Thin-R Tapered Roof [TR/ALU]

Product catalog summary
Overview: Xtratherm TR/ALU is a high-performance tapered roof insulation designed for use with mechanically fixed single ply waterproofing systems. It features a polyisocyanurate (PIR) core with vapour-tight aluminium foil facings, offering solutions for both new builds and refurbishment projects.
Key Features:
  • High-performance rigid insulation with a thermal conductivity of 0.022W/mK.
  • Approved by LPC/FM and compatible with single ply waterproofing systems.
  • Non-deleterious material, manufactured without CFCs/HCFCs, ensuring zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and low global warming potential (GWP).
  • Provides a practical solution to water ponding by integrating insulation and drainage.
Specifications:
  • Sheet size: 1200mm x 1200mm, with a minimum thickness of 30mm.
  • Fire performance depends on the specified waterproofing system, tested to BS 476 Part 3: 2004.
  • Suitable for roof decks subject to maintenance traffic only; walkways are recommended for regular access.
Installation Guidelines:
  • Should be laid over a separate vapour control layer, typically a 1000 gauge polythene, with all joints lapped and sealed.
  • Mechanical fixings with washers are used to secure both the insulation and waterproof membranes.
  • Not recommended for use with built-up bitumen-based roofing or mastic asphalt systems.
Design Considerations:
  • U-value calculations and condensation risk analysis should be conducted according to BS 5250:2002.
  • Roof design should consider recommendations from BS 4841: Part 3 and the Single Ply Roofing Association (SPRA).
Environmental and Safety Standards:
  • Manufactured to EN ISO 13165, with quality systems approved to EN ISO 9001:2008, EN ISO 14001:2004, and BS OHSAS 18001.
  • Stable and rot-proof, ensuring durability for the building's lifespan.
Storage and Handling:
  • Boards must be protected from weather conditions and stored in dry conditions.
  • Can be cut using a sharp knife or fine-toothed saw for tight fitting.
Availability: Xtratherm products are available through builders' merchants and specialist distributors in the UK and Ireland.
