The Beechwood West estate forms the first step in Swan Housing Association’s 10-year development plan for Basildon. The new neighbourhood of 251 family houses, is designed to bring affordable, custom-built homes to the popular commuter centre.
Our Kooltherm 100 range of rigid insulation boards achieve a thermal conductivity of 0.019 W/mK across all board thicknesses. This outstanding thermal performance allowed the target U-values to be met with a slim thickness of insulation, ensuring the aesthetic integrity of Pollard Thomas Edwards’ contemporary designs could be maintained.
Installers were able to simply cut the lightweight boards to size with a fine-toothed saw and install them within the modular buildings ready to be transported to site.
