Features and Benefits

Fire Protection: Featuring a distinctive pink paper face, this board delivers 30 minutes of fire protection in a single application, making it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, toilets, walls, and ceiling insulation. Stack two layers to achieve up to 60 minutes of fire resistance, enhancing safety in demanding environments.

Thermal Performance: The PIR foam core achieves thermal conductivity of 0.022 W/mK, whilst the fire-rated plasterboard layer reaches 0.24 W/mK, combining to boost overall thermal efficiency across your installation.

Vapour Control: A composite kraft facing on both sides incorporates an integral vapour barrier, effectively minimising condensation risk and delivering a robust, long-lasting insulation system.

Versatility: This drylining board suits numerous wall configurations in both renovation and new construction projects, accepting either plaster finishes or direct decoration for maximum design flexibility.

Ease of Installation: The Unilin XT/TL-FR insulated plasterboard cuts easily with a sharp knife or fine-toothed saw. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling to maintain safety standards.

Note: For applications requiring a 60-minute fire rating, an additional layer of fire plasterboard can be applied over the Unilin XT/TL-FR insulated plasterboard.
