+44 (0)1293 582400 Website

Application

  • Suitable for use with concrete soffits where thermal or acoustic performance is required.
  • Suitable for exposed and semi-exposed applications depending on the insulation material used.

Description

AIM High Impact Soffit Liner Boards are used to provide an insulated lining to semi-exposed soffits. They can also be used as internal linings for walls and ceilings, especially where robustness is required. They are available with a choice of insulation backing boards, typically stonewool or rigid foams such as phenolic, PIR or XPS. The fibre cement facing board can be easily decorated to match design and colour schemes. Pre-decorated and through-coloured facing boards are available.


Features and benefits:

  • Choice of insulation materials available (stonewool/ phenolic/ PIR/ XPS).
  • 6 mm High impact facing boards.
  • Non standard sizes also available.
  • Pre-decorated and through-coloured facing boards are available.
  • Stonewool option incorporates an A1 insulation with an A1 grade facing board.
  • Can help achieve thermal performance of the construction.
  • Thicknesses to suit the thermal resistance (U Value) required.
  • Choice of insulation materials to suit the thermal resistance required.
  • Provides protection to the underside of soffits, especially in car parks.
  • Mineral fibre backed boards can contribute to the overall acoustic performance of the soffit/ floor construction.

Extruded polystyrene (XPS).

Guidance for specification option:

Small closed cell extruded polystyrene for optimum insulation, high compressive strength and resistance to moisture.

Expanded polystyrene (EPS).

Guidance for specification option:

Versatile expanded polystyrene for optimum value and light weight.

PIR.

Guidance for specification option:

Low thermal conductivity for thinner solutions.

Phenolic (PHN).

Guidance for specification option:

Phenolic foam has very low thermal conductivity.

Durability

AIM Soffit Liner Boards are chemically inert, will not sustain vermin and do not encourage the growth of rot, fungi, moulds or bacteria. They do not degrade under the usual conditions found in buildings and will perform effectively for the life of the building.

Environmental

Global warming potential = zero.

Guidance for specification option:

AIM High Impact Soffit Liner Boards are manufactured from a variety of insulation materials, most of which recognised as being a sustainable and environmentally friendly materials.

Compatibility

Compatible with all normal building materials.
