XPS & EPS Insulation

Cavity / Internal Wall Insulation

Insulation inside the wall build-up — boards in the cavity or behind the lining that quietly stop heat at the wall line.

Cavity / Internal Wall Insulation
The Solution

One System, Built to Work Together.

Where facades can't change, the insulation goes inside: rigid boards in the cavity between leaves, or fixed to the inner face behind plasterboard and plaster.

EPS and XPS boards cut cleanly and fit tightly between wall ties and framing, upgrading thermal comfort room by room or across whole projects.

Where It's Used
  • Double-leaf cavity walls
  • Internal retrofit behind linings
