Improved duct capability
Making ‘Lite’ work of retrofit
Polypipe Building Products has launched a unique addition to its simple to install Overlay™ low profile system. New Overlay Lite is a high compressive strength lightweight, insulated panel ideal for retro-fit
installation where
lightweight floorcoverings, such as laminates, carpet and engineered woods, are to be used. This complements the original system which is ideal for use with heavyweight floorcoverings such as ceramics and solid wood floor coverings. Additional features of the new range include ease of cutting and jointing, making the Overlay Lite system more suitable for use in larger areas and multiple room applications.
