Looking for a modern walling system that is simple, fast, strong and efficient? Why not look at the Porotherm; the clay block walling system with the pedigree of numerous completed commercial and domestic projects. Porotherm is the walling system of choice throughout Europe and a highly efficient alternative to other building materials such as timber, concrete and light steel frame.
The Porotherm walling system utilises a series of specially designed and engineered blocks, ancillaries and tools to allow trade and construction professionals the ability to create clean, homogenous walls, fast. Porotherm can be used in a wide range of applications such as inner and outer leaf wall construction, monolithic walls, infill panels and load and non load bearing walls.
The strength of a Porotherm wall comes from the use of advanced adhesive technology. The joint mix supplied with the walling system is applied to all horizontal block surfaces to a target thickness of 1mm. The system requires no vertical jointing instead relying on the inbuilt interlocking feature for stability. By repeating this simple laying process overall wall construction times are greatly reduced along with associated material usage and labour cost.
Porotherm offers customers outstanding thermal and acoustic efficiency coupled with environmentally friendly and sustainable living. Porotherm walls do not burn or emit harmful smoke when burnt offering reassuring safety benefits.
The walling system lends itself to numerous external and internal finishes. Typically a plasterboard and plaster finish is used internally whilst externally a rendered finish is preferred; although facing bricks or a modern cladding system can also be used.
All Porotherm walling blocks and components are available to order on-line from a good material supplier offering direct to sight delivery. Expert help and training is also available upon request. The Porotherm walling system provides the optimum construction solution where fast, dry, efficient construction is required.
