What is the ETICS system?

Thermal insulation, known as ETICS(External Insulation Composite System), is a comprehensive method which allows the insulation of both newly constructed buildings and those undergoing renovation.

The covering is adapted to the geometry of the building, including those which are most complex, resolving the majority of thermal bridges of the building.

Its installation ensures a drastic reduction of energy dissipated to the exterior, reducing the need for heating and cooling, allowing continuous energy savings throughout the year (25% of the heat of a home is lost through walls, windows and doors) and maintaining a stable temperature. The reduction of pollutant gas emissions protects the environment.

At a time when energy efficiency and sustainability policies are becoming increasingly important, it is essential to have a system such as ETICS which reduces the need for heating and cooling, which also entails a reduction of pollutant gas emissions, mainly CO₂, contributing to protecting the environment.

Advantages of ETICS

·         Reduction of energy consumption of the home = Economic savings.

·         Environmentally friendly. Reduction of CO₂ emissions.

·         Elimination or minimisation of thermal bridges of the building.

·         Improved thermal comfort of the home.

·         Increases the value of the home.

·         Reduction of noise. Better acoustics.

·         Reduced risk of condensation, mould and mildew.

·         Easy installation. Does not generate loss of area of the home.

·         Protects the structure of the building.
