optimal combination of Environmental protection and energy saving in construction
The air conditioning of residential and commercial buildings consumes large amounts of energy. Because it would generate high levels of CO2 emissions within. Thus, in Germany about a third of CO2 emissions is due to the air conditioning of buildings. Much of it is unnecessary. Because energy consumption and associated emissions could be reduced if the homes would be better insulated. Experts estimate the savings through more effective insulation of buildings to approximately € 40 billion over the next ten years. This suggests, of course, not only in a better environmental balance but also in lower costs for homeowners and tenants down.
Many offers promise high savings, and it is therefore important, among the various methods for selecting the one insulation that meets the requirements of sustainable building is the best.
Company COM uses concept on shuttering blocks Neopor
A development of construction technology delivers a surprisingly simple answer: formwork, which has long been used in civil engineering successfully, suitable also outstanding for the construction of optimal insulating house walls. Here in particular have proven formwork elements made of polystyrene foam. Such molds weigh only about 4-5 kg per square meter of wall, to turn them into solid walls of buildings, which it is embedded in cavities are filled with concrete. While the conventional technique complicated formwork building, they poured with concrete, then removed again and then begins with the insulation will be created here practically in a single pass an insulated wall. Meanwhile, BASF has
its polystyrene foam developed and provides them under the name of Neopor. The company is
COM concept for good reasons on insulation which was developed by the BASF foam Neopor: It combines a - compared with traditional materials - very high insulating performance with less raw material. This will the manufacturing cost and therefore the price is kept low for the end user and minimizes the environmental impact of raw material consumption. Moreover Neopor is an environmentally friendly insulation material, it contains no CFC, HCFC, HFC or other halogenated gases cell. Air replaces the gas cell, which has the additional advantage that the thermal conductivity can be obtained over the life of the formwork elements of the house. The material is biologically neutral and free of pollutants, it is even used as food packaging and the groundwater is not affected by its degradation - on the contrary, rigid foam waste is mixed in gardening in the ground and support the growth of plants or composting.
