52.5mm Kingspan Kooltherm K118 Insulated Plasterboard

52.5m K118 by Kingspan Kooltherm is an innovative insulated plasterboard with superior insulation properties designed for mechanically fixed and adhesively bonded insulated drylining applications. It enables the creation of remarkably slim wall constructions while providing exceptional insulation capabilities with a thermal conductivity of 0.019 W/mK. With its all-in-one design, it functions as both insulation, drylining, and vapor control, and can be applied to solid stonework and brickwork, with or without pre-existing lining.

The 52.5mm Kooltherm Kingspan boasts several highlights, including its status as one of the thinnest Internal Wall Insulation (IWI) materials, making it ideal for buildings where internal space retention is critical, and its suitability for structures that cannot be insulated externally. Additionally, its all-in-one design provides insulation, drylining, and vapour control, while allowing for quick response heating, and its lightweight composition makes it simple to transport, handle, and install.
