Edge strip/with apron

Homepage Product Catalogue Edge strip/with apron

Edge insulation strip with apron is an expansion joint component made of durable polyethylene (PE), used in underfloor heating systems to compensate for the thermal expansion of the screed and to provide a tight connection with thermal insulation, reducing thermal bridges and improving system efficiency.

What is the product?

The edge insulation strip with apron is an expansion joint component used along walls in underfloor heating systems to compensate for the thermal expansion of the screed. It is made of polyethylene (PE), which offers high resistance to mechanical damage and moisture. The integrated apron facilitates a tight connection with thermal insulation, reducing the risk of thermal bridges and improving the overall system efficiency.

Application

The edge insulation strip with apron is used as a perimeter expansion joint in underfloor heating systems and traditional cement and anhydrite screeds. It separates the screed from walls and other vertical structural elements, compensating for the thermal expansion of the floor. The integrated apron enables a tight connection with thermal insulation, improving thermal efficiency and reducing the risk of thermal bridging.

Advantages

thermal expansion compensation – allows independent movement of the screed and floor layers, preventing damage caused by torsion
force isolation – reduces the transfer of thermal and mechanical forces to structural elements
durability – made of PE, providing good resistance to permanent deformation and moisture
integrated apron – ensures better system sealing, enhancing moisture resistance and increasing the durability of the insulation layer
