ECO360 MA FAQ

What is a U-Value?

Definition

A U-value measures the rate of heat transfer through a building element, expressed in watts per square meter per kelvin (W/m²K). Lower U-values indicate better insulation performance, making them essential for energy-efficient building design.

Importance

  • Ensures compliance with Building Regulations (UK & Ireland).
  • Guides material selection for walls, roofs, and floors.
  • Reduces energy consumption and heating costs.

Applications

  • Achieved using PIR boards like ECO/CT, ECO/CW, ECO/MA, XtroLiner, Safe-R, and Thin-R.
  • Critical in cavity walls, pitched and flat roofs, drylining, and framing board applications.
  • Helps designers calculate R-values and overall thermal performance for compliance.

Best Practice Tips

  • Use U-value calculators considering all layers, including PIR boards and finishes.
  • Minimise thermal bridging by detailing junctions carefully.
  • Match insulation type to intended application and thickness constraints.

What is Bio-Enhanced PIR Insulation?

Definition

Bio-enhanced PIR insulation utilises renewable or recycled materials to minimise environmental impact while maintaining high thermal efficiency.

Benefits

  • Reduced carbon footprint.
  • High-performance λ-values (0.020–0.022 W/mK).
  • Suitable for green building certifications.

Applications

  • ECO/CT, ECO/CW, ECO/MA, XtroLiner, Safe-R, Thin-R, FR/ALU​, FR/MG.
  • Suitable for walls, roofs, floors, and drylining in sustainable projects.

Best Practice Tips

  • Confirm building compliance and performance requirements.
  • Use with VCL for optimal moisture control.
