Aerogel Insulation Panels

It retains temperatures within the space

Thermal wrap - provide the superinsulating properties

Useful as a translucent fabric for daylighting and acoustic damping in buildings

Aerogel based plasters

Source : Buratti C. et.al. 2014.Development of Innovative Aerogel Based Plasters:Preliminary Thermal and Acoustic Performance Evaluation. www.mdpi.com/journal/sustainability It is made with natural lime coat and silica aerogel

It can be applied in the walls of existent buildings that need refurbishments

It improve the thermal insulation properties

AEROGEL CONCRETE

Composite made from Aerogel granulate and Inorganic Gypsum or plaster Cement Energy savings by thermal isolation measures

Regulation of indoor climate

High fire protectionSource : Lorenz R., 2011.Aerogels - Structure, properties and applications, Institute for material physics in space, Germany.
