Plinth Thermal Insulation Profile EPS
The Blaugelb Plinth Thermal Insulation Profile EPS is made from a high-density EPS (expanded polystyrene) and offers the best possible heat and moisture protection on front doors and balcony doors made from wood, wood/aluminium, aluminium and plastic. The Blaugelb Plinth Thermal Insulation Profile EPS is sturdy, durable and is exceptionally quick and easy to fit.
The Blaugelb Plinth Thermal Insulation Profile EPS provides thermal insulation and reduces the scope of conventional plastic profiles to form thermal bridges. It is dimensionally stable, 100 % free of HCFCs, HFCs and HBCDs and tested to be low in pollutants according to EMICODE EC1 Plus. The Blaugelb Plinth Thermal Insulation Profile EPS was specially developed for fitting as a substructure thermal insulation profile under thresholds.
By virtue of the innovative dovetail joint, the Blaugelb Plinth Thermal Insulation Profile EPS can be positively interlocked, to create any desired length. The dovetail joint reduces the amount of waste, possibly even avoiding waste altogether, while the 1,175 mm length of the individual profiles is ideal for transport and storage (Europallet). Thanks to its low weight and compact dimensions, the Blaugelb Plinth Thermal Insulation Profile EPS is unbeatably quick and straightforward to process.
With the tongue and groove joint, the two blaugelb Plinth Thermal Insulation Profiles EPS which are to be joined have a groove on one edge and a tongue on the other edge and can be coupled in height one under the other.
