IKO enertherm ALU is a 100% CFC, HCFC or HFC-free insulation board with a rigid polyisocyanurate foam core, clad on both sides with a multi-layer gas-tight aluminium construction. This high-quality reflecting ALU cladding consists of no fewer than seven layers, combined into a single construction. It is tested under extreme conditions regarding water absorption, mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and emissivity.

ALU range of applications
IKO enertherm is used for the thermal insulation of flat roofs.
Benefits:
- Lightweight boards and therefore easier to handle.
- Less volume for the same insulation value.
- Fit for walking on during the work and after.
- Can be installed quickly and easily.
- High dimensional stability and compressive strength.
IKO enertherm is used for the thermal insulation of pitched roofs on the rafters or on the trusses.
Benefits:
- Insulation shield on the trusses without breaks.
- The IKO enertherm ALU NF PRO board comes with integrated vapour-permeable undertile felt.
- Integrated vapour-permeable undertile felt provided with a double adhesive strip.
- Interior finish and volume are retained.
- Windproof in one operation.
- Very low loading of the roof structure thanks to the light weight.
- Very easy installation without breaks.
IKO enertherm is used for the thermal insulation of floors.
Benefits:
- Exceptional dimensional and compressive stability.
- With grid as reference for underfloor heating.
- Moisture-insensitive and rot-proof.
- Very light and above all convenient size.
- Very easy to process.
- Cast floor without applying a separating layer.
- High chemical resistance.
IKO enertherm is used for the thermal insulation of cavity walls.
Benefits:
- The dimensional stability of the boards guarantees one unbroken insulation shield.
- The outstanding thermal performance of IKO enertherm means that one thin insulation board in the cavity is enough.
- Quick and easy to cut and install.
- The tongue and groove connection avoids thermal bridging and ingress of water.
- The lightweight board facilitates transport and installation.
- The ALU cladding is corrosion-resistant.
- Fibre-free board, so no irritation.
IKO enertherm is the solution for the insulation of outside walls.
Benefits:
- Interior finish of the home is retained.
- Various decorative finishes possible: timber, zinc, sidings, etc.
- Nearly 40 % thinner than mineral wool, XPS or EPS with the same R value.
- Wind and moisture-proof insulation shield.
- Can be cut and installed quickly and easily.
- The ALU cladding is corrosion-resistant.
IKO enertherm comfort is the perfect loft insulation solution.
Benefits:
- No additional vapour screen needed thanks to closed cell structure of the board and seams taped with IKO ALU tape.
- Various finishes possible: plasterboard, laths, etc.
- Very quick installation thanks to convenient size and light weight.
- Moisture-insensitive and non-deformable.
