Mechanical insulation attachment interfaces: SikaRecent Research Landscape

Thermal bridging and structural detachment at joint interfaces compromise building energy efficiency. These innovations engineer the mechanical attachment points to ensure secure, continuous thermal barriers.

What technical problems is Sika addressing in Mechanical insulation attachment interfaces?

Thermal bridge energy loss

(8)evidences

Discontinuities at the junction between structural components and insulation layers create pathways for heat transfer. Eliminating these gaps prevents energy loss and maintains structural thermal integrity.

Structural joint thermal leakage

(8)evidences

Heat transfer and mechanical instability at connection points between dissimilar materials. Minimizing energy loss and structural failure at attachment sites improves overall insulation integrity.

Structural thermal bridge leakage

(3)evidences

Discontinuities at expansion joints and structural interfaces create thermal bridging and environmental vulnerability. Eliminating these gaps prevents energy loss and protects internal structural integrity.
