Kingspan Insulation has relaunched its Kooltherm K10 PLUS Soffit Board, which features a non-combustible external facing for enhanced performance.
At 1.2×2.4 metres, the soffit boards have been developed for ceiling applications beneath a conditioned floor. They can be mechanically fixed to underground car parks ceilings to provide a Class 0 fire performance.
The boards have been designed with a high quality external facing to offer a pleasing aesthetic; this eliminates the need for the installation of a separate ceiling façade system.
Their fibre-free insulation core holds a Class 0 fire rating; it is pre-bonded to the non-combustible outer layer.
The core boasts a thermal conductivity of 0.020 W/m·K, which allows the boards to achieve target U-values with minimal construction thickness.
It is manufactured with a blowing agent that has zero ODP and low Global Warming Potential at Kingspan Insulation’s facilities in Pembridge and Selby.
A rundown office and warehouse building completely transformed into a modern headquarters for Atlas Copco has been fitted with more than 120 internal fire doors from Enfield Speciality Doors.
