Lode Keraterm 44 building block 440x245x238mm

KERATERM 44 building blocks are used for external wall construction. The 44 cm thick KERATERM external wall with a thermal insulation coefficient (U≤293 W/m²K) does not require additional insulation. Vertical joints are formed by placing the blocks without mortar. KERATERM 44 has a compressive strength of 12.5 N/mm², making it suitable not only for low-rise construction but also for multi-story buildings. KERATERM 44s (corner block) and KERATERM 44/2 (half block) are additional elements used for forming house corners. KERATERM 44/2 is also used for door and window reveals, as well as for finishing rows where necessary.

Wall thickness = 44 cm; Compressive strength = 12.5 N/mm²; Sound insulation = 47 dB; Water absorption ? 25%; Frost resistance cycles = 50. Keraterm 44 Bulk density = 0.7 g/cm3, Thermal conductivity = 0.129 W/mK. Keraterm 44s Bulk density = 0.75 g/cm3, Thermal conductivity Fr. 0.23 W/mK, Aks. 0.15 W/mK. Keraterm 44/2 Bulk density = 0.9 g/cm3, Thermal conductivity = 0.161 W/mK.

Advantages of KERATERM blocks: Durability - Compressive strength of 12 Mpa allows the material to be used in the construction of multi-story residential buildings. Sound insulation - The bee-like structure of the blocks effectively absorbs sound propagation. Therefore, KERATERM is popular not only in residential buildings but also in public buildings (for example, if a building is planned to have both a bowling alley and a cinema). Thermal conductivity - Houses made of KERATERM blocks retain heat. Thanks to the material structure, temperature fluctuations in the rooms are minimal. This allows for energy savings and reduced operating costs. Fire resistance - Like other ceramic products, KERATERM is fire-resistant and can withstand very high temperatures without visible deformation. Air permeability - Walls made of KERATERM blocks breathe and remain dry. The capillarity of ceramics ensures the transport of moisture from the inside to the outside of the room in the direction of heat and moisture gradient. Naturalness - KERATERM is 100% natural material. It is produced using Latvian clay and only natural additives (water, sawdust). Economy - Vertical jointing allows for savings on mortar, as it is not required in vertical joints.
