Ultrabead is a specially engineered thermal lightweight screed that improves the thermal performance of internal floors.
A One-Size-Fits-All Product
Ultrabead is a poured insulating layer that offers a modern alternative to traditional insulating boards while providing our customers with improved thermal efficiency, productivity and economy. RTU has developed this highly technical product with insulating and lightweight properties to support a wide range of construction applications for floors and flat roofs.
Ultrabead delivers a form of liquid engineering designed to encapsulate all service conduits, eliminating the thermal bridge and cold joints to create a uniformly insulated layer ready for the floor screed application.
In addition to being an improved option over PIR/EPS insulation boards, Ultrabead’s low density is a lightweight void filler that improves any commercial building or home’s acoustic performance. Also, the application of Ultrabead is incredibly efficient. Only a single layer is required, which can be mixed, pumped and poured on-site as needed, making it quicker to install, less labour-intensive and cost-effective.
Quality
Ultrabead is produced in-house at the RTU headquarters in accredited ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 manufacturing facilities. This high-performing product is NHBC-approved and KIWA-accredited. Stringent quality control procedures are in place at all stages of the manufacture and installation processes to ensure a consistently high-quality product output. Ultrabead is installed by expert installers within our approved network.
