Insuclad
Insuclad
Insuclad is an advanced Exterior Insulation and Finish System (EIFS/ETICS) designed to wrap the entire building envelope in a continuous layer of thermal protection.
Component | Description |
Insulation Core | High-density EPS or XPS boards (Fire-retardant grade) |
Adhesive | Polymer-modified cementitious mortar with high bond strength |
Reinforcement | Alkali-resistant fiberglass mesh for impact durability |
Mechanical Fixings | Specialized plastic anchors for secure structural attachment |
Final Finish | Decorative acrylic or mineral plaster (Graffiato) in various textures |
Elimination of Thermal Bridges: Exterior insulation prevents heat transfer through concrete columns and beams, ensuring a stable indoor climate.
Exceptional Energy Savings: Reduces air conditioning and heating costs by up to 50% by maintaining the thermal mass of the interior walls.
Structural Protection: Shields the building's skeleton from thermal stresses, expansion, and contraction caused by seasonal temperature changes.
Retrofitting & Renovation: An ideal solution for upgrading old buildings' efficiency and appearance without the need for interior demolition.
Lightweight Design: Does not add significant structural loads compared to heavy marble or stone cladding.
Weather Resistance: UV-resistant, salt-resistant, and moisture-proof final layers designed for harsh climates.
Modern Villas & Palaces: Achieving superior thermal comfort with premium aesthetic finishes.
Commercial & Administrative Buildings: Drastically lowering operational overheads related to HVAC systems.
Large-Scale Residential Projects: Increasing property value while providing a sustainable living environment.
Hospitals & Hotels: Where strict engineering standards for thermal stability and hygiene are required.
Facade Renovation: Completely transforming the look of aging structures with added insulation benefits.
Substrate Prep: Ensure the facade is level, clean, and free from dust, oils, or loose paint.
Board Application: Apply adhesive to the insulation boards and mount them in a staggered "brick" pattern.
Mechanical Anchoring: Drill and install plastic anchors to ensure long-term stability and wind-load resistance.
Base Coat & Mesh: Apply the reinforced mortar and embed the fiberglass mesh to strengthen the surface against impacts.
Final Texture: Apply the decorative colored plaster (Graffiato) in the chosen architectural pattern.
