Save costs, increase comfort
Thermal insulation - increasing energy efficiency
The façade is the skin of your building: it protects against the weather, optimizes energy consumption, and shapes the architectural character. Our certified craftsmen implement tailor-made solutions, from the restoration of historic plaster façades in line with conservation guidelines to modern composite thermal insulation systems (ETICS). With our expertise in building physics and precision in materials science, we create durable, aesthetic solutions – always in compliance with GEG, EnEV, and local design regulations. Planning reliability thanks to a 15-year warranty on insulation systems.

Economic efficiency & promotion
Savings potential:
-
25-40% reduction in heating costs for older buildings
-
Amortization in 7–12 years (KfW 55 renovation)
-
10-20% increase in property value
Funding opportunities:
-
KfW 261/262: Up to €48,000 subsidy
-
BAFA: 20% subsidy for individual measures
-
Municipal subsidies for monument preservation (e.g., Hesse: 30%, max. €50,000)
- Good insulation reduces heat loss in winter and keeps heat out in summer, saving on heating and air conditioning costs in the long term.
Environmentally friendly living
Lower energy consumption means lower CO₂ emissions, meaning that insulation makes an active contribution to climate protection.Significantly increase living comfort
Insulation material not only improves temperature regulation, but also sound insulation – for a comfortable and quieter home.
Questions and answers
How long does a composite thermal insulation system last?
Service life:
-
Insulation: 40+ years
-
Plaster system: 25-30 years
-
Fastening: 50+ years
Prerequisite: Professional installation + maintenance
-
Do you need a building permit for facade insulation?
Usually no, except for:
-
Listed buildings
-
Change in cubic volume
-
Design guidelines (e.g., half-timbered areas)
-
What is the best insulation for preventing mold?
Recommendations:
-
Mineral wool (diffusion-open, λ=0.035)
-
Calcium silicate interior insulation
-
Hygrothermal simulation in advance
Critical: EPS in old buildings with moisture problems
-
Can a clinker brick facade be insulated
Yes, through:
-
Core insulation (blown-in insulation)
-
Curtain-type rear-ventilated facade in front of clinker bricks
-
Interior insulation with vapor barrier
Cost: 30-50% higher than ETICS
