European developer of energy-efficient window products Beck+Heun GmbH presented systems for building renovation at BAU 2023. Among other products of the company, visitors saw the Thermo-Flex (Neoline) insulation. It has designed for further insulation of already installed roller shutter boxes by window or roller shutter installers.
Thermo-Flex has made from BASF Neopor expanded polystyrene insulation and Eskaro Styropor latex-based adhesive. It has an internal diffusion layer.
The sheet has to cut to the required size, bent and folded into a box.
The company also has the Reno-Therm profile to prevent mould formation after replacing windows in an old building without insulating the facade.

Background
Products for reconstruction are relevant for Europe. The EU is currently discussing increasing energy efficiency by 2030. And according to the German energy agency DENA, about three-quarters of the old building stock was built before the first thermal insulation decree came into force in 1979. And these buildings have often been not renovated.
Products for reconstruction are relevant for Ukraine. As of autumn 2022, more than 2.4 million Ukrainians have damage or destroy houses as a result of russia’s military aggression. The number of destroyed or damaged objects reaches more than 170,000. These figures were provided by Oleksandr Kubrakov, Deputy Prime Minister for Restoration of Ukraine - Minister for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine. The buildings will need to be restored. The SAEE insists that energy efficiency should be the key principle of reconstruction. The Fund for Decarbonisation and Energy Efficient Transformation of Ukraine has already been established to finance energy efficiency programmes.
