GIAS FLOOR

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

GIAS FLOOR represents a modular and rigid thermal insulation system, precisely engineered to provide the optimal, stable, and efficient foundation for modern underfloor heating (UFT) systems.

It is not a simple panel, but a technological solution that combines the superior properties of extruded polystyrene (moisture and compression resistance) with intelligent installation ergonomics. The board features a bossed fixing system on its surface. This design allows installers to mount and secure heating pipes with increased speed and millimeter precision, eliminating the need for additional clips and ensuring uniform spacing between circuits.

From a thermal point of view, GIAS FLOOR plays a vital role. Due to its closed-cell structure and high density, it acts as an extremely effective thermal barrier, preventing downward heat loss (towards the foundation or concrete slab). By directing thermal energy exclusively toward the screed and the living space, it maximizes the energy efficiency of the UFT system and ensures rapid and uniform heat distribution, contributing directly to thermal comfort and substantial long-term savings.

It is the professional solution that guarantees mechanical stability under the weight of the screed, the longevity of the system, and the energy efficiency of any underfloor heating project.

TYPICAL AREAS OF APPLICATION

• UFT Systems (Underfloor Heating): Base insulation layer for heating installations.

• Residential and Commercial Buildings: Ensures efficient thermal separation of the heating system from the concrete slab (raft foundation).

• Renovations: Ideal solution for rapid pipe installation and reducing the total height of the screed system.

KEY BENEFITS

• Fast and Precise Mounting: The fastening/rib system simplifies and accelerates the installation of heating pipes.

• Energy Efficiency: Minimizes downward heat transfer (towards the foundation), directing 95% of the energy into the living space.

• Additive Sound Insulation: Contributes to the reduction of impact noise, improving acoustic comfort.

• Compressive Strength: Withstands the weight of the screed, finish, and traffic (depending on the density of the XPS used as a base).

• Moisture Protection: Often includes an integrated protective film that acts as a barrier against subfloor moisture.
