What Makes PIR Insulation the Best in Modern Times?

Polyisocyanurate can be fundamentally understood as an advancement of polyurethane. It is indeed much stronger in nature and holds very good thermal resistance characteristic. These are known for their greater R-values per density for any product for insulation in modern times. However, there are various other reasons as explained below for PIR rigid boards explained below, which make it such popular in modern times.

Greater Thermal Performance and Fire Safety:
Usage of Polyisocyanurate Rigid Board as the coatings in various products is very much popular in modern times. It won’t be wrong to claim that these are the most preferred options for coatings or insulations. Anyway, the first characteristic of PIR insulation that makes it handy is its greater thermal performance.

These insulations can indeed offer a greater thermal conductivity in comparison with most of its contemporaries. Once can always feel safe from fire with PIR insulation. These materials don’t get melted even being exposed with the fires.

Cost-effective:–
Despite showing best characteristics as an insulation option, these products are way cost-effective in nature. Being significantly lesser in price, these products are highly preferred for the high-end construction projects. The best part, the chances of loss of material or excess spending of goods is very less with these products. 



Greater Applicability:
PIR duct and PIR rigid board can be applied with various applications, which are considered highly useful in contemporary times. Starting from crawl zones, vaulted tops, to different ceiling patterns, these products can be effective in various applications.

Better Strength, Endurance, and Resistance –
PIR boards are very much enduring in nature, in comparison with many others. Being primarily applied with enclosed cell material, it usually doesn’t absorb the water. In short, the thermal and constructional efficacy of the insulation provided stays intact for a greater period. These structures are also known to provide greater strength to the end products. Moreover, PIR boards can be applied with a great range of materials; perhaps the highest in comparison with most others. There are various insulation materials, which can’t be used with number of others. But, PIR can be combined with most of its kind.   

Light-weight, Easy-to Install:
PIR products are known for their greater thermal ability and strength. At the same time, these products are absolutely light in nature as well. It means these products are the handiest of their kind from usability and installation point of views. PIRs being fit with any kind of installation become more beneficial from economical point of views as well.  

One can expect a greater lifetime of the product provided with PIR insulation. PIRs are known for their ability to maintain the humidity and temperature perfectly. Naturally, the air quality can be thoroughly maintained as well. Hence, the product enjoys a greater lifetime. 


There are a great range of products coming in modern times with PIR insulation. However, only the certified products should be taken in to account for the best performance. One should look for Green Building Council certification product to ensure about a greater quality. At the same time ensuring best performance, such certified products can assure from environmental point of views as well.

Usage of a Grille and Polyisocyanurate Rigid Foam In Insulation

Overview of a Grille

A grille is a metal bar or a wire placed somewhere as a protection or to allow some ventilation or a discreet observation. It consists of several slits side by side in a metal sheet or a wall in order to let the air pass and is an opening in a passage to let the supply of air or water enter or flow out. There is something called the ABS Grille Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, is a thermoplastic polymer majorly used within marine, refrigeration or cooling, and used in other industrial applications.

Features, Options &Characteristics

A grille is mostly very durable, rust free, light weight, compact resistant, with the various different options of grilles that are Framelessbar grille, Bar grille, Single deflection, Double deflection grille, etc.  A number of options are available for the functionality of your air conditioning. The various phenomenal properties of ABS are – it has a very high impact strength and ductility, its highly resistant to condensation, it is resistant to abrasion, it has light weight, its temperature rating is broad, etc.

Types of grille

There are a number of different types of grilles, such as:
  • Open grille- it is one of the simplest grilles. It is mostly used for high heat direct grilling.
  • Covered grille- used for grilling large or thick food items. Also used for smoking and indirect grilling.
  • Vessel grille- used with the help of a kamado cooker for high heat roasting, smoking and grilling. Etc.
  • Rotisserie Grill- it’s a combination of direct and indirect grilling.
  • Smoker- it’s used majorly for smoking low to moderate temperatures indirect grilling with the help of wood smoke.
  • Open Pit and Campfire-Style – majorly used for radiant heat roasting.

The ABS is made for general usage of for applications indoors, majorly suitable for duct ware, extract in walls, ceilings, etc.






























Rigid Foam Insulation Overview

As we all know that what insulation stands for. It is simply a process of keeping sound, heat or electricity from spreading and insulation material is required to bring about this. The material used for insulation is prevents any transmission of heat, sound or electricity. Now let’s have a look at what is Polyisocyanurate Rigid Foam.


Polyisocyanurate Rigid Foam on the other hand is a Rigid Foam Insulation that consists of a foam coat sandwiched between two faces, where Polyiso stands for a closed-cell.  The main purpose of a rigid board is that it is made use in the commercial markets as well as residential areas for the application of top roof as well as side walls. There are other uses of PIR foam as well which includes commercial and industrial pipe insulation along with machining/carving media. But remember that certain health problems are attached to it too as PIR insulation can create irritation to human or animal eyes, skin and respiratory organs. Although no such health risk is mentioned in any of the studies so far that mentions about the diseases caused by it.

The Effectiveness of A Generic Product Used for Insulation of ACMV Systems

Insulation is the process of keeping electricity, sound or heat from spreading and it involves insulation material to do so. If while sleeping at night you are able to heat your neighbor snoring that simply means that you require better sound insulation. Even if it’s freezing outside the hot chocolate kept in your thermos stays warm that is because your thermos provides insulation. Similarly, when it’s steaming hot outside your ice chests can still carry your sodas and ice very cool in it that is because the ice chest provides insulation. The state of being isolated or dethatched is also termed as insulation.

The material used for the purpose of insulation always protects the surrounding and prevents the transmission of heat, sound or electricity. Therefore it diminishes, reduces or completely prevents the transmission of heat, sound or electricity. Now, there is something called ACMV which means Air Conditioning and Mechanical Ventilation. The ACMV systems require insulation materials to prevent the transmission of heat, sound and electricity. The kind of material that is used for the ACMV systems is of superior thermal K value, its very light and has a high level of rigidity, it’s very easy to handle and install in the systems, it’s very adaptable to any sort of installation. With these kinds of factors the installation becomes very fast and economical for the long term benefit of the product.




Pir-ALU Pre insulated ducting system is the first product in Singapore which is certified by the Green Building Council as the best pre insulated duct product. Piralu is a foam panel coated on both its sides aluminium that is lacquered embossed. The piralu panels are specially designed as a material for ACMV insulation. The big question is how does Piralu keeps the material with same temperature throughout. The answer to this will be that the vapour barrier that is created by the alluminium finish and the foam's insulating properties are such that it helps PIRALU to maintain the same levels of humidity, purity and temperature throughout the ducting, providing excellent air quality. The Piralu is a product which reflects the efficiency, good performance and the aspect of being environmental friendly.

Also there is something called Polyisocyanurate, which is also known as PIR, polyiso, or ISO, is a thermoset plastic typically produced as a foam and used as rigid thermal insulation. Polyisocyanurate Rigd Board on the other hand means that Polyiso is a closed-cell, rigid foam board insulation consisting of a foam core sandwiched between two facers. The main use of this Rigd Board is that it is widely used commercial markets and residential areas for both side walls and roof top applications. Other typical uses for PIR foams include industrial and commercial pipe insulation, and carving/machining media (competing with expanded polystyrene and rigid polyurethane foams).there are certain health hazards involved too as the PIR insulation can be a mechanical irritant to skin, eyes, and upper respiratory system during fabrication (such as dust). No statistically significant increased risks of respiratory diseases have been found in studies.
