Celotex Green Guide Rating Explained

What Is The Green Guide Rating Of Celotex Products?
PIR insulation is generically ‘A’ rated in the 2008 Green Guide. However, the Ecopoint score from Celotex’ BRE approved environmental profile allows us to claim a superior‘A+’ rating when compared to the BRE Green Guide 2008 for many of our products. Celotex was the first provider of PIR insulation to have achieved this rating.

Which Celotex Products Are ‘A+’ Rated?
The core range of Celotex products including GA4000, TB4000, XR4000 & CW4000 as well as our TA4000 & FF4000 product. The insulation component of our TD4000 product is A+ rated. Currently there is no Green Guide rating for plywood though the generic ratings for many flat roof applications are available from BRE Global or via www.thegreenguide.org.uk

Which Celotex Products Are ‘A’ Rated?
Celotex FR4000, CG4000, EL3000 & the insulation component of our PL4000 thermal laminate.
