Pavatex-NBT Pavatherm
Wood fibre insulation board
‘Application: roofing and breathing wall construction.
Pavatherm is a woodfibre board to EN 13171: Fibreboards for building constructions; Insulation material for thermal protection. The board does not contain any glue nor wood preservers.
Pavatherm is quality monitored by the FMPA Stuttgart.
Pavatherm is applied in roof constructions (inter beam and over beam constructions) and in wall constructions.
Boards are supplied in standard size of 1020 mm x 600 mm (thicknesses of 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 90, 100mm), 1020 x 2050 mm (thickness of 40 and 60 mm).
The edges of Pavatherm insulation boards are straight.
Pavatherm is effective in reducing the U value (thermal transmittance), in improving acoustic sound protection and summer heat protection (decrement delay). Pavatherm guarantees an active breathing housing. Pavatherm can be used in new and renovation buildings.
Pavatherm is applied in over rafter and inter rafter insulations as well as in timber construction walls. Pavatherm is not waterresistant. Therefore it must be protected with a water-resistant layer as Isolair "L" or a breather, waterproof membrane.'
