Marmox Thermoblock R2 Nano

Thermal Resistance (R-Value): High R-value rating of 2.0 m²K/W

• Engineering Benefit: Provides superior thermal performance complying with strict green building standards.

Compressive Strength: High load capacity of 9.0 - 10.0 N/mm²

• Engineering Benefit: Safely supports load-bearing walls at the starter course without structural settlement.

Thermal Conductivity (λ Value): Ultra-low conductivity of 0.047 - 0.050 W/mK

• Engineering Benefit: Stops thermal transmission at wall base junctions.

Facing & Bonding Layer: Polymer-modified cement mortar with GRP mesh

• Engineering Benefit: Offers exceptional mechanical bonding with standard bricklayers' cement-sand mortar.

Moisture & Water Absorption: Virtually zero water absorption and 100% moisture resistant

• Engineering Benefit: Functions as a durable damp-proof barrier against capillary rising damp and salt efflorescence.

Maximum Thermal Resistance (R2 Performance): Engineered specifically to achieve demanding thermal efficiency requirements.

Heavy-Duty Load Support: Nano-composite columns transfer structural loads safely to foundation beams.

Integrated Damp Proof Course (DPC): Provides seamless protection against moisture penetration from floor slabs.

Standard Masonry Compatibility: Installed easily as a starter course using conventional cement-sand mortar.

Easy On-Site Adaptation: Simple to cut and shape with a handsaw for corners and wall intersections.

Wall Base Starter Course: Placed as the first course under external and internal walls to decouple them thermally from floor slabs.

Passive & Zero-Energy Buildings: Ideal choice for projects aiming for ultra-low energy consumption and LEED certification.

Parapets & Roof Edge Junctions: Prevents thermal bridging at roof parapets and upper curtain wall bases.

High Humidity & Severe Climate Regions: Protects building structures from extreme temperature transfers and internal condensation.

Substrate Preparation: Ensure foundation beams or ground floor slabs are clean, level, and free of dust.

Mortar Bedding: Spread a uniform bed of standard sand-cement mortar onto the foundation surface.

Block Installation: Lay Marmox Thermoblock R2 Nano blocks tightly as the first masonry course, pressing down evenly.

Joint Sealing: Ensure tight vertical butt joints between units to prevent thermal continuity gaps.

Masonry Continuation: Proceed directly with building conventional bricks or blockwork over the Thermoblock R2 course.
