Sempatap Thermal Insulation - anyone tried it?

[Autolycus]

This stuff:

being pushed through one of those odd government schemes (in this case Magic Wall / Magic Boiler) as an alternative to dry lining etc for solid walls.

It's not cheap - around £12/m^2 by the time you include adhesive, and the BRE figures they quote suggest a saving of only around 90p/m^2/yr, but it's less disruptive to fit than a "proper" solution.

Anyone tried it, or seen it in use, or seen anything similar?

[Cicero]

================================== This stuff is similar and has been around for many years:

's much cheaper and it can be hung using a normal fungicidal paste and therefore doesn't need two coats of special emulsion paint to finish it.

One disadvantage is the it bruises if it gets knocked but that's a minor problem.

Whilst either may mitigate the effects of condensation, the heat loss reduction is generally insignificant compared with celotex/kingspan drylining.
