Cladding Insulation

ABBEY Cladding Insulation is
» Extremely effective
» Highly Durable
» Fire Retardant, Self-Extinguishing

ABBEY offers two types of insulated wall boards
IINSUL-SL Commonly used
Thermagraphite Graphite enriched insulation

Graphite particles in Thermagraphite act as reflectors of heat, cold and sounds as they enter the cell structure – Providing in excess of 24% more insulation benefit than conventional insulation in summer and winter

Thermagraphite – Exclusively used by ABBEY Thermalboards as its graphite insulation product for over 4 years

ABBEY Thermalboards Insulated Cladding

PASSED ALL compliance requirements when evaluated in accordance with NCC 2019 Volume 2 AS/NZS 4859 Parts 1 & 2 to achieve the following:

Total Thermal Resistance, RTi = R3.24 Winter : R3.04 Summer
Corresponding Total Conductance, UTi = 0.31 w/(m²k) : 0.33 w/(m²k)

ABBEY Cladding Insulation

ABBEY’s Cladding Insulation is Extremely Effective

Stabilised air is a good insulator, and ABBEY’s cladding insulation is extremely effective because it contains finely shaped spherical particles which are 98% air – similar to that of the highest quality vacuum flasks.

ABBEY insulation material

Able to resist the adverse effects of moisture
Exceptionally strong
Manufactured in different densities
Exhibit excellent compressive and flexural strength
Has very high strength to weight ratios

ABBEY’s Cladding Insulation is Highly Durable

Our cladding insulation material has very high durability

Inert, organic material that will not rot
Highly resistant to mildew
No nutritive value to ants, termites, rodents and the likes

ABBEY’s insulation does not contain CFCs. They are HCFC free and therefore do not contribute to the depletion of the Earth’s ozone layer.

ABBEY’s Cladding Insulation is Fire Retardant, Self-Extinguishing

ABBEY cladding insulation material contains a fire retardant additive and do not present an undue fire hazard. Our insulation can be recycled during the manufacturing process with any excess ground back up and returned into the blocks.

ABBEY insulation can be used in any application that insulation and strength are required and is often combined with ABBEY aluminium cladding and vinyl cladding.

ABBEY's Types of Insulated Boards

ABBEY Thermalboards can provide two types of insulated wall boards:

IINSUL SL– plain insulation, commonly used product
Thermagraphite – graphite infused (24% higher in insulation than IINSUL-SL)

Thermagraphite Insulation

Thermagraphite

Thermagraphite is ABBEY Thermalboards’ most popular option. They are most effective in foil- covered products and even more so in ABBEY Thermalboards’ vinyl cladding.

ABBEY Thermalboards is a major user of Thermagraphite– a graphite enriched insulation

Thermagraphite is a graphite polystyrene (GPS) rigid foam insulation that is fire retardant, self-extinguishing. The material is nonhazardous according to the health criteria of the (ASCC). The blend of polystyrene and graphite is slightly denser than plain insulation. It has greater insulation performance than that of conventional expandable polystyrene (EPS) of the same density and thickness due to tiny particles of graphite that are embedded in the EPS beads to reflect and absorb radiation.
