Thermal bridge-free installation of solar shading elements
Solar shading has become an integral part of modern residential construction. In order to reduce energy costs for cooling buildings, the prevention of thermal solar energy input is taking center stage. Increasing façade insulation thicknesses and the simultaneous desire for thermal bridge-free installation make it more difficult to install solar shading systems.
With the COMPACFOAM assembly elements, this is achieved in a simple and economical way. COMPACFOAM is used as a structural insulating element for folding shutters, sliding shutters, awnings, external venetian blind rails and canopies, so that the previously required thermal bridge-free installation is child's play, even with the thickest insulation thicknesses.
Applications in sun shading
Roller shutter side cover
Optimize your roller shutter box with the COMPACFOAM-Roller shutter side cover. Thanks to its strength, the shaft bracket can be screwed on directly. At the same time, the side cover has excellent thermal insulation values. On request, the side cover comes with the required hole pattern - ready for installation.

Substructure Guide rails
External blinds and external venetian blinds are guided laterally by guide rails. However, the substructure of these rails is becoming increasingly difficult due to increasing façade insulation thicknesses. With COMPACFOAM as a substructure material, installation is easy and thermal bridge-free. Because COMPACFOAM is installation material and insulation at the same time. Our rods are available in any cross-section - even in small quantities.

Folding and sliding shutters mounting elements
Hinged shutters in particular exert incredible forces on the substructure. Elements must be permanently stable, pressure-resistant and, above all, well insulating. Even with very high façade insulation thicknesses, the COMPACFOAM mounting block meets these requirements. The mounting block is attached directly to the wall with adhesive as an element of the full thermal insulation. To attach the awning bracket, bolt anchors or a threaded rod are anchored through the mounting block into the load-bearing wall.

Mounting elements for awnings
Increasing façade insulation thicknesses require new solutions for fixing awnings, as previous fixing systems usually only work up to an ETICS thickness of 160 mm. Installation should also be simple and free of thermal bridges. COMPACFOAM meets these requirements. You can COMPACFOAM in any desired format - ready-made as a mounting block or to cut to length yourself as a mounting rod. On request, we can take the hole pattern of the bracket into account.

FAQ
The choice of the right material class depends primarily on the required screw pull-out strength and compressive strength. Larger screws generally allow the use of a lighter material class. Typical material classes are
Window installation: CFeco and CF125
Sandwich cores for vehicle and furniture construction: CF200
Thermal break for steel structures: CF200, CF300, CF400
We are happy to support you in dimensioning and selecting the right material class to ensure that the solution is optimally tailored to your requirements. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or uncertainties!
Yes, COMPACFOAM is available in individual dimensions. The only limitation is usually the practical transport dimensions. Profiling and milling according to customer specifications are also possible.
Standard panels are available in all required thicknesses and strength classes. Cutting to size is easy with normal woodworking machines. Please use the saw blade recommended by us with a large tooth spacing. No substances harmful to health or the environment are produced during cutting.
The minimum dimensions are 6 mm thickness, 10 mm widthand the maximum dimensions are 500 mm thick, 1300 mm wide and 6000 mm long. Standard panels are also available for self-cutting.
All screws with a wood thread are suitable for installation. If there is sufficient space, a window frame screw with a diameter of 7.5 mm is recommended. Wood screws with a diameter of 4 mm are ideal for smaller components. Pre-drilling is not necessary and screws can also be used close to the edge without any problems.
COMPACFOAM has an unlimited shelf life under normal conditions. Moisture, water and frost do not affect the technical properties. UV radiation only has a minor superficial effect, meaning that even prolonged outdoor storage during the construction phase is unproblematic.
