Diathonite Screed is a lightweight insulating screed made with cork, clay and diatomaceous earth. At λ 0.060 W/mK it breaks the thermal bridge through a floor, and with Diafon underneath it cuts impact noise by 22 dB. Hand or machine applied from 4 cm, on concrete slabs and foam-glass aggregate, with the finished floor built above. Breathable, so trapped moisture escapes instead of condensing; compressive class C7.
Key Features
- R 0.167 m²K/W per centimetre
- L’nw 58 dB in the tested floor system
- Hand or plastering-machine application
- Fire class A1fl
