Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) floor insulation. Suitable for suspended concrete ground floors in single-family dwellings, flats and communal areas in blocks of flats.

Only available in England, Scotland and Wales.

Springvale Beamshield Top Sheet Systems, comprising EPS Beamshield Infill units or Beamshield Plus units, Board units and EPS Top Sheets, are for use as thermal insulation in suspended pre-stressed concrete T-beam ground floors (over a subfloor void) with masonry closure and coursing blocks, and an approved structural concrete topping in single-family dwellings, flats and communal areas in blocks of flats within the load criteria and other requirements specified in the Agrément certificate.

The Beamshield Top Sheet system can be supplied in two versions:

Beamshield Top Sheet Infill - Where Beamshield Infill units are used between the concrete T-Beams and a Beamshield Top Sheet above. This version allows the required U values to be achieved by using White EPS or Platinum (Grey) EPS with different depth Beamshield Top Sheets.

Beamshield Top Sheet Plus - This version combines the original Beamshield Plus units, which insulate between and below the concrete T-beams with an extended EPS toe section, with the Beamshield Top Sheet. This version is typically used when lower U values are required and enables the U values to be achieved with a thinner Beamshield Top Sheet.

Springvale Beamshield Top Sheet System has a third party BBA accreditation certificate 07/4411 Product Sheet 2 and is manufactured to the requirements of BS EN 15037-4 and BS EN 13163, under an ISO 9001 certified Quality Management system.

Features and benefits:

• A durable, inert, non-toxic, rot-proof and 100% recyclable product.
• Using Beamshield EPS units as an alternative to concrete blocks in a suspended floor will reduce ground floor heat loss, and allows a thinner layer of EPS insulation to be used above the concrete beams to meet the required U value compared to when the EPS Floorshield product is used above a traditional beam and block floor.
• Platinum Beamshield Infill Units 150mm thick and Platinum Top Sheet 200mm thick can achieve a U value of 0.09 W/m²K depending on the floor layout.
• Beamshield Top Sheet Systems can contribute to improvements in linear thermal bridging values (Psi values) and improvement of the default values used in SAP assessments.
• The range of units are available in white or Platinum EPS to give higher insulation value where needed and include starter/ end, full and half width units in varying thickness and toe lengths (Beamshield Plus unit) to accommodate various beam types and beam layout configurations.
• The Top Sheet to be used with the Beamshield Infill units or Beamshield Plus units is also available in various thicknesses.
