FIBRANxps INCLINE

FIBRANxps INCLINE is a inclined thermal insulation board made of extruded polystyrene, with surface in incline and straight cut edges.

Application
FIBRANxps INCLINE thermal insulation panels are used to make inclined surfaces on flat roofs and ensure efficient drainage. Lightweight boards:

  • Provides desired inclinations for effective drainage,
  • reduce weight of the roof,
  • reduce total roof thickness
  • contribute to the thermal efficiency flat roof surfaces, such are: obrnjene ravne strehe, ravne strehe, terase, balkoni in loze.

Instalation
All construction requirements should be taken into account during the application of FIBRANxps panels. FIBRANxps panels should be placed on flat and clean surfaces. They can easily be cut using a sharp knife or heated wire. Most FIBRANxps poduct edges are L or D shaped. The panels are usually installed in a single layer. The application of double layer is desirable for I shaped panels, to avoid the consequent formation of thermal bridges at the joins. Thermal insulation in inverted roof application should be installed ina single layer. No naked flames should be used during the installation of FIBRANxps extruded polystyrene panels. Whenever FIBRANxps panels are to be applied over waterproofing film on basement walls, adhesive tape should also be used. In the event of basements with a high water table, the damp proofing product should be applied to the entire wall surface. When using FIBRANxps on larger surfaces, especially on warm flat roofs, te dilation or contraction of the panels due to temperature must be taken into account. The construction of expansion joins with stonewool is recommended in such cases.

Management and storage
FIBRANxps panels are resistant to cold weather, rain and snow, but not to a long-term exposure to ultraviolet radiation from direct exposure to sunlight. Therefore the packaging must only be removed immediately prior to application of the material. In the event that the packaging is torn, the material must be protected from direct sunlight. Although FIBRANxps panels are among the most surable materials on the market, contact with sharp objects can destroy or warp their surface. FIBRANxps panels can be used up to a temperature of 75 oC. However, if stored outdoors and exposed to direct sunlight, or covered with organic solvents such as acetone, petrol or tar. If the panels are to cleaned, a test of the material’s tolerance is recommended. Please consult out technical department, if necessary. They are generally resistant to soap and detergents, but not to bleach. FIBRANxps panels are partially resistant to substances such as vegetable oils and fats, paraffin, phenol, which means that long-term expsure to such substances can affect the appearance or structure of their surface. FIBRANxps panels are particularly resistant to water-soluble  asphalt materials, lime, cement, lime mortar, seawater, as well as thin dilute acids and silicones. A preliminary test is recommended in case of doubt.
