Styrocladeco is a factory bonded composite comprising 6mm Cembrit MP and XPS Insulation. Cembrit Multi Purpose is a high-density fibre-cement board designed to withstand extreme climatic and working conditions. It offers excellent impact resistance, with a smooth grey surface and requires no finishing. The Cembrit MP facing board has a reaction to fire rating of Euroclass A1 to EN 13501-1:2007. The Ravatherm XPS insulation has a reaction to fire rating of Euroclass E to EN 13501-1:2007.
Ravatherm XPS X LB is a grey extruded polystyrene and combines low thermal conductivity and high resistance to moisture to ensure permanent long-term insulation. Styrocladeco uses an XPS grade which is extruded using carbon dioxide as the blowing agent. The ODP and GWP of the carbon dioxide blowing agent are Zero and One respectively.
We pride ourselves on our high level of quality & service and all our products are manufactured to British Standard BS EN ISO 9001:2015. We keep extensive stocks at our Sheffield warehouse close to Junction 31 off the M1, ready for collection or distribution across the UK.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION (6th Nov 2019):
The insulation foam used to make Styroclad Eco - Dow Styrofoam, has changed brand name to Ravatherm XPS. This product is now manufactured by Ravago Building Solutions – Europe’s largest manufacturer of XPS insulation. The level of quality has remained the same. If you have any questions regarding this name change, please contact our technical sales team.
- Blue Styrofoam LBA has changed to Grey Ravatherm XPS X LB

Applications
Styroclad can be designed and manufactured to any thickness to achieve a required thermal resistance.
Roof Upstand & Parapet
Styroclad is suitable for use as a fully external panel where insulation is required on an upstand/parapet. Styrocladeco ensures there are no cold bridging problems where the roof insulation meets the upstand.
Installation
Styrocladeco can be cut on site to the required size using a TCT saw(dust levels may require the use of face masks). The boards should be mechanically fixed directly to the upstand wall along the top edge. This can be achieved through the board face at maximum 600mm centres, with fixings positioned a minimum 50mm / maximum 150mm from the edge of the board. Mechanical fixings should penetrate the substrate a minimum of 25mm. If the bottom edge of the board is not to be physically retained by the roof deck insulation, an additional row of mechanical fixings will be required. When an uneven surface exists, adhesives may also be used at the contractor’s discretion. These should not contain solvents that may attack the Ravatherm insulation foam. Finally a decorative flashing must be fitted along the top edge to minimise moisture penetration behind the boards.
Cutting
Styrocladeco can be cut using normal site cutting tools including circular saws and fine toothed saws.
Handling & Storage
Styrocladeco is packed on pallets with limited weather protection. Pallets should always be stored on flat ground and if materials are likely to remain exposed for long periods, then additional protection of the pallet will be required. Boards that have been allowed to get wet should not be used. When boards are removed from the pallet, they should be stored flat and in a dry area.
