Kingspan Insulation has added STEICO flex 036 and STEICO universal dry to its full spectrum of insulation products.
The wood fibre boards are manufactured using softwoods sourced from PEFC certified forests and form part of Kingspan’s BioKor range, made of a minimum 80% bio-genic content.
STEICO flex 036 has a thermal conductivity of 0.036 W/mK, and is suitable for friction fit installation between rafters or studs in roofs, external walls and internal partitions.
STEICO universal dry is a wood fibre insulation sarking and sheathing board. It can be fitted as an above-rafter sarking board on roofs with pitches of ≥ 14 degrees, with STEICO flex 036 fully filling the rafters below. It can also be used as a sheathing board on the outer face of timber frame wall studwork, with STEICO flex 036 friction fitted between the studs.
The boards feature tongue and groove edges which can help to streamline installation and support insulation continuity across wall or roof constructions. STEICO universal dry has a thermal conductivity of 0.043 W/mK.
Both STEICO flex 036 and STEICO universal dry are manufactured under a management system certified to DIN EN ISO 9001: 2015 (Quality management systems) and DIN EN ISO 14001: 2015 (Environmental management systems).
