YBS are committed to manufacturing insulation products to the very
highest quality, which incorporate the utmost levels of innovative
design criteria.
The very nature of our core product base today demonstrates that
environmental awareness will remain at the top of our agenda.
We value our customers as the foundation of our business. Our
relationships with customers are based on principles of respect
and mutual benefit. We aim to develop profitable and lasting
relationships. Within this remit, we will continue to seek out
and wherever possible deliver products and systems that offer
measurable energy savings to our customers and the wider
community at large.
Our Values
By offering our staff and customers alike an open, honest, and
mutually beneficial working environment, success will continue to be
an integral part of the YBS story.
Company History
YBS Insulation was founded in 1994 by the current owner Mr Chris
Woodhall. The strategy was to produce high quality, innovative and
affordable insulation products for the building industry.
YBS Insulation has grown steadily over the years from a one man
operation producing one product in 1994 to the large manufacturing
and distribution company it is today with an impressive portfolio
of products developed to suit all of our customers needs which
include: SuperQuilt, BreatherQuilt, ThermaQuilt, Therma-Wrap, Cavi-
Mate, Easi-Close, Foiltec, Therma-Close, Airtec and Breatherfoil all
manufactured in our purpose built factory in Sheffield, England.
YBS Insulation is now the UK market leader in reflective insulation
technology with additional sales offices spread throughout Europe
and a vast distribution network.

Multi-layer Insulation Blanket
Description
SuperQuilt is a very flexible, easy to fit, multilayer insulation that
offers tremendous thermal benefits. Thermal testing to EN16012
confirms high core thermal resistance of 1.52m²K/W.
Due to the special composition of multi-layers of insulation
SuperQuilt effectively deals with all forms of energy transfer (i.e.
conduction, convection and radiation). SuperQuilt works most
effectively by reflecting infra-red radiation. This means that not
only is SuperQuilt effective in winter by reflecting heat back into
the building and cold out, but also in summer SuperQuilt is a very
effective solar over heating barrier reducing the need for artificial
cooling systems, preventing uncomfortable heat build up in the
roof.
The introduction of a unique method of stitching reduces cold
bridging commonly seen with other multi-foil insulation material.

Description
Non-Itch Insulation is made from user-friendly non-irritating, non-
itch material that is free from floating fibres or dust and so avoids
skin irritation and respiratory problems normally associated with
other forms of insulation. Non-Itch will not deteriorate over time
and will not be affected by mould, mildew or rot. Non-Itch is also
resistant to vermin and insect attack.
Non-Itch is packed very tightly to enable maximum distribution
per bag. The time taken for Non-Itch to return to full thickness will
vary according to ambient temperature and storage time. Giving
Non-Itch a good shake when removed from the packaging will
help to accelerate this process.

Insulating Fire Retardant Breather Membrane
• Fully Certified & NHBC Accepted
• Out-performs Traditional Breather Membrane
• Independently Tested for Breathability
• Fully Waterproof
• Can Improve U-value to Exceed 0.19 W/m2K
• Fully Certified for Walls applications
• For Timber Frame / Modular Housing Application
Description
Specially developed for use in timber-frame and modular building
construction, Breather-Foil FR can greatly increase the U-value of
a timber-frame wall.
Whether pre-fabricated or assembled on site, Breather-Foil FR
can afford the designer and contractor maximum flexibility when
detailing timber-frame walls, without the expense of thicker timber
frames or higher priced materials.
The Breather-Foil FR timber-framed wall system creates a
wind-tight, draught-free, weather-sealed, yet vapour-permeable
enclosure, when used in conjunction with external cladding, such
as tile-hanging, masonry or weather-boarding.

High Performance Insulation for Underfloor Heating Systems
• Fully certificated
• High reflective performance
• High thermal resistance
• Meets building regulations
• Lightweight, thin & flexible
• Fast and simple installation
• CFC/HCFC free
Description
Smaller rooms can be a result of demands for energy saving
insulation.. These rooms are often made to feel even smaller with
a radiator taking up a large part of precious wall space, reducing
options of where to put furniture; bedding, chairs, settees etc.
Underfloor heating provides a very effective solution, freeing
up walls and giving the required conditions for human thermal
comfort with the principal heating effect being evenly distributed
at ground level and not above head level.

Description
Easi-Close can be installed in a variety of ways:
• Tack to window frame if built in.
• Built-in as work progresses friction fitting.
• Easi-Close can be installed after the reveal has been
constructed by fixing to the inner leaf using grab adhesive.
Vertical Jointing
If required, sections of Easi-Close can be jointed to minimise
waste. All joints must be tightly butted -
450 downwards towards the outer leaf. This will stop potential
water penetration.
Corner Jointing
When jointing horizontal to vertical, trim both PVC flanges and
allow the vertical to extend below the horizontal - this stops water
ingress.

of which has a unique, flexible, water seal. Once the window is in
place the flexible seal sits against the window frame and acts as
a secondary water seal. These two rigid extensions allow Type-R
and Type-R Fire-Stop to be made to any cavity width. Type-R and
Type-R Fire-Stop are now available for both standard and check
reveals to suit Robust Details.
