Innovative membranes for

future-proof homes

Housing associations, owners and maintenance organisations are facing the challenging task of making their real estate more sustainable. The construction membranes of Meuwissen Gerritsen benefit residents as well as the buildings themselves. The innovative membranes of Meuwissen Gerritsen help you to create healthy indoor climates in energy-efficient homes.

Insulation and energy label

A high energy-efficiency score will not only help building owners to reduce maintenance and energy costs, but will also improve the value of their property. This can be achieved in various ways, including solar panels and heat pumps. The most effective approach is to avoid energy being wasted when heating the building. A good way to achieve effective insulation is to place a membrane on both sides of the insulation material and to make it airtight using the correct tape.

Cost-effective maintenance

Moisture is one of the most commonly encountered causes of high maintenance costs. It creates an unhealthy indoor climate and also damages the construction. If insulation material becomes moist, it becomes less effective or loses its efficiency altogether. This can lead to high maintenance costs for owners and housing associations. The moisture-regulating and insulating properties of these membranes protect vital structural components at a fraction of the cost of repair and renovation.

Sustainability

The simple designs used for social housing in recent decades no longer meet current requirements. When improving the sustainability of such homes, there is often not enough space in walls, outer walls and roofs. Alkreflex® is regularly used for renovation activities in such situations. This multi-layer reflective insulation membrane offers insulating and moisture-regulating properties, but is a lot thinner than traditional insulation material. Alkreflex® helps to improve insulation and thus maximise energy-efficiency.
