HIGH-QUALITY AND LONG-LASTING INSULATON

THE ISOTEC SYSTEM

ISOTEC is a thermal insulation system made of polyurethane with an integrated steel stiffener, developed by Brianza Plastica to create high-energy-efficiency buildings with an insulated and ventilated building envelope.

The ISOTEC® system is a cutting-edge solution for ventilated roofs and facedes, ideal for both renovations and new buildings.

ADVANTAGES OF THE ISOTEC SYSTEM

ISOLAMENTO TERMICO
ESTIVO ED INVERNALE

Isotec ha un’anima in poliuretano espanso rigido a celle chiuse, con densità 38 Kg/m³; tale materiale è attualmente tra i migliori isolanti termici esistenti. Gli spessori del pannello Isotec disponibili, in funzione delle prestazioni termiche dell’involucro, consentono di soddisfare i requisiti minimi di ogni zona climatica.

ELIMINAZIONE
PONTI TERMICI

Il Sistema Isotec consente di realizzare un isolamento termico esterno continuo ed omogeneo dell’involucro edilizio, eliminando i ponti termici e riducendo le oscillazioni termiche, sia in copertura che in parete, grazie alla sua conformazione a battenti contrapposti sul lato lungo e a coda di rondine su quello corto.

MICRO-VENTILATION /
VENTILATION

The ventilation created within the air chamber between the roof covering and the insulating panel significantly enhances the building’s natural heat-regulating properties. The “chimney effect” generates a continuous upward flow of air inside the ventilation chamber, which improves the roof’s thermal performance in summer by dissipating excess heat. In winter, it helps eliminate any condensation that may form inside the air chamber.

PROTECTION AGAINST HUMIDITY AND ACCIDENTAL INFILTRATION

Ventilation plays a key role in eliminating humidity and preventing the formation of mould and condensation inside the roof structure. When installed in accordance with our “Laying Instructions” and on roofs with a slope of 30% or more, Isotec acts as an excellent secondary waterproofing layer. It provides reliable protection against accidental infiltration caused by cracks or imperfections in the roof covering.

THERMAL
RESISTANCE

Thermal resistance (R) takes into account the actual thickness of the panels and provides a clear measure of the insulation’s ability to resist heat exchange. With its wide range of thicknesses and the low thermal conductivity of polyurethane, Isotec delivers the highest thermal resistance values on the market while offering the lowest cost per unit of thermal resistance.

NEW BUILDINGS AND RENOVATIONS

The Isotec system is the ideal solution for renovating and improving the energy efficiency of roofs or walls. It actively contributes to the building’s energy efficiency, enhances its indoor comfort, and offers the possibility to modify its external aestethic appearance with new finishes.

MAXIMUM
COMPATIBILITY

The Isotec system can be applied to any type of structure, whether continuous or discontinuous, using specific mechanical fixings. The system is compatible with all types of cladding , continuous and discontinuous, for both roofs and facades, offering maximum design flexibility.

FAST AND COST-EFFECTIVE INSTALLATION

The Isotec system forms a load-bearing deck that can be walked on safely when installed in accordance with the instructions and the load-bearing capacity table. These factors, together with the opposing batten design, ensure safe, faster and more cost-effective installation.

LIVING
COMFORT

The Isotec system is the ideal solution to improve indoor living comfort throughout the year. In fact, the Isotec system allows a constant temperature to be maintained indoors regardless of external weather conditions.

DURABILITY

The Isotec System for roofs and walls offers exceptional durability thanks to its rigid polyurethane foam core, which is clad on both sides with embossed aluminium foil. This protective layer not only helps maintain the panel’s excellent thermal insulation performance over time, but also functions as an effective vapour barrier.

ENERGY
SAVING

The pre-coupled Isotec System provides roofs and walls with effective thermal insulation combined with ventilation. This results in considerable savings on heating costs in winter and cooling costs in summer while also reducing CO₂ emissions.
