50mm GG500

Kingspan GreenGuard 50mm GG500 is a high-performance, rigid insulation board made up of extruded polystyrene designed for exterior insulation, including the insulation of inverted roofs, basements, car park decks, and heavy-duty commercial, industrial, and cold store flooring. The GG500 boards have excellent compressive strength and a closed cell structure that is moisture resistant and rejects the absorption of groundwater and the passage of water vapour.

Key Features:

• High-performance rigid extruded polystyrene insulation with low thermal conductivity.
• High compressive strength.
• Resistant to ground moisture penetration
• Easy to handle and install.
• Rebated Edges
• Compressive strength (minimum) at 10% compression – 300kPa
• Fibre-free rigid extruded polystyrene insulant
• Resistant to most dilute acids and alkalis
• Available for new builds or refurbishments

The Kingspan GreenGuard brand selection offers extruded polystyrene (XPS) insulation boards in a range of sizes, air barrier building wraps and accessories, including flashing.
The XPS insulation board offers an R–value of 5.0 per inch of thickness and is the ideal product for a variety of applications including below slab, below grade along the foundation, inside basement walls, exterior insulation over wood sheathing and residing.
Rigid extruded polystyrene insulation (XPS) can also be used as general-purpose insulation for multiple applications including, roofing, wall and foundation applications requiring a minimum compressive strength.
Continuous insulation for above grade walls, as well as below grade walls and floors provides an extra barrier against moisture infiltration.
Each insulation product achieves the necessary fire performance for its intended application.

GreenGuard products are easily identifiable by their bright green colour. In addition to creating healthier, durable, and cost-efficient assemblies, GreenGuard products can help projects to meet environmental building certification requirements.

Cutting:

Kingspan Greenguard GG500 can be cut by measuring and marking to board to ensure an accurate fit and cutting with a fine-toothed saw on higher surface to allow the saw to cut through. Other ways to cut GG500 is to use a hot wire system or by scoring with a sharp knife and snapping the board over a edge and scoring the other side if necessary. Ensure accurate trimming to accomplish close-butting joints and continuity of insulation to avoid thermal bridging.

Packaging and Storage:

The polyethylene packaging of Kingspan Insulation products is fully recyclable and packaging materials should not be considered sufficient for outside protection. The boards should be stored on a flat surface inside a well-ventilated building. If, however, indoor storage is not an option, then the boards should be stacked clear of the ground and protected with a pale pigmented polythene sheet or weatherproof material. Kingspan GreenGuard should not be left exposed to the sun covered by either a transparent or a dark plastic sheet. In both cases the temperature of the board can build up and alter the board dimensions or warp them.

Please note Kingspan GreenGuard may be delivered in packaging showing alternative branding.
