"High thermal insulation means environmental protection"
Against the backdrop of impending climate change caused by the increasingly powerful greenhouse effect, saving energy is one of today's key issues, because it helps to conserve existing resources and reduce CO2 emissions. What’s more, legal regulations and ordinances require us to cut down on energy consumption and thus also to improve thermal insulation in buildings. The construction industry is the biggest customer for rigid foams as a thermal insulating material. By providing its Baymer® products in combination with Desmodur® products, Bayer MaterialScience AG offers high-performance raw materials for the manufacture for cost-effective materials of construction. Owing to the rigid polyurethane foam's low thermal conductivity, it is possible to save more than half of the average heating energy consumed, particularly in older, poorly insulated buildings.
The key advantages of insulating panels are unmistakable:
High thermal insulating capacity for increased heating energy savings
High compressive strength
Light weight
CFC-free
Excellent long-term behavior
Large range of products
Easy to work with
Biologically and chemically resistant
Rot-proof
Good dimensional stability
Emission-free and moisture-resistant in dry construction
Excellent fire safety classification
Inexpensive material for modernizing buildings
Controlled quality
Insulating panels can be used from the basement to the attic.
