    Thermal & Acoustic Insulation Boards.

    Thermal and acoustic insulation solutions for modern construction across the UAE and GCC. Mineral wool, PIR, XPS and EPS boards for roofs, walls, floors, HVAC systems and acoustic treatment.

    Overview

    Thermal and acoustic insulation for modern GCC construction.

    Insulation is the single largest lever for energy efficiency in GCC buildings, where cooling loads dominate operational cost. TIC Dubai supplies the full insulation board family, rigid mineral wool, glass wool, PIR, XPS and EPS, in the densities, facings and fire ratings required across roofs, walls, floors, HVAC systems and acoustic treatments.

    Thermal Insulation

    Control solar gain across roofs, walls and floors.

    Roof Insulation

    Rigid mineral wool and XPS boards for flat and pitched roof assemblies, controlling solar gain through the GCC summer.

    Wall Insulation

    Internal and external wall boards for cavity, drylining and rainscreen facade systems.

    Floor Insulation

    Compression-resistant rigid boards for under-screed, podium-deck and basement slab insulation.

    HVAC & Duct Insulation

    Faced and unfaced boards for plant rooms, duct insulation and chiller plant enclosures.

    Acoustic Insulation

    Control sound between rooms, floors and plant areas.

    Partition Acoustic Infill

    Mineral wool slabs inside drywall partitions to control airborne sound transmission between rooms.

    Ceiling Acoustic Treatment

    Acoustic boards above suspended ceilings to control reverberation and inter-room flanking transmission.

    Floor Impact Isolation

    Resilient acoustic underlays beneath floating floors to control footfall and impact noise.

    Mechanical Plant Rooms

    Heavy-density acoustic boards lining plant rooms, generator enclosures and mechanical risers.

    Properties

    Engineering-grade performance.

    Thermal Conductivity

    Typical λ values 0.022–0.040 W/m·K depending on insulation type and density.

    Fire Performance

    Mineral wool and PIR boards available in A1 / A2 / Euroclass B configurations for façades and walls.

    Acoustic Performance

    NRC 0.85+ on high-density mineral wool slabs; STC contributions for partition systems.

    Moisture & Vapour

    Closed-cell XPS and PIR are dimensionally stable in moist conditions; mineral wool drains and breathes.

    Density Range

    From 30 kg/m³ light-weight infill to 200 kg/m³+ heavy-density acoustic boards.

    Sustainability

    Recycled content available across most ranges; PIR and mineral wool support Estidama and LEED submissions.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Insulation boards: frequently asked.

    What types of insulation boards do you supply?

    We supply rigid mineral wool (stone wool / rock wool), glass wool, PIR (polyisocyanurate), XPS (extruded polystyrene) and EPS (expanded polystyrene) boards in densities, facings and fire ratings tailored to the application.

    Which insulation is best for the GCC climate?

    For roofs and external walls, high-density mineral wool and PIR are the regional default, they combine fire performance with strong thermal control through extreme summer heat. XPS is preferred for below-grade and inverted-roof applications where moisture exposure is high.

    Are your insulation boards Estidama / LEED compliant?

    Yes. Most ranges carry recycled content, environmental product declarations (EPDs) and fire / VOC certifications suitable for Estidama Pearl, LEED, GSAS and similar regional sustainability assessments.

    What thicknesses are available?

    Insulation boards are supplied in 25, 50, 75, 100, 125 and 150 mm thicknesses, with custom thicknesses on request depending on type and density.

    Can you supply both thermal and acoustic insulation?

    Yes. Most mineral wool products serve dual thermal-acoustic roles. For specialised acoustic-only applications (impact underlay, plant-room treatment), we supply dedicated acoustic boards and resilient layers.

    What fire ratings are available?

    Mineral wool boards are typically A1 non-combustible (Euroclass A1, BS 476 Class 0). PIR boards are typically B-s1,d0 with foil facings. Bespoke facade-rated assemblies (post-Grenfell A2-s1,d0 systems) are available on request.

    Do you supply insulation for cold storage and cleanrooms?

    Yes. PIR and EPS sandwich-panel cores, alongside dedicated cold-room insulation boards, are supplied for cold storage, food processing, pharma and cleanroom applications across the UAE and KSA.

    Where do you ship insulation boards?

    Across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Jordan and Iraq, routed through Jebel Ali, Khalifa, Hamad, Dammam, Sohar and Salalah ports.
