Insulation panel seams leveling

With the help of Mirka’s new STYRO Concept, fitting polystyrene insulation could not be cleaner. When leveling panel seams to achieve a uniform structure, debris is created from sanding insulation foam. To solve this, Mirka’s ergonomic and easy to use LEROS-S wall sanders are fitted with a STYRO backing pad, interface and Iridium STYRO abrasives to make sanding work easy, clean and fast. The system is suitable for sanding underground and external insulation panels alike.

Use grit 80 and 60 for light and medium dense polystyrene insulation such as EPS and grit 40 for very dense material such as e.g. XPS.
Mirka’s LEROS-S wall sander is designed to reduce strain on the operator, helping you to make quick work of the job at hand. Thanks to efficient abrasives and powerful dust extraction, you can minimize both the time needed for the sanding process and the amount of debris from sanding foam. The combination of ergonomic sander design and dust-free sanding reduces discomfort as well as the risk of occupational disease, especially in tackling large areas such as wall insulation.
