Partial Fill Cavity Wall Insulation

Kingspan Kooltherm K8 Cavity Board is a premium performance insulation product, with a fiber–free rigid thermoset phenolic core, faced on both sides with a low emissivity composite foil facing which is used for insulation in partially filled cavity walls.

  • Higher R–value per inch than any commonly used insulation
  • Negligible smoke developed
  • Clear cavity is maintained – resists moisture penetration
  • Low emissivity foil facings significantly increase the thermal resistance of the cavity
  • Unaffected by air infiltration
  • Safe and easy to install – no irritative fibers produced
  • Zero ODP, low GWP, HCFC and CFC free
