Gorlice, Poland

Gor-Stal's Thermal Insulation Board Business increases the level of energy efficiency of the building by using thermal insulation properties. The system meets even the most stringent requirements of EU regulations. Its thermal insulation boards are characterized by a low thermal conductivity coefficient (λ = 0.022 W / mK). This enables the use of a thinner insulation layer that does not reduce the usable area of ​​the building. We will not get such effects using traditional materials such as polystyrene or mineral wool. Its insulation boards are used, among others, for insulation of pitched roofs, attics, attics, flat roofs and terraces, insulation of walls, ceilings, basements, foundations, and floors. Thermal insulation board uses polyisocyanurate for the production of IZOPROOF thermal insulation boards. This material is also sometimes called polyisocyanurate (and plates made of it - polyisocyanurate plates ; it is tracing paper from the English language, wrong from the point of view of chemical nomenclature).
