Where an above-rafter insulation is not possible is, you can use an under-rafter insulation for the roof’s energy optimisation. Using an efficient PU insulation system such as Linitherm PAL GK will reduce the living space only marginally. Between-rafter insulation and internal planking can remain in the existing building while the easily converted insulating elements enable quick and cost-efficient installation.

The conservation status of historic buildings often stipulates maintaining the facade, eliminating the possibility of an exterior wall insulation. The facade of many houses is still intact, so an exterior wall insulation is not an economical solution. In such cases, Linzmeier’ LINITHERM PAL SIL internal wall insulation offers the optimum solution. The product is also suitable for renovating only individual rooms or areas.

As an above-rafter insulation, LINITHERM PAL HW insulating elements not only have the benefit that they create a homogenous insulation layer without thermal bridges reliably protecting the construction below from moisture; they can also be installed time-and cost-effectively and used as a full-faced subconstruction for the metal roofing to be mechanically connected to the face sheet at any point. Thanks to the low gross density of rigid PU foam (33kg/m³), the LINITHERM PAL HW insulation boards in Laichingen, Germany, were placed on the roof quickly and with little effort.

For the extensively grassed flat roof of the nursery in Marktoberdorf, Germany, architect Jochen Schurr chose a bitumen sealing system to achieve an extremely high level of resilience and damage resistance. The prerequisite was an insulation material capable of withstanding the high temperatures of liquid bitumen without damage.

Befitting the high architectural standard of the building, panels of the type LINIT GLQAL were used in Kolding. The outer glass face sheet was complemented by a vacuum insulation and an inner face sheet from 2.0mm aluminium sheets. Only this high-quality vacuum insulation made it possible to match the thickness of the panels to the thickness of the glass facade above.
