Modular Construction
Simple and versatile buildability
The essence of the system lies in its ease of construction; The technology makes it possible to solve structural construction and perfect, thermal bridge-free thermal insulation in one step. Our building system is a residual thermal insulation formwork made from the German BASF NEOPOR material.
BASF started developing its expertise and products for polystyrene foams more than 60 years ago. In 1951, the company’s classic white expandable polystyrene product was patented under the name Styropor®. It has been used in numerous insulation and packaging solutions.
In 1997, BASF took another big step forward when its engineers discovered that the insulating properties of white EPS could be significantly improved by enriching the material with tiny graphite particles. This has resulted in a new product with enhanced performance in the insulation function: Neopor®, which has since become a hugely successful and respected brand – as demonstrated by the incredible amount of construction projects across Europe where it is used.
Neopor for excellent insulation
Neopor® is the further development of BASF’s classic polystyrene foam, Styropor®, which contains graphite particles. This allows up to 20 percent better thermal insulation ability to manufacture products as if using ordinary white polystyrene. The result is an excellent cost/benefit ratio. Neopor is the powerful original grey with thermal conductivity of 0.030-0.035 W/m*K (10°C)
Neopor works in the same way as conventional insulation, with one main difference – high-purity graphite particles give the insulation reflective properties, which increases the energy efficiency of the material.
