Wall Insulation
Wall insulation from Austrotherm is the perfect protection against heat loss and increased energy costs. Below you can find a variety of application possibilities.
Austrotherm EPS® F - Thermal Insulation Board for Façades
The Austrotherm EPS®-F (Thermal Insulation Board for Façades) in combination with a composite thermal insulation system (also full thermal insulation, german abbr. „WDVS“) guarantees the highest quality.

By using the Austrotherm EPS® Insulation Board for Façades the standard of low energy buildings (U-value of 0.15 [W/m2K]) can be reached in construction as well as in reconstruction with the lowest costs.

Advantages:
  • Improvement of heat storage due to composite thermal insulation systems
  • Prevention of thermal bridges
  • No mould or condensation loss by using insulation more than 50 mm thick
  • Nearly any façade form is possible
  • Insulation boards of high quality and dimensional accuracy
  • Insulation boards of various thickness can be delivered (from 10 mm to 400 mm)
  • More floor space than by using monolithic brick walls

Austrotherm EPS® F-PLUS - Thermal Insulation Board for Façades
The silver-grey (PLUS) thermal insulation board for external composite thermal insulation systems

Advantages:
The new silver-grey super insulating material from Austrotherm provides, in comparison to the conventional EPS, a better heat insulation by 15%.
  • Optimal for reconstruction
  • for small space conditions (cornice, wall benches, ...)
  • for restrictions according to building regulations
  • the ideal solution for low energy houses and passive houses

To the products:


Austrotherm EPS® FS - Sound Insulation Board for Façades
The innovative thermal and sound insulation board for external composite thermal insulation system.
  • Improvement of sound insulation by 2 to 4 db in comparison to an uninsulated wall
  • free of HCFC, HFC and CFC
  • strongly improved sound insulation properties

Base Insulation
What is the reason for a special base insulation? While choosing insulation for the part of the façade, which is immediately above the ground, one should consider the following factors:
  • high humidity strain as a consequence of rain, snow and splash water
  • thermal bridges between cellar ceiling joint and outside wall
  • higher pressure load, eg as a consequence of possible mechanical strain by bicycles, small vehicles, ball games, etc.

It is recommended to use the Austrotherm XPS®-P insulation board with embossed surface as it has high compression resistance, repel moisture and is ideal as a plastering base.

To the products:


Thermal Bridge Insulation
The Austrotherm TOP®/XPS® P thermal bridge insulation is advisable for all the parts of the shell construction where the thermal insulation thickness varies or where different building materials are used.

The Austrotherm TOP®/XPS® P insulation board with embossed surface can also be used as a shuttering. An insulation board with anchorage (dowel or anchor) is only necessary if the tensile bond strength of the concrete surface is not sufficient.

To the products:


Austrotherm EPS® / XPS® Ceiling Edge Shuttering
Due to the ever increasing demands to the quality of thermal insulation, thermal bridges should not be overlooked. High quality thermal insulation with sufficient solidity can be achieved through the use of the Austrotherm EPS® or XPS® ceiling edge shuttering.

Simply glue the Austrotherm ceiling edge shuttering on the walling and additional shuttering or shoring is not necessary. As soon as the glue has settled concreting can be started.

The advantages of the Austrotherm ceiling edge shuttering are clear:
  • pre-fabricated shutter and insulation element
  • delivered in all common ceiling heights
  • no shuttering work required
  • short mounting time
  • low weight
  • easy handling and workability
  • high stability
  • excellent thermal insulation
  • no thermal bridges
