Isover XH

Product characteristics

Insulating boards made of basalt mineral wool, the production of which is based on the method of pulping the melt of a mixture of rocks, recycled material and other ingredients. The created mineral fibers are processed into the final shape of the boards within the production line. These boards are hydrophobized in the entire volume and have mainly longitudinal fiber orientation. The boards must be protected in a suitable way in the structure (vapour-proof foil, waterproofing, spreading layer of a flat roof, etc.).

Usage

Isover XH boards are mainly intended for performing thermal, sound and fireproof insulation of single-skin flat roofs with the highest requirements for pressure loads and frequent traffic. Mineral boards are always applied dry, they are usually laid in one upper layer, which protects the thermal layer below. A suitable combination is with Isover T, Isover R, Isover LAM 70, 50 and 30 boards, which are laid as a bottom layer, with the Isover SD and Isover DK drop system, as well as with Isover AK attic wedges, which help the transition of waterproofing from horizontal to vertical direction. A waterproofing layer (glued, anchored or weighted) is most often applied directly to Isover XH boards. In the case of planned frequent revisions of the roof and technological equipment, it is necessary to design walkways that prevent the formation of depressions in places of walking.

Packaging, transport, storage

Isover XH insulating boards are packed in PE foil up to a maximum height of 1.3 m. The boards must be transported in covered means of transport under conditions that exclude their wetting or other deterioration. They are stored in covered dry areas lying down to a maximum layer height of 2 m.
