Brussels: In the European Union, 40 percent of CO2 emissions originate through the use of energy in buildings. As the conservation of energy has become a top priority, Honeywell’s Enovate blowing agent for insulation foam offers a powerful solution and will be presented at this year’s UTECH show in Maastricht, the Netherlands, March 28 - 30 (Stand 1760).
The European Union’s Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and the Energy Services Directive have significantly raised the demands on insulation performance. Honeywell’s answer to these demands is Enovate blowing agent, used for high performance polyurethane (PUR/PIR) foam insulation applications.
Enovate offers a variety of product benefits including superior insulation, long term performance, meets stringent fire tests, non-ozone-depleting, non-flammable, safety in use. These benefits translate into economic advantages for the end-user and ecological benefits for society. Reduced energy consumption due to better insulated buildings helps reduce overall cost and environmental impact.
Good fire performance of insulating material is a key safety measure and it enables building owners to save on building insurance cost. Products based on Enovate meet the fire performance standards set by the UK’s Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) which are considered to be the most stringent fire standards across Europe.
