The ongoing issue of hard - to - treat walls in the UK can be overcome utilising Spacetherm - an ultra - thin insulation for thermal upgrades, saving valuable space without altering the exterior fabric of the building. Spacetherm can be supplied on its own and cut to size or laminated to a number of facings to suit your individual requirements. Its remarkable performance is achieved through the use of flexible aerogel blankets. The insulation used in Spacetherm is material derived from silica gel.
- 50 year continued thermal performance
- Hydrophobic nature resists water absorption
- LABC & LABSS Certified

Spacetherm Wall Liner
Spacetherm WL (Wall Liner) is a high performance laminate specifically designed to be fixed to internal surfaces of existing solid walls without the need for mechanical fixings. Spacetherm WL consists of 10mm Spacetherm aerogel insulation blanket bonded to 3mm Magnesium Oxide Board (MgO), for use in applications where improved thermal performance is required with limited space. Spacetherm WL can achieve similar performance to traditional plasterboard laminates, but at a fraction of the thickness, allowing specifiers greater flexibility and higher performance for refurbishment projects.
- Thin insulation system for hard to treat walls.
- Class leading performance.
- Minimum loss of room space.
- LABC & LABSS Certified

|---|---|---|---|
| 225mm brick | 2.06 | 0.81 | 61% |
| 300mm brick | 1.72 | 0.75 | 56% |
| 600mm stone | 2.18 | 0.83 | 62% |
| Brick Cavity - unfilled | 1.45 | 0.7 | 52% |
| Brick Cavity - filled | 0.58 | 0.40 | 31% |
Window Reveal Board
Spacetherm WRB (window reveal board) is a high-performance laminate specifically designed to be fixed or glued to the existing solid wall at the window reveals. Spacetherm WRB consists of Spacetherm Aerogel insulation blanket bonded to plasterboard or magnesium board, with or without plywood reinforcement, depending on fixings. It is ideal for use in applications where low U-values are required but space is limited.
Installation
Spacetherm® WRB should be glued to the existing wall structure. Drilling is not recommended although it may be required for wiring and services. If drilling is required then care should be taken to compress the panel as much as possible to reduce the risk of insulation fibres wrapping around the drill bit.
Internal & External Reveal Angles
Spacetherm® WRB panels should be cut in such a way as to allow for the jointing of the plasterboard or fermacell and an unbroken run of insulation to the existing wall in both internal and external angles. Refer to Installation Guide for details.
Cold Bridge Strip
Spacetherm® CBS (Cold Bridge Strip) uses Spacetherm® aerogel insulation encapsulated in Polyethelene for use in the prevention of cold bridging through a component or element of a structure. Spacetherm® CBS is an ideal specification when trying to reduce cold bridging in timber or steel frame structures. Upon request the Spacetherm® CBS can be cut to a variety of widths to suit different applications.
Cutting
Spacetherm® CBS can be cut using scissors or knife. Care should be taken that cutting blades are kept sharp, if using a knife, the angle between the blade and the Spacetherm® CBS should be kept as low as possible. It is advisable to reseal the ends with tape after cutting is complete.
Fixings
Spacetherm® CBS is supplied with double sided adhesive tape for ease of installation. Spacetherm® CBS can be applied to either timber or metal framing systems.
Spacetherm Multi
Spacetherm Multi is a high-performance laminate specifically designed to be laid directly onto existing floors & walls. Spacetherm Multi consists of Spacetherm Aerogel insulation blanket bonded to a 6mm Magnesium Oxide Board. Spacetherm Aerogel blanket is available in various thickness from 5mm to 40mm (in multiples of 5). For other thicknesses, or for U-value calcluations for your project, please contact Proctor Technical services.
The solution is ideal for use in applications where low U-values are required and room space is at a premium (such as loft conversions). Spacetherm Multi can achieve similar performance to other insulation systems, but at a fraction of the thickness. This allows specifiers greater flexibility and higher performance for refurbishment projects.

Spacetherm Wallboard
Spacetherm Wallboard is a high performance laminate which is specifically designed to be fixed to timber straps. It consists of Spacetherm Aerogel insulation blanket bonded to plasterboard, and is ideal for use in applications where low U-values are required but space is at a premium. Spacetherm Wallboard is supplied with foil faced plasterboard as standard to reduce condensation. Plain plasterboard is available on request. Spacetherm Wallboard lining boards can achieve similar performance to traditional plasterboard laminates, but at a fraction of the thickness, allowing specifiers greater flexibility and higher performance for refurbishment projects. Due to Spacetherm’s unique hydrophobic qualities it is also possible to directly fix Spacetherm Laminates to certain existing wall substrates (see installation guide for details). For other thicknesses, or for U-value calculations for your project, please contact Proctor Technical services.
- Can be installed directly to solid walls or onto straps
- Ideal for hard to treat solid walls
- Ideal solution where maximising internal space is critical
- LABC & LABSS Certified
Spacetherm Direct Fix
Spacetherm Directfix is a high performance laminate which is specifically designed to be fixed directly to the wall. It consists of Spacetherm Aerogel insulation blanket bonded to plasterboard, with an additonal pre-bonded plywood reinforcement to the plasterboard. This reinforced laminate will reduce the risk of shot-fired nails failing to create a robust fix and will also reduce the risk of drill bit snagging, should you be using a traditional mechanical fixing method.
Ideal for use in applications where low U-values are required but space is at a premium. Spacetherm Directfix is supplied with foil faced plasterboard as standard to reduce condensation. Plain plasterboard is available on request. Spacetherm Directfix lining boards can achieve similar performance to traditional plasterboard laminates, but at a fraction of the thickness, allowing specifiers greater flexibility and higher performance for refurbishment projects. Due to Spacetherm’s unique hydrophobic qualities it is also possible to directly fix Spacetherm Laminates to certain existing wall substrates (see installation guide for details).

Spacetherm Blanket
The Spacetherm Blanket consists of unfaced sheets of high performance aerogel composite insulation. The possible applications of the Spacetherm Blanket are virtually limitless as it has been used in doors, shutters, window reveals, boats, swimming pool covers and numerous other applications where thermal performance, space and thickness are critical.
