• Sound Insulation: Reduces noise transmission between internal walls and floors.
• Sustainable Material: Manufactured with up to 80% recycled content, supporting eco-conscious construction.

Product Range

Thermalite offers a diverse selection of block types to suit varying structural and thermal needs across a wide range of building projects:

• Thermalite Turbo: Designed for superior thermal insulation in low-energy and Passivhaus-style buildings. Ideal for minimizing heat loss in cavity wall construction and internal partitions.
• Thermalite Shield: Combines high thermal performance with enhanced compressive strength, making it ideal for external walls, separating walls, and any applications where thermal bridging must be minimized.
• Thermalite Hi-Strength: With its increased load-bearing capacity, this block is perfect for structural applications such as foundations, ground floors, and high-load internal partitions where strength is a priority.
• Foundation Blocks: Suitable for below-ground use, these dense yet lightweight blocks simplify construction below the damp-proof course (DPC), offering durability without excessive weight.
• Thin Layer Mortar Blocks: Precision-engineered for use with thin joint mortar systems, enabling faster construction speeds, reduced thermal bridging, and a cleaner finish.

FAQ

1. Can Thermalite blocks be used for all wall types?

Yes, Thermalite blocks are highly versatile and can be used for a wide range of applications including external walls, internal partitions, cavity walls, loadbearing structures, and below-DPC foundations. Their lightweight design and strength make them suitable for both traditional and modern construction methods.

2. Are Thermalite blocks easy to cut?

Absolutely. One of the key benefits of Thermalite blocks is their ease of workability. They can be cut on-site using a standard hand saw or power tools, allowing for flexible design and quick adjustments to fit around pipes, electrical installations, and structural layouts.

3. Do Thermalite blocks meet fire safety standards?

Yes, Thermalite blocks offer excellent fire resistance and have been rigorously tested to meet UK fire safety regulations. Many products in the range achieve fire resistance ratings of up to four hours, making them suitable for use in both residential and commercial fire-rated wall constructions.

4. Are these blocks eco-friendly?

Yes, Thermalite blocks support sustainable building practices. They are manufactured using recycled raw materials and have a low embodied energy footprint. Additionally, their thermal properties help reduce energy consumption in buildings over their lifetime, contributing to lower carbon emissions.
