Eden Building Supplies - Insulation

W123-80's

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has used these guys for Insulation. They are selling seconds direct from the factory supposedly. Prices look good.

Anyone have any experience good or bad?

Any potential issues to be aware of using seconds insulation?

Thanks in advance

Some of what's on sale there appears to be site-seconds rather than manufacturing seconds and you can see what looks to be staining and discolouration due to sun and rain exposure, plus significant damp.

These boards have come straight to us from the manufacturer.
They are cosmetic seconds. Ripple in the foil, variance in thickness.

Really? I'd be very surprised if a manufacturer would allow their name on such damaged stock.

Site-seconds would be residue left over due to over-spec or over-count. Many of these would be entirely suitable for use on various projects but some may be either scratched or damaged or have water staining in areas. I'd want to be seeing the batch before ordering.

Thanks for your thoughts.

I was a bit concerned by the colour of them alright. My gut was telling me it had to be some sort of water ingress that had them that colour.

It's a tricky one and as you suggested it would be best if I could see the product before buying.

Thanks again for your input.

depends on what your using them for, I got a pallet from them and I'm using them on the floor and they will do the job - some are unusable but 90% are fine - site seconds is a better description

That weathering happens pretty quickly but its only on the edges typically. I dont think it causes much of an issue to performance.
