Our products have excellent thermal insulation ability and thanks to well-thought-out product developments, any building or family house can be constructed without thermal bridges structurally, from the foundation.
The advantages of the IsoteQ® intelligent building elements – compared to the conventional ones:
- There is no need for hoists or loaders, not even when transporting.
- There is no need for loaders at the construction site either.
- It is not a problem to move further the elements that have already been put down.
- They do not hinder continuous work.
- To change the place of 50 m² – that is 10 packages – of IsoteQ® building elements does not take more than 5 minutes for 1 person.
- When constructing the walling, 1 package – that is 5 m² – of wall elements can be moved together by hand force, and it only takes 1 person.
- Workers will not get tired from the weight of bricks, so their efficiency is not lowered by these elements.
- The phase of building the walls above 1.5 m does not require any hard physical work.
- The elements can easily be lifted up to the scaffold and placed into the walling structure from there. Developing the walling from IsoteQ® elements is so fast and easy that it may even be done by only one person standing on a pair of steps, without being exposed to heavy physical burden. This obviously increases its efficacy.
The same applies to the lintels above doors and windows:
- The IsoteQ® lintel can be put in its place easily by only one person.
- When puting in IsoteQ® ceiling blocks, mechanical aid is restricted to the concrete pump only.
- There is no need to worry about beams and plenty of delicate fillings to be lifted up by the aid of a crane and put into place with hard and time-consuming work.
- The IsoteQ® slab system can easily be cut to any size.
The interior can be shaped by individual taste:
- The standard dimensions of the prefabricated, prestressed beams do not determine the interior spaces of the building.
- In the case of a conventional multi-storey building, the problems caused by the weight of the conventional building elements arise – hoist, carrying the elements to their place -, but this time several metres high. Also, debris has to be brought down from the upper storeys: the refuse chute and the containers generate extra costs, too.
- When constructing a building form IsoteQ® elements, there is NO building debris. (Provided that the building is designed to be built from IsoteQ® system.)
- The IsoteQ® building system is entirely thermal bridge-free.
- This cannot be said of conventional building elements – those can only be made thermal bridge-free with the aid of auxiliary materials – which also generates extra costs (wages and material costs).
- Even the IsoteQ® Normal element can provide better thermal insulation than a conventional wall.
- Energy consumption required for the upkeep of the building is significantly lower.
- IsoteQ® Passive Houses represent the most modern building technology of our age.
- This system is outstandingly energy-saving!
- On IsoteQ® elements surface finishing with cladding materials is easier.
- The srength of IsoteQ® walls stand every test, even earthquake motions.
- IsoteQ® walls will never crack!
- Sanitary engineering works can be carried out quickly, easily, free from dust and debris.
- The system provides the thermal bridge-free building-in of doors and windows (the case is heat-insulated all around).
- These works involve heavy costs (wages and material costs) in the case of a house built from conventional building elements.
The special advantages of THE BUILDING CONTRACTOR in 13 points:
-
- less people needed
- greater efficiency
- lower costs
- significantly longer execution season
- employees can be engaged longer
- lower per-unit costs of labourforce
- several executions can be takne on within the same period of time
- more certain time of delivery
- shorter time of realization
- trust in the building contructor grows
- the good reputation of the contractor grows (this creates a new market for them)
- costs are lowered further as there is only a minimal need for skilled labour
- to assemble the IsoteQ® elements one person is enough, who puts down the first row precisely. Fitting up the rest of the elements hardly needs any skills.
The basis of comparison:
Our customers always ask first about the comparison with the traditional building systems. But the comparison is not accurate until the systems do not provide the same performance technically. Of course, from this derive differences in price until we introduce for You with calculations these systems harmonized on the same level (with auxiliary thermal insulations).
Here we emphasize and compare chiefly the differences in the thermal technique. We could mention the limitless alternatives provided by our elements combined with load-bearing monolithic and reinforced concrete, but because of the acoustic comfort provided by the wall structure’s density, there is no need for further demonstration. It performs in all aspects far above the so-called traditional wall structures.
But for us, only one aspect is enough to prove You our products’ appropriate heat-technical protection for Your home.
