Thermal Insulation

World Record in Thermal Insulation


​Wood naturally insulates, stores and naturally buffers perfectly, so that every wooden house can become an oasis of well-being if the wood is unadulterated. With its patented construction, Holz100 once again insulates twice as well as full or glued wood and thus holds the world record in thermal insulation. This makes self-sufficient living and passive houses without insulation and complicated building services possible.

Wood is by nature a very good insulating material. With its interior, ultra-thin layers of air, the insulation value of Holz100-Thermo is twice as good. Holz100 thermal walls can be installed without additional insulation. With Holz100-Thermo, a thermal conductivity coefficient of λ = 0.079W / mK was measured, which is the world record among all load-bearing building materials.
​

Houses made of wood100 are 100% warm in winter and cool in summer due to their large storage mass without additional insulation. In times of constantly rising energy prices, this is essential - because the residents save more money every month due to the saving of heating costs.

In Comparison


To achieve a U-value of 0.2 - the value that applies to low-energy houses, you need:
  • 36.4 cm Holz100 Thermo Wall
  • 60-70 cm solid wood
  • 40-70 cm brick
  • 920 cm concrete
​
No matter whether the wooden elements are still clad with clay, tiles, wood, plasterboard or mortar plaster or whether the inhabitants leave the wood walls "pure" - wood provides an indescribable indoor climate, which can not be achieved by any other building material. ​


"Compared with all the structural building methods, Holz100 is the building material with the very best natural thermal insulation."
​

​In addition to the many health and well-being benefits from Holz100, we can demonstrate hard facts relating to insulation and energy efficiency.

The Holz100 solid wood home has the world record for heat insulation in structural materials and therefore minimal operating costs. Energy price increases are less of a worry to Holz100 homeowners. Recent tests of 3 wall systems with the same R-value showed the supremacy of Holz100.


​Cooling Time


​With the inside temperature set to 21C and the outside at -10C the heat was turned off inside the building and the researchers waited to see how long it took for the inside to fall to 0C. The ‘passive’ house standard stick-frame wall home took 41 hours. The home with brick wall and insulation took 259 hours and the 
Holz100 home took 777 hours.
Picture

​​The conclusion is that an average 
Holz100 home needs 1/3 of the heating system compared to a traditional framed home with the same R value. There are homes built by Holz100 that have no heating system at all. Rather they are passive solar, the heat emanating from the people in the home, the appliances in the home and the thermal mass of the wood. It’s like having air-conditioning and heating systems with zero energy consumption. In the summer the home stays cool and in the winter it stays warm.
