    I had wall insulation boards installed behind new plaster boards on a renovation job 2 years ago. I'm getting a BER cert and in the absense of a receipt or the builder, I'm trying to find out what the brand and spec are of these boards. Here's the description: Black coloured panel on the outside with grey polystyrene on the inside. Can anyone tell me what brand this might be OR direct me to where I can get this information (via PM if needs be).

    Thanks in advance

    Sorry for the delay. Here are 2 pics below of a vent I screwed open to expose the plasterboard with insulation behind it. Can you tell the brand from this?

    its this stuff

    take a photo of the board with a measuring tape across so that an assessor can see the actual measurements of both the plasterboard and the insulation layer.

    I'm guessing 37.5mm.

    25mm insulation plus 12.5mm plasterboard.

    Looks like they put on the 25mm EPS and then put on the 12.5mm plasterboard.
