Politerm: a successful transfer of theory to practical
 Superlight inert made of EPS vergin
beads preadditivated with EIA (Edilteco
Insulating Additive)
 Suitable for the preparation of
lightweight – thermal insulating mortars
 To be mixed with cement and water,
NO SAND REQUIRED
 Preadditivated at the factory =
constancy of use and final results

POLITERM: SUMMARY OF MAIN ADVANTAGES
 Using a higher performance material means obtain savings in
terms of:
 Material consumption
 Weight
 Space (reduced thickness)
 Time
 Furthermore, due to its lightness, it contributes to
considerably reduce the earthquake effect at the buildings
