Mcgraths limestone innovation centre, co. mayo, roi
“ We have been working with energystore TLA® for a number of years, and when it came to choosing an insulation product for our new Innovation Centre that would meet the rigorous demands of heavy commercial use, TLA was the product of choice. Our new Innovation Centre is the cornerstone of our research and development team, dedicated to innovative advancements in the construction sector, accommodating both light and heavy commercial use. As such, it demanded an insulation system with exceptional compressive strength. We highly recommend energystore TLA® for any project seeking reliable, high-performance insulation with considerable environmental advantages.”

Cost effective
Reduced wastage
Quick drying times
Minimal lead time
Faster Installation
The McGraths Limestone Innovation Centre is situated at their Head Office in Cong, County Mayo. The investment in this modern facility is an essential resource for the in-house research and development team, allowing the manufacturer to continuously explore, develop, and test new products that will have a significant impact on the future of the construction sector. “The installation of TLA® has not only enhanced the thermal efficiency of our facility but also contributed to our commitment to sustainable building practices.”
Energystore TLA® floor insulation was the preferred solution for insulating both the ground and first floors of the project, with a strong emphasis on building with innovative construction products. Given the building’s dual purpose for light and heavy commercial use, TLA was specifically selected for its superior compressive strength when compared to other floor insulation systems. Using TLA also resulted in zero waste, as there were no off-cuts, minimizing the amount of material being disposed of in landfill

What is energystore TLA?
energystore TLA® is a high-performance insulated flooring solution. It’s free flowing properties mean a faster install and a completely level footprint. With more effective thermal bridging properties, energystore TLA® is a faster and more efficient solution.
energystore TLA® is made with expanded virgin graphite EPS beads mixed with EIA additive to form a thermal lightweight aggregate. Once mixed with cement and water the finished product can help achieve compliance with building regulations throughout the UK and Ireland.
