			<![CDATA[Do these exist? <br /><br />No doubt many insulations can be manufactured as thick as required but is there a way to bond them together on-site in the same way mortar is used between blockwork? I'm thinking particularly of the rigid high performing insulations.]]>

			<![CDATA[Most types of rigid foam can be stuck with epoxy.  I've used it to laminate wood to EPS and Celotex. Perhaps ask West Systems at <a href="http://www.westsystem.com/ss/" target="_self" rel="nofollow">http://www.westsystem.com/ss/</a><br /><br />Too big ?...<br /><br /><a href="http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/261659142/Phenolic_Foam_Thermal_Insulation_Blocks.html" target="_self" rel="nofollow">http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/261659142/Phenolic_Foam_Thermal_Insulation_Blocks.html</a>]]>

			<![CDATA[FWIW, I asked Kingspan about bonding their phenolic boards to timber. They advised me to ask Bostik, who recommended "Serious Stuff".<br /><br />Epoxy is good stuff but be careful to always wear gloves; you can catch a nasty allergy. It can also be pricy and requires mixing, so I tend to regard it as the miracle last resort.<br /><br />The alibaba stuff claims "no Feron as blowing agent". I guess that means Freon, which is good as it would be illegal. But they don't say what blowing agent is used; that might be worth checking]]>
