ROCKWOOL contact facades – safe and high-quality thermal insulation
The quality of the facade system implies much more than thermal characteristics. The system you choose should ensure the unchanged insulating properties of the material throughout the product's lifetime, without hidden risks for the well-being of your home. Rockwool contact facade systems that contain an insulating layer of stone wool of the highest quality ensure the safety and protection you expect. In today's blog, we will present you ROCKWOOL stone wool and their ETICS facade thermal insulation system. Find out why thermal insulation is important, why it is a long-term investment and other characteristics ETICS facade system.
Rock wool – a quality material during installation and the lifetime of the product
Stone wool is a dimensionally stable material that does not expand or shrink with temperature changes, which is important to consider regardless of the substrate on which it is placed. It is extremely durable, does not require additional protection against UV radiation, and does not change its thermal and mechanical properties under the influence of the Sun's rays. Thanks to the natural properties of the raw material, only stone wool can provide the durability and stability of the entire facade throughout the product's lifetime.
Interior comfort
Thermal conductivity is only one of the factors that affect the comfort of the interior. Thanks to the density of stone wool, the heat stays inside the walls, lasts longer and provides a feeling of comfort. Material with a fibrous structure, such as stone wool, enables vapor permeability of contact facades so that moisture does not remain inside the space, which is especially important for preventing the development of mold inside the building. In addition, the stone wool structure contributes to the sound insulating power of the wall construction and reduces the noise of the urban environment.
A long-term investment
Energy costs are constantly increasing and there is no end in sight despite the global energy shortage. The need to save energy is known to most people, especially in private households where there is a huge potential to save on heating and cooling costs. The biggest heat losses occur due to an insufficiently insulated facade, therefore an insulation system with stone wool is a natural solution to reduce energy losses and increase the value of the property.
Highly efficient ETICS system
Whether it is a new construction or a renovation, with a high-quality facade thermal insulation system, make your dream about the comfort and safety of your home come true. Rockwool the insulation is made of non-combustible stone wool, which, in combination with suitable building materials, ensures maximum safety, energy efficiency, durability and economy. Comfort and well-being start already with a suitable building envelope.
