Polyurethane Systems for building and industry

Thermal conductivity is a physical property that appears in any material, including polyurethane, and it measures the heat conduction capacity through it, or in other words, the transport of heat energy through a body. This energy movement is produced by the...

Current regulations establish the minimum requirements that must be met by buildings, whether it is new construction or renovation, and they determine some parameters of thermal resistances for the enclosure so as to opt for highly efficient insulating products. The...

Knowing the insulation needs of buildings is fundamental to improve their energy efficiency and so that they make a more intelligent use of energy. Therefore, designing their envelope with the optimum insulation thickness is the best strategy to get the most...

Control of indoor air humidity is key to the healthiness of buildings. Even if at first glance we can not perceive the amount of water vapour that is present in the room, on average a person perspires between 3 and 5 litres of water vapour per day.

When facing the challenge of renovating a building, insulation is regarded as a wasteful expenditure of money by the owners and as a major challenge by professionals due to the great diversity of insulating materials in the market.

The current trend in architecture is to achieve more sustainable and energy-efficient buildings. The aim is to reduce polluting emissions while increasing the economic viability of the dwellings.
