Insulation Support

EJOT UK provides a comprehensive range of insulation fixings and insulation screws designed for the secure and long-lasting attachment of thermal insulation boards to various substrates. These specialised fasteners are engineered to prevent thermal bridging, which can compromise the energy efficiency of a building. The system typically involves a combination of screws, anchors, and insulation washers to ensure a reliable and uniform pressure distribution across the insulation board.

A key component is the insulation anchor, which is selected based on the specific substrate, whether it's concrete, brick, or lightweight blocks. The anchor provides a secure point of attachment, while the corresponding screws fasten the insulation board firmly in place.4 EJOT's product line includes solutions tailored for different insulation types and thicknesses, ensuring optimal performance and compliance with building regulations.

For example, for use with rigid foam boards, such as PIR insulation, screws are specifically designed to penetrate the dense material without crushing it, providing a strong and stable connection. The integrated or separate insulation washer plays a crucial role by distributing the load evenly over a larger surface area of the insulation board, preventing damage and ensuring the board remains flush against the wall. This holistic approach to insulation fixings ensures that the thermal envelope of a building remains intact, contributing to lower energy consumption and a more comfortable indoor environment. By using these specialised fasteners, installers can achieve a secure, high-performance, and thermally efficient installation every time.
