Products Blow Fibreglass Attic Insulation Attic & Timber Frame Wall Insulation Thermobead Injected Cavity Wallbead System. Dry Lining Taping and Jointing
Blow Fibreglass Attic Insulation Blow Fibreglass Attic Insulation is today’s solution to meet thermal regulations for the both new build and existing loft spaces. Installation is quicker than laying conventional roll insulation and creates minimum disturbance. Blown Fibreglass will not react with any metal components in the attic or will it cause loss of plasticiser from UPVC cables and pipes. It is extremely durable material and when installed will remain as effective for the life of the building. All our fibreglass products are free from gases that are harmful to the environment such as CFC’s, HCFC’s. HFC’s and any gases that would have glabal warming prtential. Blown Fibreglass attic Insulation can also significantly improve the sound insulation of a building.
Advantages: Excellent thermal insulation Ideal for new and existing lofts (Topping Up) Quicker to install than conventional double layering of roll Improved sound insulation Standards and Approvals: British Quality Standard Exceeds Thermal Insulation for buildings specifications Factory made mineral wool products

Attic & Timber Frame Wall Insulation Multi Purpose Insulation Starting with waste newspaper as the raw material, at Carlow Insulation we process the paper into its original fibrous state and formulate the material to give the required structure and properties needed for each particular application, i.e. wall, warm roof and attic insulation for timber frame structures and attic insulation for brick and block construction. Cellulose is a non hazardous material manufactured from recycled newspaper, and is an incredibly effective insulation and what’s more it’s installed quickly and easily, simply by pumping it into place by approved installers. There’s no cutting and no access problems as one size fits all and you need less of it. You are combining ultra high insulation performance with true sustainability and environmental responsibility. As material cellulose is extremely fire resistant through the addition of simple inorganic salts. It’s also free from harmful or toxic substances including VOCs, CFCs and added formaldehyde, it’s also resistant to biological and fungal attack, it’s treated against insects and is unattractive to vermin.
Thermobead Injected Cavity Wallbead System. It has been proven that one of the most efficient ways to reduce heat loss in any building with cavity walls is to fill the walls with an insulating material. Savings of up to 30% can be achieved on fuel costs in certain cases. These figures have been supported and backed by the government energy efficiency watchdogs.
ThermoBead Hidensity offers a 15-20% improvement on all other injected cavity insulation materials. This gives significantly improved savings on all previously estimated figures leading to further reduction in fuel costs. The ThermoBead involves injecting expanded ThermoBead polystyrene in granular form, coated with an adhesive into a cavity to form an insulating mass. All materials used are completely safe and in addition to the thermal benefits, offers resistance to fungal growth and pest infestation. The fill will remain stable in the cavity, does not settle or crack and will not effect any of the fire resistance of the walls. The Savings Cavity Wall Insulation is so cost effective that it will pay for itself over and over again. The better you insulate your home the less energy you need to keep it warm and the more money you will save in the long run. In fact by insulating your cavity walls you could cut your heating cost by up to 20%. By saving energy your household will produce less CO2, so insulating your cavity walls is a great way to help fight climate change.

Dry Lining Dry Lining is an alternative to cavity wall insulation where cavity walls are not available e.g. Stone Cottages or 9” cavity wall builds, or can be used in conjunction with cavity wall and attic insulation for that extra warmth and money saving effect. How Dry Lining Works Insulation / Plaster board laminates usually consist of plaster board backed with insulating material typically to a total thickness of up to 90mm. The construction of the laminates reduces the amount of heat which would otherwise pass through into the walls and outside. Dry Lining and How it is Installed The Boards are fitted directly to the inside of the wall, the thicker the board the better the insulation. You can also attach wooden battens in-filled with insulation to the wall. This involves attaching battens to the wall, filling the spaces between the battens with insulation and then covering them with a plaster board finish. The Savings Internal wall insulation can be cheaper than external wall insulation and you could save around €550 a year on your energy bill. A three bed semi – detached house could save around 2.4 tonnes of CO2 a year.

Taping and Jointing Taping and jointing produces a smooth, continuous crack free surface which is ready for final decoration. The jointing process has 3 application stages, firstly bedding the tape and bulk filling the joint, secondly filling to take up shrinkage and then the final finish (each stage is sanded down as required).
There are several advantages using this method in comparison to traditional plastering or skimming. Quicker application time on site. No drying time No loading out and mixing of plastering materials No subsequent drying out cracks More cost effective We here at Carlow Insulation Solutions have completed many projects using this form of board finishing.
