BauSATEi® is a system designed for the rehabilitation of the thermal envelope of buildings. It improves its thermal insulation in order to achieve a comfortable interior temperature throughout the year. The resulting energy savings can reach 50 KW-h/m2 year depending on the selected insulation thickness, and allows obtaining the green zone of the Energy Efficiency Rating (A, B and Zero Consumption).
BauSATEi®is made up of a folded expanded polystyrene plate, with a steel mesh attached to it by means of 40 connectors each m2.
The thickness of the plate can vary between 30 and 300 mm depending on the insulation requirements of the building and its density corresponds to Class III: 15 Kg/m3, with a thermal conductivity U = 0.037 W/m K.
It is completed on site by applying a layer of concrete with a compressive strength greater than 16 MPa and an average thickness of 20 mm,
which gives it its characteristic strength.
Provides great savings in heating and air conditioning costs by reducing the U value of the building’s thermal transmittance.
BauSATEi® is the result of the research carried out by the Baupanel® System R+D+i department to improve everything that exists to date in terms of external thermal insulation systems , commonly known in Spain as SATE systems.
Conventional ETICS solutions have very low impact resistance (3 joules) making them very vulnerable to natural wear and tear and accidental or intentional damage.
BauSATEi® is 100 times more resistant (300 joules) since it has been developed from an expanded polystyrene plate reinforced with a high resistance galvanized steel mesh; the zig zag profile of the plate allows to accommodate a robust layer of micro concrete.
