Traditerm® Panel EPS
Thermal insulation panel made of self-extinguishing expanded polystyrene, used in the TRADITERM® external thermal insulation system. The expanded polystyrene panel is used as insulation within the TRADITERM® System both in new and restoration work. Its a light and workable material, also easy to cut. The range of thicknesses provide different levels of thermal insulation. It has an excellent resistance to aging.
Additional information
Composition
Thermal insulation panel made of self-extinguishing expanded polystyrene.
Features and applications
- Light and manageable material.
- Easy to cut.
- Permeable to water vapor.
- Range of thicknesses which provide different levels of thermal insulation.
- Excellent resistance to aging.
Instructions for use
- The panels are fixed to the substrate using TRADITERM® adhesive mortar, which is applied to the panel beforehand, using the method of a bead of mortar or a notched trowel. The placement of the panels is done in a staggered way (minimum gap between the vertical joints of the panels of 25 cm).
- After a minimum of 24 hours, sand down the surface of the panels to correct any slight unevenness.
- Put fastening anchors into the panels, 8 units per m². The top part of the anchor should be inserted a few mm into the panels. Afterwards the surface over anchor should be smoothed using TRADITERM® mortar.
- Finally, coat the panels with TRADITERM® mortar, reinforced with TRADITERM® mesh.
Cautions and recommendations
- When applying the adhesive mortar to the panels, apply this product 2 cm away from the edges of the panel to prevent the adhesive overflowing and generating thermal bridges when the panel is pressed onto the substrate.
- Reinforce all the corners of the panels using the profiles available in the TRADITERM® System.
- In areas exposed to impact, reinforce the panels by using a double TRADITERM® mesh.
- Avoid joints of panels being aligned with window vertices and corners of holes so as to prevent cracks forming.
- Reinforce these vertices with 20 x 40 cm strips of mesh.
- Material is not resistant to solar radiation and organic solvents.
Packaging
The panels should be stored in a dry place protected from the rain, sun and extreme temperatures.Ultraviolet radiation can cause degradation of the surface of the panel if it is stored directly exposed to sunlight.Product considered Non-Hazardous for transport.
