Thermal separation in existing buildings

The value of older buildings is enhanced by upgrading thermal insulation over large areas, but the effect of thermal bridging where the balcony connects must be minimised. It is Schöck’s ability to meet different construction requirements, that makes it possible to guarantee the same high standard for balcony renovation work in existing building stock as was previously only possible for new buildings.

The result is a combination of architectural design freedom, optimum thermal separation of the construction elements, and full load transfer, if the building has the necessary structural requirements. Unlike new-build, product selection for renovation is subject to certain restrictions and the solution will very much depend on the specific project requirements and the development of customised design proposals.
