Before using Recticel:
Make sure you have consulted a building professional and follow the insulation instructions provided.
Research and make sure you choose the correct type of insulation for your product.
Always handle carefully to avoid damage.
Always ensure boards are fitted properly and butted together to achieve the best quality of insulation.
Always store insulation in a dry place on a flat surface in weatherproof conditions, so the boards do not get damaged. If you do get an insulation board slightly wet, wipe dry and only install once it is completely dry.
Measure and cut accurately using a fine-toothed saw or sharp knife.
Always check you are using the correct adhesive and that it is compatible with the insulation product you are using.
Cover boards before leaving the property.
Is Recticel as good as Celotex?
It really comes down to a preference of brand. Celotex make PIR insulation boards, as do Recticel. When comparing Recticel's and Celotex's general purpose PIR boards, the thermal properties are identical. Both of these brands also offer their boards in the same thicknesses and sizes. The question is not if one brand is superior to the other as the products are near on identical. It really comes down to personal choice and loyalty to the brand. Some builders have used Celotex for years and therefore are apprehensive to change brands. Other builders may prefer using Recticel. Both brands are very popular and we sell a lot of each on our website.
