External Wall Insulation WHY AN EXTERNAL WALL INSULATION COMPOSITE SYSTEM??

What is the purpose of an External Thermal Insulation Composite System?

One solution with many advantages, the main advantages of the External Wall Insulation System are;

  • Continuous thermal insulation of external vertical walls made using different materials

  • No thermal bridges on the facade

  • No risk of condensation at the thermal bridges

  • Higher internal surface temperature of perimeter walls

  • Energy benefits in both winter and summer

  • Improved indoor comfort

  • Greater energy performance of the envelope

  • Cost savings for space heating and/or cooling

  • Less polluting emissions

  • Increased property value.



    • External Wall Insulation protects the wall against temperature variations, bringing energy benefits in both winter and summer and ensuring improved indoor comfort, Protection and durability.
    Temperature variations lead to the formation of tensions on the exterior surface of structures, for this reason, cracks and fissures may occur on the facade, allowing infiltration of water and causing breakages to the finishes and plaster.

    External Wall Insulation System prevents these phenomena by protecting the building and extending its lifespan, for both new and existing buildings.
