KALDO, the thermo-panel to create suspended slabs or ceilings<\/span><\/h2><\/div><\/header>
<\/p>\n

KALDO<\/strong>\u00a0is a thermo-panel, made of EPS (expanded polystyrene) elements, to create\u00a0suspended slabs or ceilings<\/strong>\u00a0with\u00a0monodirectional beams<\/strong>\u00a0and with a\u00a0modulable thermal insulation<\/strong>. When compared to traditional technologies, KALDO offers a more lightweight materiel with higher thermal insulation properties.<\/p>\n

Each panel is designed and produced for each project, by customizing both the dimensions of the beam and the thickness of the insulation with no further work on the job site.<\/p>\n

Due to its lightweight material it is easy to handle<\/strong>\u00a0on site and, thanks to the metal supports, they are\u00a0self-supporting<\/strong>\u00a0and allow for workers to walk on top: they only need supporting props underneath at a required spacing.<\/p>\n

KALDO panels include spacers to obtain the correct\u00a0concrete cover<\/strong>\u00a0on the beams as well as\u00a0metal supports<\/strong>\u00a0on the bottom for the installation of a finishing such as drywall or similar. Alternatively, normal plaster finishing suitable for EPS, can be used.<\/p>\n

Energy certificates are easily obtained with KALDO:\u00a0Class A, NZEB and Passive House<\/strong>. It is recommended to combine the use of these insulated panels for elevated slabs with CLIMABLOCK and other high-performance systems.<\/p>\n

Single KALDO elements, which are not preassembled at the factory, can be installed over a single span: they are easier to handle, but lack in the self-supporting feature.<\/p>\n

BIDIRECTIONAL slabs can also be created with single KALDO-BIDIRECTIONAL<\/strong> elements.<\/p>\n
