Thermal Solutions Through the Use of External Insulation
Historically France has made the choice to insulate internally. Thermal rehabilitation, for a large number of constructions built since the 1950’s consist in intervening sustainably in order to improve their longevity. Thermal requirements for building that are renovated are therefore very high.
External insulation is often the most efficient way to improve the thermal insulation of an existing communal building. It allows for an intervention on occupied sites and treats efficiently and easily a large number of thermal bridges.
Certain associated products are still unknown because they are rarely used and applied in numerous regions. Fixinox offers integrated technical solutions that optimize and can answer both energetic and architectural requirements for ambitious renovation projects.
Heavy claddings that are externally connected with stainless steel systems offer:
- Higher shock resistance
- A fast installation thanks to the use of a dry process and large prefabricated surfaces
- The use of traditional materials that which have a known weathering process
- Stainless steel is the ideal technical compromise because it allies three intrinsic qualities :
- Excellent structural performance
- Resistance to both corrosion and fire
- Low* thermal conductivity
