The Ecological Import. Energetic, visual and fina 128 <strong>ISOVER</strong> mineral-based thermal In order to achieve the passive house standard, the outer wall must have a heat transition coefficient of U � 0.15 W/m2K. Depending on the heat-insulating properties of the load-bearing outer walls and on the thermal conductivity of the insulation material used, it may be necessary to install an external thermal insulation system of up to 40 cm thickness. Modern external thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS) based on mineral raw materials combine best insulating properties with ease of handling. Compared to conventional insulation systems, the additional expense pays off after only a few years, thus enabling house owners to save a lot of money in the long run and go easy on our environment. Good for the outdoor and good for the indoor climate. Especially the completely mineralbased insulation systems of Saint- Gobain Weber are ideally suited for passive homes. This is due to their "natural" origin as well as their high-quality composition. All components of the external thermal
ncial benefits: with insulation systems. insulation system such as adhesive and reinforcing mortar, insulation material and finishing render are exclusively made of naturally occurring mineral raw materials. Finishing mortars as for example the mineral scratch render contain above all silica sand, calcium hydrate, white cement and crushed Jurassic limestone. This has numerous positive effects both for passive homes and their occupants – for instance best climate. Due to the natural, moisture-controlling properties, the masonry remains capable of diffusion despite the very high level of thermal insulation. As a result, the residents are able to enjoy a comfortable room climate while consuming only minimum amounts of energy. At the same time, they can rest assured that their homes enjoy long-term protection against fungi and algae. For the passive home this means an increase in value, for the residents higher quality of life. Beautiful living with added safety. No matter whether it's new buildings or old ones whose facades need to be refurbished to reach the passive house standard – the mineral-based thermal insulation composite systems of Saint-Gobain Weber always show their multifarious advantages. Not only can excellent thermal insulation be realized but also best sound and effective fire protection – all in one go so to speak. And there's the aesthetic appeal on top of it. It is true that meanwhile numerous possibilities exist that allow an individual facade design. But it is also true that since the days of antiquity only mineral mortar has been able to stand the test of time – both technically and aesthetically. A fact which is also proved by the following comparison: While buildings with a non- mineral facade need to be renovated after an average of 8 years, the renovation interval for facades with mineral wool insulation and mineral scratch render is 30 years and longer! To the point: These benefits can be expected of mineral-based thermal insulation composite systems from Saint-Gobain Weber. • Perfect external and internal insulation • Moisture control and capability of diffusion • Maximum fire protection • Optimum sound insulation • Excellent resistance against the growth of fungi and algae • Long service life • Multitude of possible designs – even for old buildings • Rapid and cost-saving workability You want to learn more about the broad product range of Saint-Gobain Weber?
