What is Polytech® Module System?

Polytech® Module System is a system of prefabricated wall panels designed for the construction of
internal and external walls in buildings at lightning speed. Polytech® Module System is a response to the expectations of the market for low-energy buildings. The Polytech® MS panels used for external walls are made as permanently fixed two-layer walls. Each such panel consists of a 30-cm thick structural part (or layer) of the Polytech specially modified lightweight thermal insulating mortar material and an additional thermal insulation layer of 17 cm in thickness. There are no air gaps between the two layers!

Why choose prefabricated wall panels?

The Polytech® Module System offers many benefits. These include, in particular, very good thermal
insulation properties. Polytech®MS prefarbicated panels are safe, durable and adequately resistant to mechanical loads. The benefits of the Polytech® Module System can be enjoyed in the production process as well as during the construction of the building and, later, when it is in use.

In the production process and during transport operations

  • The polystyrene foam waste can be reused.
  • The relative low specific weight of the prefabricated panels means that lifting equipment with a lower load capacity can be used to save money. The costs of transporting the panels can also be reduced.
  • Energy consumption in the production of Polytech® Module System panels is low.
  • The dimensional repeatability of the standard panels means that they can be easily modified to suit the particular requirements of your project and to construct a wall of any length ranging from 0.30 m to 3.60 m (with stepless length adjustment) and of up to 3.0 m in height! The standard length of a Polytech® prefabricated panel is 2.40 m.
  • Polytech® MS system includes ready-to-use corner elements for quick and precise installation. These elements are available in a standard size of 90 cm x 90 cm, but they can be produced in non-standard sizes as well.
  • The Polytech® MS production technology means that when a wall with a door or window opening is needed, the wall will be made complete with a lintel in the opening.
  • The overall construction costs can be reduced in a number ways, such as:
    • lower costs of transporting building materials to the site,
    • quick assembly/installation,
    • a small number of workers (2/3) needed.

During the construction process

  • Reduce the amount of construction waste.
  • nstall all the walls on a single storey of your building in a very short time (even one working day is enough if the storey area is not larger than about 200 square metres).
  • Install the walls of your building in virtually any weather conditions, as weather affects the construction process insignificantly.
  • Reduce the number of skilled workers needed at the site.
  • Help save the natural world, as the Polytech® Module System wall panels has no negative impact on the environment.
  • Enjoy the ease of finishing work on the panels.

What are the benefits for building users?

  • The prefabricated walls offer excellent thermal insulation properties.
  • The structural layer of the wall is permanently joined with the thermal insulation layer without the use of mechanical connectors. This has eliminated thermal bridges, which occur when thermal insulation materials are fixed using rawlplugs.
  • The heat transfer coefficient for an external wall with no openings does not exceed 0.15 (U ≤ 0,15 [ W/K∙m2]).
  • The Polytech mortar is a non-flammable, A-2 class material (according to EU 2000/147/EC).
  • Energy management (cooling and heating) is also made easier, which means considerable savings on energy bills.

Production lines

Polytech Module System prefabricated panels are produced on machines supplied by my COISOIMPER. The necessary materials include water, cement, additives and polystyrene granules (these can be recycled material) and moulds. A Kompatto mixer is used to mix the raw materials: polystyrene granules and additives (including the Tech additive). The mixture is then poured into moulds, depending on the requested size of the wall. The panels are left to season and to achieve their initial strength. The moulds are removed and the panels are transported to a storage area by means of overhead cranes, forklift trucks or other lifting equipment.

The production line must be well designed so that the necessary tools and equipment are used
for the intended production volume.

If you are interested in becoming a manufacturer of Polytech Module System prefabricated panels, regardless of the intended production volume, contact us! We will provide you with a set of guidelines for your factory and implementation support.

This is what you need to launch production:

  • a central production unit (machinery),
  • a storage space for raw materials (such as silos),
  • a storage space for finished products,
  • material-handling equipment, such as conveyor belts,
  • lifting equipment/cranes,
  • moulds.

Polytech® Therm InSide

Polytech® Therm InSide are panels for thermal insulation of external walls, designed for use inside
buildings. Polytech® Therm InSide panels are used when traditional thermal insulation methods
(insulation applied on the outer surface of walls) cannot be used because the surface must not be
interfered with (listed buildings are a good example).

Polytech® Therm InSide panels are easy to finish. They can be used for thermal insulation of both walls, floors and ceilings. The thickness of the thermal insulation layer made of Polytech® Therm InSide panels and the finishing method should depend on an assessment of the technical condition of the building.

Where to use Polytech® Therm InSide panels?

If the outer surface of the wall in your building must not be interfered with because it is a listed building or if thermal insulation work on the outside of a wall is difficult (for example because the wall is situated on a land boundary), the walls may have to be thermally insulated inside rather than outside the building.

Polytech® Therm InSide panels are the perfect choice whenever you need to thermally insulate a listed building inside or areas difficult to access, such as space near doors, windows, concealed window roller blind boxes or recessed spaces for heaters. They can also be used to make thermal insulation work easier inside staircases or cellars. They are a good solution where thermal insulation of the outer surface of walls is impossible. Polytech® Therm InSide are also recommended for use in building where the external walls are finished with natural stone, clinker tiles or timber cladding materials.

What are the benefits of Polytech® Therm InSide?

  • Polytech® Therm InSide panels offer excellent thermal insulation properties.
  • Therm InSide panels are non-flammable.
  • The alkaline nature of the product (pH11) minimises the risk of mould on the walls.
  • The heat transfer coefficient of the panels is very good (λ ≤ 0.06 [ W/K∙m]).
  • The panels are available in a wide range of thicknesses, ranging from 5 cm to 30 cm, depending on what is needed.
  • The panels are suitable as a thermal insulation material for listed buildings and where the external walls are finished with natural stone, clinker tiles or timber claddi
  • Polytech® Therm InSide are an eco-friendly material; they are made of construction waste.
  • Polytech® Therm InSide are easy to finish and install.

