Thermal Insulation Systems

What is thermal insulation
& what is thermo-facade?


Thermal insulation is generally characterized by any measure taken to reduce the heat transfer between objects. Thermal insulation is distinguished in two major categories: internal insulation and external insulation.
Thermal or external thermal insulation is called the application of an insulating system to the exterior walls of the building. Insulation systems typically consist of 7 phases of special heat insulating materials.
More specifically:
Phase 1: Putting paste onto the wall-to-wall.
Phase 2: Placing insulating plates
Phase 3: Fixing the insulating plates with special plugs.
Phase 4: Placing a base coat with adhesive properties.
Phase 5: Reinforcement of the base coat with special glass mesh.
Phase 6: Priming with special primer.
Phase 7: Finishing coat color or white.


Why to insulate

Very simple:
• To protect yourself from the cold winter and the extreme heat of the summer! up to 60% energy savings !!
• To save yourself from dampness! External thermal insulation protects against external moisture, rain water, indoor moisture, while preventing the growth of mold and micro-organisms!
• Why thermal insulation is a drive that does not require any maintenance!

External Thermal Insulation System Vimatec


An External Thermal Insulation Composite System (ETICS) consists of specific materials with specific structure and function that are used for the thermal insulation of the external walls of buildings. Thermo-insulation plates are fixed onto the substrate with the use of glue and special anchors, and are covered by an external coating. This coating is based on a slurry (basic coating) that is reinforced with fibreglass mesh and is completed with the final coloured coating.
An ETICS provides: the most correct application of thermal insulation in construction physics terms, protection of the building exterior from all forms of moisture and free architectural and colour formulation of facades.

High-tech composition, it deeply penetrates the surface of the substrate and provides better adhesion.
Apply to old or new surfaces, such as plaster or stucco walls. It reinforces and stabilises porous surfaces to be painted with emulsion or acrylic paint.
Due to the decrease in surface absorbance, the time required for painting is reduced, and the paint coverage is increased. It is also used as a primer to the surfaces to be coated with a colored plaster, so as to reduce the absorbency of the substrate and let the colored plaster dry evenly.

PERLOROCK 3 & 5


PERLOROCK 3 & 5 is mineral perlite which has been mechanically treated (heated in high temperature 800 - 1200°C). Τhe initial perlite grains expand  at high temperature and numerous  closed cells are  formed  inside them, providing  multiple insulation properties. The main use of PERLOROCK 3 & 5 is the production of perlite concrete, which is a type of lightweight concrete, used for filling of floors or roofs’ surfaces and for the creation of slopes, providing the insulation properties of  expanded perlite.
