Improving a building’s thermal insulation reduces heat loss and can help lower heating energy demand and costs. Alongside suitable heating systems, insulation of the building envelope—including external walls—is an important part of energy-efficient construction and renovation. Actual savings depend on the building’s existing condition, the insulation measures, heating systems, energy prices and usage.
HASIT insulating plasters form a continuous insulation layer that follows the contours of the substrate. Depending on the product and system, they are suitable for internal or external applications.
Insulating plasters can be an option for improving the thermal performance of existing buildings, including historic and listed properties, where the proposed measures are compatible with conservation requirements. They can accommodate uneven surfaces and architectural details such as window reveals, niches and rounded arches. Suitability, layer thickness and detailing must be assessed for each project, taking account of the substrate, moisture conditions and applicable system requirements.
