UNDERFLOOR SECTIONS

Mammoth underfloor insulation sections are easy to handle and install because they are self-supporting.



Description

Mammoth underfloor insulation are self-supporting medium density pads that squeeze into place between joists without staples or other fixings.

Cut to a variety of widths, Mammoth® polyester underfloor insulation sections are moisture resistant, high performance options that are safer to install than stapled solutions. Our insulation sections have a range of R-values of up to R3.8 (when double layered).

Mammoth products contain recycled polyester fibres. Mammoth underfloor section insulation uses up to 7,800 recycled plastic bottles per 100sqm*.

Q&A/FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS



This is a measure of thermal efficiency - is measures the thermal resistance of the material. The higher the R-Value the better.

Minimum R-Values are specified for underfloor in the building code which for all regions of New Zealand is R1.3.

Yes - and Mammoth Underfloor sections are easier to install than most other forms of underfloor insulation since they are:

  • non-irritant
  • do not need staples or other fixings
  • simply squeeze into position between joists
