Preferred cladding choice

PIR (Polyisocyanurate) insulated panels are one of the most versatile forms of lightweight construction, combining design flexibility with high performance and factory in-built quality.

Insulated panels are now the most widely used cladding system for roofs and walls. They are used in every construction sector. In addition to traditional industrial and warehouse projects, panels are now regularly specified for buildings in the retail, distribution, leisure, commercial, chill and cold stores and transport and energy sectors, as well as for hospitals, schools and apartments/single living accommodation. PIR cored panels are also used as internal walls, ceilings and linings as well as for the external envelope.
See project examples.

Refurbishment – the economic solution
Ease of installation and energy saving features resulting in accelerated payback are the principle reasons why insulated panels are one of the main products used in the refurbishment of existing buildings, helping to bring them up to current energy and airtightness standards.
