Product catalog summary
Overview
Spacetherm® F is a high-performance laminate combining Fermacell's fire resistance and hanging strength with Spacetherm® aerogel insulation. It is designed for applications requiring low U-values in limited spaces, offering similar performance to traditional plasterboard laminates but with reduced thickness.

Key Features
  • Thin insulation system for challenging walls.
  • Superior thermal performance.
  • Minimal room space loss.
  • Long-term thermal performance (50+ years).
  • Integrated vapour control layer.
  • Unique fire resistance and hanging strength up to 50kg per fixing.
  • Non-hazardous material.

Installation
Spacetherm® F is fixed using stainless steel wood screws to timber straps with a DPC backing. Fixings should be no more than 500mm apart. Drilling is not recommended but may be necessary for wiring, requiring care to avoid insulation fiber damage.

Internal & External Angles
Panels should be cut to allow jointing of plasterboard and continuous insulation to existing walls. Refer to the Installation Guide for details.

Partition Walls
For partitions abutting external walls with Spacetherm® F, the lining should ideally return onto the partition or stop at the junction.

Physical Properties
  • Panel sizes: 2400 x 1200mm
  • Fermacell thickness: 10mm
  • Aerogel thickness: 5, 10, 15mm
  • Vapour Control Layer: 58.5 MNs/g
  • K-Factor: Fermacell 0.210W/mK, Aerogel 0.015W/mK
  • Fire Resistance: Fermacell Class 0, Aerogel Class C-s1, d0

U-value Performance
U-values vary based on thickness, with a base wall performance of 2.09 W/m2K improving significantly with Spacetherm F on battens.

Reveals
Spacetherm® WRB is designed for fixing to existing walls, with similar treatment for reveals at windows and doors.

Floor & Ceiling Details
Skirting boards should be removed and reapplied after installation. Panels should be cut close to the ceiling, with gaps filled using PU Foam or plaster filler.

Taping & Filling Joints
Panels should be cleaned, taped, and filled before decoration. A skim coat may be applied if needed.

Cutting
Spacetherm® F can be cut with a jigsaw or circular saw, taking care not to damage insulation layers. Cut-outs for sockets and switches should be made before fixing boards.

Health & Safety
Handling and cutting Spacetherm® F may cause skin drying; gloves and dust masks are recommended. Ensure good ventilation and use appropriate personal protection equipment. Lift boards from the middle without bending.

Spacetherm F-1

THERMAL SOLUTIONS OVERVIEW Spacetherm® F (fermacell) is a high performance laminate which incorporates the unique fire resistance and hanging strength of Fermacell. Specifically designed to be fixed to timber straps Spacetherm® F consists of Spacetherm® aerogel insulation blanket bonded to Fermacell board, for use in applications where low U-values are required with limited space. Spacetherm® F lining boards can achieve similar performance to traditional plasterboard laminates, but at a fraction of the thickness, allowing specifiers greater flexibility and higher performance for refurbishment projects. Thin insulation system for hard to treat walls. The best thermal performance available. Minimum loss of room space. Constant long term thermal performance 50 years+. Includes an integrated vapour control layer. Unique fire resistance properties. Hanging strength of up to 50Kgs per fixing. Non-hazardous material. Image showing Spacetherm® F applied internally to an existing external wall structure. INSTALLATION Spacetherm® F can be fixed using SCS stainless steel wood screws to timber straps with a DPC backing, also available from A. Proctor Group. Fixings should be at no more than 500mm centres. Although drilling is not recommended it may be required for wiring and services. When drilling, care should be taken to compress the panel as much as possible to reduce the risk of insulation fibres wrapping around the drill bit. Image showing Spacetherm® F components, Aerogel insulation bonded to Fermacell board. INTERNAL & EXTERNAL ANGLES Spacetherm® panels should be cut in such a way as to allow for the jointing of the plasterboard and an unbroken run of insulation to the existing wall in both internal and external angles. Refer to Installation Guide for further details. PARTITION WALLS Where an internal partition abutts an external wall with Spacetherm® F lining, ideally Spacetherm® F should be returned onto the partition or alternatively stopped at the junction.

THERMAL SOLUTIONS REVEALS Spacetherm® WRB (window reveal board) is a high performance laminate specifically designed to be fixed or glued to the existing solid wall. Spacetherm® WRB consists of Spacetherm® aerogel insulation blanket bonded to plasterboard or fermacell with or without plywood reinforcement. For use in applications where low U-values are required with limited space. Any reveals such as those which may occur at windows, doors etc, should be treated in the same manner as the internal and external angles mentioned above. Refer to Installation Guide for further details. Physical Properties...
