Cavity Wall Insulation

Most common type of External Wall Insulation, also referred as sandwich wall insulation. Where Insulation is sandwiched between two substrates of construction like Concrete or Block wall, Precast concrete panels or combination. Cavity is generally referred to a void formed between these substrates and to avoid thermal transfer between the substrates the cavity is filled with material having very low thermal conductivity so is called Cavity wall Insulation.

SRW offers wide range of Rigid and Semi Rigid Rockwool Insulation Boards suitable to use with in the cavity manufactured in accordance with ASTM C 612 & BS EN 13162 & various other international Standards. Product can be selected in a combination of thickness and density suitable to match thermal performance desired.

SRW Cavity Board can be supplied un-faced or Factory Applied Vapor Barrier (FSK) or Breathable membrane in accordance with Project requirements.
