Information

At the Wyssenstei residential home, residents spend most of their day in their living quarters, which means that the humidity in these rooms is generally high. The rooms were originally fitted with a vapour-proof system, which led to mould forming behind chests of drawers, shelves and cupboards. The application of Fixit 222 aerogel high-performance insulating plaster in a layer thickness of 3 cm created a vapour-permeable indoor climate. The system structure absorbs the humidity and releases it back into the room air in controlled doses. This prevents mould from forming.

The exterior façade was last renovated at the end of the 1980s.

In order to preserve the original appearance of the exterior façade, Fixit 222 aerogel high-performance insulating plaster was used.
