Getting PIR insulation boards onto your Chelmsford site

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

• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around CM1 are priced to the exact address.
• In summer Chelmsford gets around 16h 41m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• On busy streets in Chelmsford, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Choosing PIR insulation boards

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.

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.

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.
