37.5mm K118 by Kingspan Kooltherm is a high-performance insulated plasterboard engineered for mechanically fixed and adhesively bonded internal wall applications. This all-in-one solution delivers insulation, drylining, and vapour control in a single board, achieving exceptional thermal performance with a conductivity rating of 0.019 W/mK. The slim profile enables space-efficient wall constructions whilst maintaining superior insulation capabilities, making it suitable for solid stonework and brickwork surfaces, whether pre-lined or unlined.
The 37.5mm Kooltherm Kingspan offers distinct advantages for projects where internal space is at a premium. As one of the thinnest Internal Wall Insulation (IWI) options available, it suits buildings where external insulation is impractical. The integrated drylining and vapour barrier eliminate the need for additional layers, whilst the lightweight construction simplifies handling and installation on site.

This premium rigid thermoset phenolic insulation board combines outstanding thermal resistance with practical multi-functionality. With a thermal conductivity of 0.019 W/mK, it provides insulation, drylining, and integrated vapour control without additional components. The board prevents air leakage and resists moisture vapour transmission, whilst remaining straightforward to cut, fit, and finish. Ideal for new builds, retrofits, and refurbishment schemes, it's manufactured using a zero ODP, low GWP blowing agent.
The 37.5mm Kingspan product suits diverse construction scenarios including cavity masonry wall systems, solid wall constructions, timber frame assemblies, ceiling installations, metal furring arrangements, direct mechanical fixing to masonry, and both horizontal and sloped ceiling linings.
Deploying the slim profile of Kingspan k118 insulated plasterboard maximises usable floor area within properties, boosting lettable space, market value, and appeal to occupants and investors alike.
Our commitment to environmental responsibility is reflected through Kooltherm's inclusion in our Planet Passionate sustainability programme.
The 37.5mm K118 insulated plasterboard features a rigid, thermoset, fibre-free phenolic insulation core manufactured with a zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and low Global Warming Potential (GWP) blowing agent.
