KABE THERM RENO

EWI (External Wall Insulation) system for providing thermal insulation and additional thermal insulation of previously EPS insulated buildings with an acrylic, polysilicate and silicone external render and wood effect/board effect and renders for spray application of the AKORD line

KABE THERM RENO EWI system is the most popular system of thermal insulation for external walls and for providing additional thermal insulation to walls with an existing EPS-based system*. It is applied in singleand multi-family housing construction industry, public utility and industrial buildings, to the height of up to 25 m (for the buildings erected before 1 April 1995 to the height of eleventh story. Because of its simple
installation technology and low implementation costs it is most frequently used for the thermal upgrade of buildings constructed in old energy-consuming technologies (non-compliant with applicable thermal insulation
requirements). The system can be applied on walls made of small-sized masonry elements(such as e.g.: bricks, blocks, stone etc.) or from concrete (poured on site or in the form of prefabricated panels) or in the form of OSB
wood-based panels according to PN 300 with a density of not less than 780 kg/m3 and bending strength not less than 16 MPa. The OSB boards fixing with the use of KOMBI RAPID polyurethane adhesive and mechanical
fixings. The system can be used on new walls as well as for renovation of the existing ones. It is also possible to use it on horizontal or inclined surfaces that are not exposed to precipitation. The external system layer can be made by using PERMURO, PERMURO AKORD, acrylic renders, NOVALIT T, NOVALIT T AKORD polysilicate renders or ARMASIL T, ARMASIL T AKORD silicone renders available in a wide range of colours and textures and in the wood/board effect. After wetting the silicone ARMASIL T render, the effect of water molecules ‘being repelled’ by silicone resin is observed on its surface. It means that water absorption is greatly reduced and the facade is protected against dirt/dust due to its self-cleaning properties.

• Reduction of heating costs
• Interior micro-climate improvement
• Protection of walls against the impact of adverse atmospheric conditions
• Anti-fungal and algae protection
• A wide range of types, colours and decorative effects of renders
• Opportunity to provide additional external wall insulation for
buildings with existing EPS based insulation
