Lambdaboard®

SUPERIOR

INSULATION

Finally an insulation material that offers you LTTR (Long Term Thermal Resistance) on top of that a life time guarantee on the R-Value.

LAMBDABOARD is a flexible-faced Polyisocyanurate (PIR) insulation board made on a continuous laminator. The polyisocyanurate cored insulation uses a hydrocarbon-based blowing agent with zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and complies with the Kyoto Protocol regarding Global Warming Potential (GWP).

LAMBDABOARD offers you the best possible solution for your insulation requirement compared to similar products in the market. LAMBDABOARD is the only product that gives you LTTR Long Term Thermal Resistance.

Regarding fire performance, LAMBDABOARD is a Thermoset material, and unlike Thermoplastic's, it won’t soften, melt or drip when exposed to flames.

Take control of your energy costs

Using Lambdaboard has been proven to reduce your energy consumption. The investment in Lambdaboard will repays it self in 2-4 years.

In a bid to remain faithful to its mantra, "Take control of your energy costs", Rigifoam recently renewed its commitment to the supply of insulation capable of reducing operational heating and cooling costs resulting in positive environmental and climate change consequences. Its launch product, LAMBDABOARD, is a unique solution to the current energy crisis.

R-VALUE PERFORMANCE

LAMBDABOARD has the highest R-value per 25mm thickness, therefore the design R-value of the insulation system can be achieved with a minimum thickness. This in turn allows the overall footprint of the building to decrease and reduces the cost of construction.

Installing Lambdaboard will have positive impact on the HAVC system required, reducing the requirements for over engineered systems, thus having an effect on energy consumption required to run the HAVC system. Putting money back in your pocket.

Obtain estimates for your potential energy savings and the projected temperature variances between outdoor and indoor environments.

These estimations are based on various configurations of Lambdaboard® insulation in a hypothetical scenario without the presence of an HVAC system or roofing insulation.

Furthermore, you can anticipate reduction in your energy expenses, stated in Rand per square meter, on an annual basis by incorporating Lambdaboard® insulation whilst aligning with the SANS 10400 XA ED2 regulations.

The regulations were designed to counter act the dramatic climate change and the degradation of the planet. The South African Government promulgated the SANS 10400 XA building codes, in order to reduce greenhouse emissions These regulations are designed to reduce energy usage and pollution in the built environment.

Lambdaboard has a proven R-Value and a Long-Term Thermal Resistance (LTTR) and will outlive the life span of the building, reducing the future building envelope’s energy consumption and demand, compared to similar thermoplastic products in the market.

Lambdaboard is a member of PIMA (Polyisocyanurate Manufactures Association) with has a proven track record in LTTR and sustainability.

Lambdaboard provides 30% saving energy consumption. 70% of heat loss can be found in the roof of a structure. Lambdaboard can reduce this by 100% so that no heat is lost via the roof structure.
