Austrotherm supplies facade insulation for turn-of-the-century apartment renovations in Vienna

02 February 2021

 

Austria: Austrotherm says that its Resolution Facade foam insulation product is being used for exterior renovations in Vienna’s many pre-1919 apartment blocks. These kinds of jobs require thin insulation to maintain a building’s profile.

Sales director Robert Novak said, “An apartment building built before 1919 has a heating requirement of 120 - 250kWh/m2. They are therefore five times worse than newly-built residential complexes, which have had to meet the lowest energy house standard across Europe since 1 January 2021.” He concluded, “There is still a lot of renovation potential in this building category.”

Buildings of this period currently house 500,000 people in Vienna and number 30,000, 20% of the total number of residential buildings. 20,000 are in the Wilhelmian architectural style, known for its facades.

Lafarge France launches Airium mineral foam as insulation

29 October 2020

France: LafargeHolcim subsidiary LafargeFrance has relaunched its Airium mineral foam, a concrete block additive, for a new application, namely roof insulation. The company says that Airium has a lifespan of 50 years and “retains heat in winter like most insulation, while also preserving buildings’ freshness in summer” thanks to its phase shift time of over nine hours.

Lafarge France developed the new application in partnership with coatings producer PRB. It said, “We select premium applicators (blowers) from suppliers from LafargeHolcim’s screeds and PRB coatings network. The PRB and Airium partnership thus takes on its full meaning and ensures quality service to new users.”

Knauf Insulation launches new soffit insulation product

20 August 2020

UK: Knauf Insulation has launched a new product in its Earthwool Soffit Linerboard range, intended for use in car parks, stadiums and commercial units. Rock mineral wool product manager Luke Davies said, “Specifications for non-combustible soffit insulation are likely to increase as building regulations evolve further and soffit applications become a focus for fire safety. We’ve improved Earthwool Soffit Linerboard to give customers the best possible solution to respond to this demand.”

The product uses tube washers instead of all-steel for ease of installation and each board has greater rigidity than previous products to reduce susceptibility to thermal bridging. Knauf Insulation says that its ECOSE Technology bio-based binder makes Earthwool Soffit Linerboard soft, durable, easy to handle and low in dust and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
