Brick and wood fibre: it fits!
Most old brick buildings have a rock-solid structure. Like wood, bricks are also naturally sourced building materials and bring positive qualities into the house. It is only in terms of energy that old brickwork is not up to date. With the STEICOprotect L dry façade insulation system, these houses can be future proofed to protect from rising energy costs.
Green is good. But not on the façade.
External thermal insulation composite systems with STEICOprotect L dry wood fibre insulation boards offer natural protection against algae and fungi on the façade. The secret is their particularly high heat storage capacity.
During the day, the insulation boards absorb the heat of the day. Due to their high heat storage capacity, the façade cools down only very slowly in the evening. The surface remains warmer than with many conventional insulation materials. In turn, only little humidity condenses on warm surfaces. And drier surfaces deprive algae and fungi of the basis for life.
