20 mm PIR Insulation – Slim, Versatile & High Performance
At CNZ Insulation, we are proud to offer 20 mm PIR insulation boards – the slimmest option in our New Zealand-made PIR range.
Even at just 20 mm thick, PIR delivers a strong thermal performance, low water absorption, and excellent fire properties, making it a smart choice for situations where space is limited but insulation performance is still required.
Common Applications in New Zealand
- Thermal break behind cladding systems
- Continuous insulation layer in wall or roof assemblies where thickness is restricted
- Slab-edge insulation to reduce heat loss at foundations
- Ceilings or internal linings where every millimetre matters
- Renovation projects where adding bulk insulation isn’t practical
Key Benefits
- Made in New Zealand and tested to NZ standards
- Lightweight and easy to handle on-site
- Compatible with adhesives and mechanical fixings
- Available in custom lengths to suit project requirements
- Excellent thermal efficiency even at minimal thickness
Whether you are designing a rainscreen façade, insulating a tight roof cavity, or simply need a slimline solution for detailing, CNZ’s 20 mm PIR provides reliable performance without compromising on space.
Climate Zones
Previously New Zealand was divided into 3 climate zones - Zones 1 and 2 for most of the North Island and zone 3 for the South Island. Now, there are 6 climate zones across New Zealand, with the insulation requirements tied to these zones
Who is effected ?
The new H1 regulations only affects new construction and existing properties undergoing changes to the external thermal envelope, which will require building consent.
Two Sets Of Requirements
Minimum Insulation requirements differ across three types of buildings; Housing, Small Buildings-under 300m2 and Large Buildings- over 300m2
