High performance insulation boards, such as the Mannok insulation range, can achieve excellent U-values thanks to the excellent thermal conductivity of the boards of as low as 0.022W/mK, improving the overall energy performance of the building.

These insulation products can help specifiers to combat thermal bridging issues and achieve passive house and nZEB standards, particularly when used in conjunction with Mannok’s aircrete blocks.

combatting thermal bridging

Mannok offer a full range of insulation boards to cater for wall insulation, floor insulation and roof insulation applications. The insulation boards are suitable for both commercial and domestic applications as well as new build and retrofit projects and are designed to be compatible with other essential products within a build.

Despite the strength and durability of insulation boards, they are very light in weight, making them easy to transport and handle. These boards are also easy to work with, cut and fit, making them a very practical insulation solution.

For Mannok, the lightweight nature of our insulation boards make them a key part of our mixed loads delivery solutions, where lorries that are unable to carry full loads of heavy materials due to weight restrictions, are filled out with our insulation products to ensure we are dispatching full loads of product. This unique solution reduces the environmental impact of our deliveries and offers greater flexibility to our customers.

It is essential to ensure your insulation is suitable for the application in terms of strength and durability. Mannok’s PIR and EPS insulation products are designed to perform for the service life of the building. Mannok’s PIR boards have compressive strength of over 150kPa and Mannok’s EPS boards have compressive strengths ranging from 70-200kPa.

The environmental impact of construction products is an increasingly important consideration as we aim to build more sustainable and efficient buildings. Contractors and specifiers are more than ever choosing to work with insulation boards which achieve and exceed industry requirements that are manufactured in the most sustainable way.

Mannok’s PIR insulation has an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of zero. It has a low Global Warming Potential (GWP) and is certified to ISO 14001 – Environmental Management Systems.

Mannok also operates an extensive People, Planet, Partners Programme, which ensures every area of the business is focused on producing and supplying quality goods in a way that has minimum impact on the world we live in, whilst making a positive contribution to the local areas we operate in and the people we work with.

Mannok’s PIR insulation products have been tested to BS EN 13501-1 to achieve Euro class rating. Mannok’s PIR rigid boards also have a Class 1 rating when tested to BS 476-7.

Mannok’s EPS insulation boards contain a flame-retardant additive (FRA) which makes them more difficult to ignite. EPS 70 is class F which is suitable for most applications. This is also available in class E along with other Mannok EPS insulation products.
