The launch of our new insulated concrete flooring solution eFloor Plus marks another step towards answering the problems faced by national home builders. As the housing market becomes more impacted by environmental concerns, there is a need to rely on affordable insulation solution to meet U-values.
When we started, what separated Floorspan from other beam and block suppliers is our approach to our customers. We carved out a niche by providing an end-to-end, personalised service to self-builders and local firms.
Needless to say, as we have grown, we have adapted to a wider market..
It is still always an honour to work within our local area and deliver outstanding flooring solutions to our community. So it was really exciting for us when we were able to introduce eFloor Plus to local, long-term customer L Petriello Groundworks.
It is no secret in the industry that EPS provides great thermal efficiency for homes. EPS, or materials like it, have become increasingly relied upon over the last few years.
Our solution differs from others on the market. It is flexible, easy to install, and cost-effective.
L Petriello Groundworks Contractors Ltd has worked with us for several years. After we explained how eFloor Plus works, they let us prove ourselves by trialling the product.
We sent our installation team out to their site in March, Cambridgeshire, to show them how the system works and how it differs from traditional ‘underslung’ polystyrene systems.
This animated video shows how eFloor Plus is installed. In reality, you would need to allow for air bricks and ventilation.
With its high strength, structural stability, and thermal conductivity, this type of insulation satisfies the Building Regulation Act 2010 and the U-value requirements, allowing our clients to trust the product safety entirely.
Floorspan has a version of this system, eFloor Classic (formerly Thermafloor), so we understand its benefits. eFloor Plus does not need to replace ‘underbeam’ flooring for those that are more comfortable with it. However, it is hard to ignore the additional benefits that come with eFloor Plus.
Like many others, Petriello was used to the ‘Classic’ system and was a little wary about switching to a new system.
