PIR Insulation Boards: choosing well

Sealing joints

Tape the joints with foil tape so the foil layer works as a continuous vapour control layer where the design relies on it.

Fire considerations

PIR is a combustible product. Building regulations restrict combustible materials in some situations, such as external walls of taller buildings; check what applies.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

How much will you need?

Insulating 24 m² of rafters, floor or wall takes 9 boards of 2400 × 1200 mm including offcuts. The thickness depends on the U-value you need, so check it before you order. Try the insulation calculator

Planning the drop in Abingdon

Boards are light but bulky; they travel in wrapped packs and should be stored flat and dry. Abingdon is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around OX14 are priced to the exact address.
• In summer Abingdon gets around 16h 40m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Your questions answered

Can you deliver PIR insulation boards to a site with restricted access in Abingdon?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

What is the foil for?

The foil facing reflects heat, protects the foam and, when joints are taped, can act as a vapour control layer.

How thick should PIR insulation be?

It depends on where it goes and the U-value required. Pitched roofs often need 100 mm or more between and under rafters; floors and walls vary. Use the maker's U-value tables or ask your designer.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Abingdon?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
