Kingspan K118 Kooltherm Insulated Plasterboard – All Thicknesses

Description

Kingspan Kooltherm K118 is a premium insulated plasterboard with a fibre-free rigid thermoset phenolic core bonded to 12.5mm tapered edge plasterboard, with a low emissivity composite foil facing on the reverse. At 0.018 W/mK it is the best-performing insulated plasterboard on the market, so it gets you to a given U-value in a thinner board than any PIR laminate. Insulation, dry-lining and vapour control in one, fixed mechanically or on plaster dabs. In stock at our Rossendale warehouse for next-day delivery or trade counter collection.

Thicknesses

Board size is 2400 x 1200mm. Total thickness is the insulation plus the 12.5mm plasterboard facing.