The technical properties of Polytech Therm InSide panels were confirmed in empirical
studies described in scientific journals, such as https://www.mdpi.com/1996-073/14/7/1844 and
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0950061818324991

CLC BLOCKS

FOAM CONCRETE blocks.
Lightweight and strength at the same time.

These make it possible to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature, without thermal energy loss, guaranteeing considerable cost savings in the use of environmental air conditioning systems.
These increase the breathability of the walls preventing the formation of mould and considerably lightening the structure of the building.

How to use CLC blocks.
Applications.

CLC blocks (or FOAM CONCRETE) are used as filling for outdoor walls and to build partition walls, as their breathability, lightweight and fire resistance make them ideal.  Also used for the construction of load-bearing walls in non-earthquake areas, with a thickness of no less than 25 cm and a minimum density of 800 – 1,000 Kg/m³ with smooth blocks or with holes for the installation of steel bars and concrete casting.
Lastly cellular concrete blocks are very commonly used for the fencing of containment walls or the perimeter of dwellings.

How to make CLC blocks.
Material and machinery for the production of CLC blocks.

In the production of CLC blocks, the raw materials (water, cement and sand) are mixed in a mixer, the foam produced by the TECHCELL HT foaming agent and by a foam generator is then added.
For a maximum daily production of 15 m³, the material is pumped into moulds in series and after at least 8 hours the produced panels can be cut into blocks of the required sizes.

For larger production, the material is poured into 1 m³ moulds and cut into blocks after at least 8 hours.
The drying stage is carried out without the addition of specific machinery such as furnaces or autoclaves.
The FOAM CONCRETE (CLC) is left in the moulds until the cutting phase.

Thanks to the type of blade of our Block cutter, the material can be cut wet or dry therefore it is not necessary to cut within a certain amount of time.

To increase the technical characteristics of CLC blocks, the auxiliary additives for CLC, DSP XL, FBR, HDR can be added to the mixture.

Advantages to the use and the production of CLC blocks.

Thermal insulation, lightweight, reduced cost of production, easy workability and versatility (ideal of construction and restructuring). With Coisoimper machines, the independent production of cellular concrete blocks required for the construction of civil and industrial buildings is even more advantageous.

CLC WALLS

What are CLC walls?
FOAM CONCRETE casted on site into formworks.

A quick, low cost, single-storey home construction system (Social House) without the need for a factory with production line as the walls are cast directly on site, with FOAM CONCRETE.
Casting is carried out directly on site in formwork where steel reinforcement is already installed, if necessary, and the electrical and hydraulic systems.

Where to use the technique CLC walls cast on site?

The on-site casting technique for walls and partitions can be used for the complete construction of low cost, single-storey homes (Social House) or for filling non load bearing walls where the load bearing structure (pillars and beams) are made with concrete or steel. In this application the thickness of the outer walls must not be less than 20 cm with minimum density of 1.000-1.200 kg/m³. While the partition walls can have a minimum thickness of 10 cm.
The on-site wall casting system is also suited for building fences and containment walls.
Walls made with FOAM CONCRETE maintain a comfortable indoor climate, without thermal energy loss, also allowing considerable savings on the costs of use in environmental conditioning systems.
It also increases the transpirability of the walls preventing the formation of mould and considerably lightening the structure of the building.

How to cast CLC walls on site?

It is particularly easy to cast walls on site using the COISOIMPER system.
After installing the formwork, the FOAM CONCRETE is mixed and pumped by a complete machine, KOMPATTO R16, directly into the formwork.
From the next day the formwork can be removed, and it can be of any type as long as it is resistant to hydrostatic pressure and watertight.
To make CLC walls all you need are water, cement, sand and foaming agent TECHCELL HT.

To increase the technical characteristics of CLC walls, the auxiliary additives for CLCDSP XL, FBR, HDR can be added to the mixture.

GeoTech

Geotech, the geotechnical filling system in FOAM CONCRETE.

Filling and stabilization of the subsoil with FOAM CONCRETE.

Filling and stabilization of the subsoil with FOAM CONCRETE.

Geotechnical filling with FOAM CONCRETE (CLC) is an alternative to digging and therefore to replacing unsuitable and unstable land (clay or marshy) with compacting land or other traditional materials suited to modifying the subsoil.

FOAM CONCRETE on top of unstable soil reduces the vertical dead load and increases the amortization capacity and stability with the addition of minimum weight.

Applications of FOAM CONCRETE in the geotechnical filling system.

FOAM CONCRETE is ideal in situations where it is necessary to make areas of clay soil or with stagnant water, stable.
Its fluid characteristic means it can fill any cavity that is irregular or hard to reach with heavy-duty machinery (such as lorries, wheel tractor-scrapers…).
It can also be used to fill derelict cavities (tunnels, cisterns, mines), to fill road ramps, to fill arches in historical centres and to insulate gas lines.

Advantages of FOAM CONCRETE in geotechnical filling.

The Geotech filling system has many advantages, the first being that of facilitating changes to the subsoil, making the land stable using less resources and energy than with traditional methods, without having negative effects on the environment and maintaining a high level of soil permeability.

FOAM CONCRETE also has a high logistic advantage as great amounts of material are not transported, nor is compacting roller machinery, used, rather it is self-produced directly on site with small machines.

Plus, the raw materials are simply water, concrete and TECHCELL foaming additive. Its fluidity allows fast application and is self-compacting and therefore does not need any special processing for levelling.
