ISOTEX The most complete and economic construction system

Isotex construction system consists of formwork blocks and slabs made of mineralised wood and cement.

One of its main benefits is that with just one quick and easy laying step, Isotex replaces the beam and pillar structure (the blocks are filled with concrete and have additional vertical and horizontal reinforcements), curtain walling and external cladding as the insulation is already inserted inside the formwork block. This halves the construction time of the structure and, consequently, the costs, reducing the need for labour (no specialised workers needed).

The special blocks provide a perfectly homogenous structure in terms of earthquake resistance, thermal, and acoustic proofing (eliminating thermal and acoustic bridges), fire resistance, and respect for environmental sustainability and circular economy.

All these technical features are certified by accredited and highly qualified Universities and Laboratories, ensuring full compliance with all applicable regulations.
