The thermal insulation technology consists in fixing thermal insulation made of foamed polystyrene boards to the substrate and preparation of a reinforced layer, a render coating and, optionally, a paint coating on the insulation. ATLAS can be used only as an adhered system or as an adhered system with additional mechanical fixing. The system can be applied on new or existing external surfaces of vertical building wall (plastered or not) made of masonry or adhered materials, such as bricks and blocks (ceramic, lime-sand, stone, cellular concrete), or of concrete (poured at the construction site or in the form of prefabricated elements). It can also be fixed on surfaces of horizontal or tilted structural elements provided that they are not directly exposed to precipitation.
