Insulation and Thermal Insulation Boards – termPIR®

Gór-Stal is a manufacturer of termPIR^® insulation boards, whose thermal insulation properties provide an unmatched way to increase the energy efficiency of buildings. The system meets even the most demanding requirements of EU regulations. Our thermal insulation boards are characterized by a low thermal conductivity coefficient λ_D = 0.022 [W/m*K]. This allows the use of a thinner insulation layer that does not reduce the usable floor space of the building. Such results cannot be achieved using traditional materials such as polystyrene or mineral wool.

termPIR^® insulation boards are used, among others, for insulating pitched roofs, attics, lofts, flat roofs and terraces, as well as walls, ceilings, basements, foundations, and floors.

Advantages of termPIR^® thermal insulation boards

Polyisocyanurate is used in the production of termPIR^® insulation boards. This material is sometimes also referred to as polyisocyanurate (and boards made from it as polyisocyanurate boards; this is a direct translation from English, incorrect from the perspective of chemical nomenclature).

Polyisocyanurate is a derivative of polyurethane, but it has significantly better properties, especially those related to fire resistance. Isocyanurate structures in foams decompose at temperatures above 300°C and partially carbonize. The carbonized layer protects against heat penetration through the board, providing effective fire protection (the same feature is present in our sandwich panels with a PIR core).

Advantages of termPIR^® insulation boards:

• possibility of using a thinner insulation layer (thinner than in the case of traditional materials),
• low weight,
• versatility and a wide range of applications,
• very high compressive strength,
• resistance to high temperatures and moisture absorption.
