Insulation for Ceilings
Looking for the best solution to insulate your ceiling? Tell us about your project and find the perfect fit.
Ceiling insulation plays a crucial role in improving the energy efficiency and comfort of a building. Because heat naturally rises, a significant amount of warmth can escape through an uninsulated or poorly insulated ceiling. Effective insulation creates a thermal barrier that helps keep warm air inside during colder months and prevents excessive heat from entering during warmer months.
Which insulation to choose for the ceiling?
Insulation offers some insulation solutions and advice for ceiling insulation.
If the unheated and uninhabited space (e.g. an attic space) is difficult to access or there is insufficient construction height, you can opt to provide the insulation under the floor, i.e. on the ceiling side of the heated space.
Under no circumstances should ceiling insulation be installed under a flat roof without a prior thorough architectural study to prevent condensation problems.
Why PIR Insulation?
PIR (Polyisocyanurate) insulation is a great choice for ceiling applications, offering standout thermal performance in a slim, lightweight profile. Its high compressive strength and rigid board format make installation fast, clean, and suitable for a wide range of ceiling constructions - from residential loft conversions to large‑scale commercial buildings.. PIR’s dimensional stability ensures long‑term performance without sagging or settling, while its moisture‑resistant foam core helps protect the building fabric from condensation risks.
