Traditerm^® Panel Corcho

Technical Caracteristics

Natural cork

Advantages and Uses

• Traditerm Nature external thermal insulation system (EWI/ETICS).
• 100% natural insulation.
• Thermal insulation.
• Acoustic insulation.
• Highly breathable.
• Light and workable material.
• Easy to cut.
• Range of thicknesses that provide different levels of insulation.

Application Procedure

• The panels are fixed to the substrate with Traditerm mortar adhesive, previously applied with a notched trowel. 
• The panels are installed in an offset position (25 cm minimum interlocking between the vertical joints of the panels).
• In the event of not being able to smooth unevenness between panels by sanding, it is essential to control the surface flatness when applying the finishing coat. 
• Position fixings in the panels, 8 units per m2. The upper part of the fixing should be inserted some mm inside the panel. Next use Traditerm mortar to level the surface of the insulation panel.
• Finally apply finishing coat to the Traditerm panels, that have been reinforced with Traditerm meshing.

Recommendations

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight while applying and finishing with Traditerm mortar.
• To fix the panels, spread Traditerm mortar over the surface of the panel and comb with a notched trowel, removing the excess mortar from the joints (of approx 2 cm) to avoid any adhesive protruding between the panels when pressed to prevent thermal bridging.
• When installing the panels to the substrate, carefully control the flatness.
• Reinforce all the corners of the panel with reinforcement profiles from the Traditerm System (EWI/ETICS).
• In areas exposed to impact, strengthen the panels with a double layer of Traditerm mesh.
• Do not align panel joints on window recesses and corners of openings to prevent the appearance of cracking.
• Strengthen these joints with mesh strips of 20 x 40 cm placed diagonally and fixed with Traditerm mortar.

Notas

The information and instructions in this datasheet are based on our current tests and technical knowledge. They are intended as general guidance and do not constitute a binding commitment by PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC. It is the sole responsibility of the user to verify, prior to use, that the product is suitable for the intended application and to ensure that it is applied correctly and in accordance with applicable regulations and good industry practice.

PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC cannot control how its products are applied on site throughout the entire project and therefore cannot accept responsibility for their application by contractors or other parties involved in the execution of the work. Support visits to the jobsite by our technical staff do not change that. Our responsibility is limited exclusively to defects that can be directly attributed to the supplied products, whether used individually or as part of a system, caused by manufacturing defects.

It is the responsibility of the project designer, site manager, contractor, or other relevant professionals to ensure that the selected products are appropriate for the specific project, taking into account their properties, the substrate, site conditions, and any existing issues.

In the event of a claim, the original packaging must be provided to ensure proper product traceability.

Any performance values stated for PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC products or construction solutions, whether in UNE standards or other applicable standards, are based solely on the specific test conditions defined in those standards (such as substrate type, temperature, and humidity). These values may not apply to situations where products are tested or used under different conditions.
