5 MISSION STATEMENT The Company YBS are committed to manufacturing insulation products to the very highest quality, which incorporate the utmost levels of innovative design criteria. 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. 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.

7 SuperQuilt Multi-layer Insulation Blanket Meets requirements of L1A, L1B 2010 NHBC Acceptance Pitched roof insulation Full Agrément certification High thermal resistance of 2.50m²K/W Class E Fire Resistance Ideal for New build & Refurbishment Effective solar over-heating barrier Lightweight, flexible & 40mm thin Fast and simple installation Vapour control layer Thermally tested in accordance with EN16012 Equivalent to 110mm of mineral wool Thermal Resistance 2.50m 2 K/W 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. 6

8 BreatherQuilt 2 in 1 Breatherable Multi-layer Insulation Blanket Pitched roof insulation Ideal for new build & refurbishment Lightweight, flexible & thin Fast and simple installation Minimal space required Effective over heating barrier Equivalent to 65mm of mineral wool Agrément Certified Thermal Resistance 1.62m 2 K/W BreatherQuilt is a 2-in-1 breathable multi-layer insulation, offering a unique twist to roofing membranes with high thermal performance. This cost effective solution delivers our market leading reflective insulation alongside a breathable roofing membrane.

10 Non-Itch General Purpose Insulation Roll Made from 85% recycled plastic bottles Quick, clean and easy to install No protective clothing required Free from floating fibres Direct equivalent to glass fibre insulation Totally recyclable Total itch free insulation Non-Itch Insulation is made from user-friendly non-irritating, nonitch 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. CLEANER, GREENER, SAFER INSULATION 9

11 Breather-Foil FR 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 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. 10
