ISO-Chemie's ISO-Bloco Hybratec multifunctional joint sealing tape has been tested by Dr. Feist's Passive House Institute in Darmstadt (IPH) for use in passive house construction.Due to its remarkable functional properties, ISO-Bloco Hybratec has officially received the award of “certified component for passive house”.This multifunctional tape developed for the three-level sealing of window and door connections was tested by the renowned institute, according to the strict test specifications in the category “window connection sealing system”.It should be noted that in the construction of passive houses, the high tightness of a building is of vital importance to keep the air conditioning needs very low;In window sealing, high-quality sealing of the tightness level plays an important role.To ensure performance in practice, ISO-Bloco Hybratec was also tested in a realistic installation situation during the test procedure.To do this, multiple tests were carried out with different window frame materials, both in solid construction and wood connection situations.The tightness test of the joint between the window and the wall was carried out on solid and light walls.In the case of wooden construction, wooden walls made of airtight osb boards or phenolic panels were used.In the solid wall installation situation, airtight lightweight concrete panels were used, along with the ISO-Top Winframer “TYP 3” front wall mounting system for the installation of windows with optimized thermal bridge.The front wall mounting system used is also from ISO-Chemie.ISO-Top Winframer “TYP 3” was already awarded the title of “certified passive house component” by the passive house institute in 2018 and has since been approved for “in front of the wall” window element installation in passive houses.With the successful passive house certification, ISO-Bloco Hybratec has proven its suitability for passive house construction as a “watertight window connection system”.The multifunctional joint sealing tape equipped with a new hybrid technology shows excellent values ​​in all three sealing levels, according to the three-level model of the RAL “guidelines for installation”.At the interior sealing level, the separation of indoor and outdoor weather, the energy efficient sealing tape was tested with excellent air tightness and offers the highest thermal protection."Uncontrolled convective heat loss and drafts through the connection joint can be effectively prevented, an important aspect in energy-saving construction," they say from ISO-Chemie.Also, by integrating several barrier layers in the form of blocking sheets, ISO-Bloco Hybratec complies with the RAL principle “tighter inside than outside”.A high drying effect allows moisture to escape from the joint to the outside in a controlled way and dry.In this way, the formation of mold and the resulting structural damage can be prevented from the start.In the functional field, ISO-Bloco Hybratec has very good acoustic and thermal insulation.In addition, the MF-1 certified multifunctional tape has a rain tightness of more than 1,050 pa at the weather protection level.“Especially considering climate change and the increasing frequency of extreme weather events with heavy storms and precipitation, a high level of driving rain protection is of great importance to investors, homeowners and residents,” they underline from the company.ISO-Bloco Hybratec also has “extraordinary expansion force” with long-term functional reliability in terms of permanent movement absorption capacity.ISO-Chemie offers a 10-year performance guarantee on the product.ISO-Bloco hybratec has already received several awards.The RAL Quality Association for building waterproofing systems awarded the waterproofing product the RAL quality mark “joint sealing components and systems”.In addition, it bears the EC1plus seal and, as a "very low emission" product, belongs to the premium class according to the emicode criteria of the Gemeinschaft Emissionskontrollierte Verlegewerkstoffe, Klebstoffe und Bauprodukte eV (Association for Flooring Installation Materials, Adhesives and Construction Products with emission control), one more distinction for ecological construction.Of course, the multifunctional tape also meets the requirements of the Building Energy Act (GEG).As they point out from ISO-Chemie, "with certified products for passive houses, planners, contractors and building owners have a high degree of security for the success of the construction of a passive house".In this regard, several products from the manufacturer of energy efficient and sustainable building sealing solutions have already been certified as suitable building components for passive houses.In addition to ISO-Bloco Hybratec and ISO-Bloco One multifunctional joint sealing tapes, ISO-Top Winframer “TYP 1” and “TYP 3” pre-wall mounting systems have been awarded by the Passive House Institute .ISO-Chemie products help reduce the primary energy consumption of buildings and thus contribute to the success of the energy transition.Although the balance of the first semester is positive, with an increase of 5.44% compared to the same period of 2021, the area approved for new construction and rehabilitation falls for the first time after five consecutive quarters on the rise, according to statistics from the architectural colleges.The International Exhibition of Solutions for the Electrical and Electronic Industry (Matelec) will contribute to boosting the lighting market, a sector that foresees an increase of 4% by 2022, up to 1,340 million euros, according to Anfalum, a member of the organizing committee of the fair.Its objective has been to promote knowledge of the latest technologies applied to wood among students of higher education for the construction of medium and high-rise buildings.And with this promote, among other social and environmental benefits, sustainable forest growth, employment in the wood industry or the reduction of greenhouse gases in the building sector.The manufacturer of acoustic dampers and anti-vibration systems for plasterboard systems and machinery is preparing a great merchandising campaign with the order of its most innovative products.Located in Sant Cugat del Vallès, this eight-storey office building designed by Bailorull Arquitectura with advice from HAUS Healthy Buildings, has become a benchmark for architecture committed to health and sustainability.Despite the fact that the growth forecasts for this year are lower than those of the last Euroconstruct report, Spain belongs to the group of countries where it is believed that in 2023 part of the production could emerge that will have difficulties to be executed in 2022. If this transfer coincides With a stabilization of costs, it can be expected that 2023 (5.5%) will be more expansive than in the forecast six months ago.Milan, Barcelona and Porto brought together both companies in meetings that reveal the way and mentality of work to promote co-creation projects between companies.The presidents of both organizations have ratified an agreement by which they undertake to adapt this tool that, initially, was developed for the Community of Aragon and their respective professional associations.The two entities expect the adaptation to be operational at the beginning of next August.The Spanish Association of Brick and Tile Manufacturers (Hispalyt) calls for new measures to support the gas-intensive industry, such as the aid in section 2.4 "Aid to cover additional costs due to an exceptionally large increase in gas and electricity prices" of the "Temporary Framework" of the European Commission, which have already been approved in France.Email info@cicconstruccion.com© Copyright 2021 - cicconstruccion.com |All rights reserved
