Applications

Exterior Wall Insulation (ETICS)

Exterior insulation with an External Thermal Insulation Composite System (ETICS) has excellent structural-physical properties for the thermal insulation of facades. ETICS with Styropor® have proved their worth in practice for more than 50 years. Insulation boards made of Neopor® continue in this tradition.

ETICS with Neopor® thermal insulation fulfills the thermal insulation requirements manifold and even up to the level of a “zero heating energy house”.

Insulation boards made of Neopor® are the most-used grey facade insulation boards in Europe: more than 10 million laid square meters per year testify to the success of this BASF quality product.

Perimter and Base

Heat loss from heated basements to the surrounding ground can be significantly reduced by installing technically approved Neopor® perimeter insulation panels on the exterior of basement walls.

Perimeter insulation panels made of Neopor® have good lambda values and therefore strong thermal insulation properties. In addition, they are stable under pressure at different installation depths and pressure loads, and are highly resistant to normal soil moisture. During installation, it is important to follow the specifications of the national technical approval for the relevant area of application. Neopor® insulation panels also provide the base of a building with effective protection against heat loss. Perimeter and base insulation panels do not assume functions such as providing drainage or sealing buildings against moisture.
