EIFS (Exterior Insulation Finishing System)

For ecologic as well as economic reasons it makes sense to thermally insulate buildings. Most effective is exterior insulation, which is used in new buildings but also during renovation of existing buildings. Insulation boards are normally made of expanded polystyrene (EPS), glass wool or mineral wool.

Tylose® MC improves the workability and increases both adhesion and embedding of the net. In addition to the cement binder, emulsion powders must be added to ensure sufficient adhesion to the insulation board.

Building materials

» More information

Tylose® is an essential component in many building materials. It is mainly responsible for water retention, consistency and adhesion. The homogeneity, stability and workability of mortars are improved by the use of Tylose®. Using Tylose® enables the manufacturing of modern and efficient construction materials, such as machine plasters and thin bed adhesives.
