Window reveal elements

Thermal bridge-free installation in the insulation layer without risk of settling.

    Technical characteristics:

  • Can be screwed together with a force-fit connection
  • Can be machined with standard woodworking tools
  • available in all shapes and sizes
  • Thermal insulation up to λ = 0.038 W/mK

Special feature: Diffusion-open and therefore perfect for contact with wood – prevents waterlogging and condensation.

Constructive connection details for timber construction and 15 years of experience in the design of building connections

Important note: COMPACFOAM is particularly diffusion-open (μ ≈ 25 according to EN 12086-1). This makes it compatible with open-pored wooden wall constructions without any problems. Lengths up to 6 m, cross-sections from 10×20 to 600x400 mm. 15 years of project experience and planning support from our application engineering team.
