90mm Expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation board delivers exceptional thermal performance for external wall insulation systems. This premium material substantially improves building thermal efficiency, enhances U-values, and minimises water ingress and condensation risks. The 90mm boards work seamlessly with timber, masonry, system-built properties, tile hanging, and numerous rendering finishes. Installation involves fixing to masonry or timber-backed walls using adhesive and mechanical fixings, with cavity void installation also available for cavity wall insulation applications.
90mm Stylite Plustherm Grey EPS 70 Insulation Board remains the preferred choice for external wall insulation systems, offering outstanding performance at competitive pricing. Selecting this cost-effective 90mm EPS board delivers excellent value without sacrificing quality or thermal performance standards.
For EWI system installation, applicators benefit from reduced material costs. The lightweight nature of EPS means lower-strength adhesive requirements and plastic rather than metal fixings are sufficient. Since 90mm Stylite EPS is non-breathable, you can use economical thin coat renders, including EWI-075 Silicone Render or EWI-040 Acrylic Render.
90mm Stylite Expanded Polystyrene insulation boards provide an excellent solution for external wall insulation projects. These boards attach securely to existing wall substrates, delivering immediate improvements to both aesthetic appeal and thermal performance. Applying insulation to the external wall surface rather than internally significantly reduces the likelihood of interstitial condensation developing within the wall structure.
Stylite 90mm External Wall Insulation board accommodates diverse wall types, from solid brick construction to timber frame walls. External wall insulation typically receives a rendered protective coating to shield the insulation material. Finish application methods depend on the specific system chosen. Furthermore, 90mm Stylite EWI boards perform well in rail or drained cavity EWI configurations.
Deploy netting on scaffolding to prevent polystyrene debris dispersal during windy conditions. We strongly advise using a hot knife or hot wire cutters to minimise polystyrene offcuts; however, standard knives work if necessary. Whenever possible, cut the 90mm EPS insulation boards within a sheltered area to prevent offcuts from scattering.
Always follow the manufacturer's installation specifications for EPS insulation boards, ensuring comprehensive coverage of design and application requirements. Initially, secure the EPS boards to the substrate (masonry or timber) using mortar/adhesive or mechanical fixings.
After securing the boards to an external wall, apply a protective outer layer such as a mortar basecoat or netting to guard against excessive heat, moisture, and UV damage.
Before applying the basecoat or mortar with fibreglass mesh, rasp or sand the board surface to achieve an abrasive finish suitable for mesh application. Once complete, the substrate is prepared for fibreglass mesh installation. Consult the full installation guide for comprehensive instructions.
Verify the manufacturer's expiry date for shelf life information. Store in dry conditions within original packaging. Protect from excessive heat and direct UV exposure.
