External Wall Insulation (EWI) has fast become a popular option when specifying a render solution. Whether for a newbuild or an existing property, it can dramatically improve the overall energy efficiency of a building and have a positive impact on the cost of living, reducing fuel bills by up to 40%.
Designed to insulate a building, Fassatherm from Fassa Bortolo is an EWI system that not only enhances an external facade, but keeps buildings warm, improves energy efficiency and reduces the risk of damp through condensation.
Made up of an insulating panel, most commonly mineral wool or expanded polystyrene (EPS), reinforced mesh and finishing render, Fassatherm is a highly versatile system that can be fixed on to a multitude of substrates, thereby making it the ideal choice for most housebuild projects.
Here in the UK, it is common practise to add insulation via the cavity wall of an existing building, or through installing panels internally, however, to avoid eating into living space, Fassatherm is applied to the exterior of the building to maximise all available space.
The Fassatherm system offers a wide spectrum of colours, with 365 colours as standard to suit different projects. With investment in the latest colour matching technology, Fassa can pair existing shades with colour tinting machines to unlock unlimited potential, with any project in any colour, including RAL.
