Boosting building performance with more sustainable solutions
PUR/PIR insulation boards and polycarbonate sheets: the best for your building
Performance without compromise
With outstanding thermal conductivity, PUR/PIR insulation enables thinner insulation layers while maintaining excellent performance – up to 50 % of space are saved compared to conventional insulation. This allows buildings to meet the highest energy efficiency standards and reduces operational costs tied to heating and cooling.
Transparent polycarbonate sheets fulfill multiple requirements in industrial and construction. They are lightweight, tough and energy efficient, with a wide range of colours and degrees of transparency. A perfect fit for roofing and facades, light panels and skylights.
Environmental impact and sustainability
As part of STADTQUARTIER 2050, a climate-neutral housing project in Germany, high-performance insulation boards from puren –based on our raw materials – help meet strict energy standards like KfW 40 Plus. The slim, durable boards reduce energy use and embodied carbon, save space inside buildings, and lower resource consumption. The project sets a strong example for more sustainable, affordable urban housing in Europe.
Design flexibility and efficiency
From compact urban developments to complex renovations, our materials are engineered for efficiency. PUR/PIR insulation made from our Desmodur® MDI offers lightweight properties and easy installation that streamline construction workflows, while Makrolon® PC sheets provide unmatched design versatility – including customizable transparency, colour and form – enabling architects to shape both the function and feel of a space.
Renovating the past for the future
Transforming historic buildings
Historic buildings are both treasures and challenges. Many need better insulation. Our PU foam, which is applied in PUR/PIR insulation, enables renovations that maintain architectural integrity while meeting modern energy standards. Our PUR/PIR insulation enables renovations that maintain architectural integrity while meeting modern energy standards.
Insulation that performs on every level
By reducing heating and cooling demands by up to 70%, PUR/PIR insulation lowers operational costs over the building’s lifespan. This affordability, combined with enhanced energy efficiency, supports more sustainable, cost-effective housing solutions. Ideal for both new buildings and retrofits – from urban housing to historic landmarks.
