Tough insulation jobs are child's play to 62.5mm Celotex PL4050 Insulated Plasterboard. This 2-in-1 insulation and drylining board smashes the job by combining the low-heat transfer properties of PIR with the structural integrity of plasterboard.
Comprising a high-performance PIR insulation board bonded to tapered edge plasterboard, the sheets feature a narrow edge profile meaning joints become invisible under paint, giving a sleek, clean finish.
62.5mm Celotex PL4050 insulation can be installed in a range of building applications, from the internal side of solid masonry walls to under and between rafters and joists.
The 62.5mm refers to the overall thickness (both the insulation board (25mm) and plasterboard (12.5mm) elements bonded together). The 62.5mm Celotex PL4050 is BBA certified as a thermal laminate, and can be used in both existing domestic and non-domestic buildings. As well as providing thermal efficiency, it can also help to limit the risk of surface condensation.
62.5mm Celotex PL4050 Applications
PL4050 is suitable for pitched roof and wall applications in both new build and refurbishment projects and drastically reduces installation times, providing insulation and plasterboard in one operation.
You can either use mechanically fixed installation techniques or the direct bonding dot and dab method, which involves direct bonding to the masonry wall.
PL4050 can easily be used to help upgrade to current building regulation standards in:
- Pitched roofs
- Flat roof and wall applications
- Internal solid wall insulation
- The 'underneath' layer of insulation in between and under rafter and joist applications
- Timber frame lining applications
62.5mm Celotex Insulated Plasterboard Specifications
With an impressively low thermal conductivity value of 0.022 W/mK, rigid polyisocyanurate PIR boards are easily one of the best insulators on the market. As well as providing thermal insulation, the rigid polyisocyanurate insulation and plasterboard elements of PL4050 represent an easy-to-install solution that is in line with current building regulation standards.
The Celotex PL4000 range boasts the following features:
- Zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and low Global Warming Potential (GWP)
- Thermal conductivity: 0.022 W/mK
- Suitable for both direct bonding (‘dot and dab’) and mechanically fixed installation techniques
- Features an inbuilt vapour control layer
- Offers the installer maximum flexibility and installation speed due to the tapered edge plasterboard
- Combines insulation & drylining

62.5mm Celotex PL4050 Storage
The boards are supplied in polythene-wrapped packs. Each pack contains a label bearing the manufacturer’s name, board dimensions and the BBA logo.
The boards must be protected from prolonged exposure to sunlight and moisture and should be stored inside, undercover and protected with opaque polythene sheeting. The boards should be stacked flat and raised above ground level (to avoid contact with ground moisture).
