A home should provide its residents with comfort, calm, and a good quality of life. As thermal insulation experts, when we consider a comfortable home, we think of indoor climate.
The core components of a happy, healthy home are a pleasant indoor climate, favourable inside temperature, and optimal air humidity. With Baumit StarSystem Mineral, a thermal insulation system suitable for all types of buildings, these factors have never been easier for homeowners to achieve.
Baumit StarSystem Mineral can be applied to all substrates. In fact, it is suitable for old and new buildings as well as for single and multiple family homes, as well as commercial construction.
The external insulation board, Mineral Wool EWI Slab, contains no combustible components as it is made of mineral wool fibres, which are bonded to a board with resins.
As thermal insulation, the system stands out due to its excellent sound and fireproofing properties, as well as being highly vapour permeable and thus greatly improving the indoor climate.

Baumit StarSystem Mineral is a proven mineral wool insulation system suitable for all building classes. Using mineral wool in thermal insulation boards allows for a layer to be covered with a mineral basecoat made from a levelling layer, basecoat, and fibreglass mesh.
A weather-resistant topcoat is applied over this. Baumit StarSystem Mineral is a British Board of Agrément (BBA) approved system.
Thermal insulation board, along with its associated energy savings, is making a significant contribution to climate protection. When used correctly, far more CO2 and other greenhouse gases are saved than have been generated by the production of insulation materials.
