Parish assistant's house renovation Bremgarten

The late Gothic building probably served as a chaplaincy for the Bullingerpfründe and became a parish assistant's house after the recatholisation in 1531. The building, which is now a listed building, has been renovated several times over the centuries – most recently in 1990. Following the conversion and energy-efficient renovation in 2016, the historic building continues to be used for residential purposes. A studio was created on the ground floor, which could also be used as a one-room flat with a small kitchen and bathroom. A 2.5-room flat was created on the first floor and a 4.5-room maisonette flat on the second floor. In addition, a basement extension with a new archive for the parish was built.

For the energy-efficient renovation, Fixit 222 Aerogel high-performance insulating plaster was applied to the façade in a layer thickness of 7–8 cm using a spraying method. Fixit 203 finishing plaster with hydraulic lime was applied as the finishing coat and then painted twice with Fixit 784 OF mineral sol-silicate paint. The exterior wall adjacent to the stable next to the building was insulated with 140 mm thick COMPACT PRO rock wool insulation boards.

Aapartment building ‘Hochstrasse’ renovation Zurich

In 1926, Otto Streicher designed and built the ABZ cooperative apartment buildings on Hochstrasse in Zurich Fluntern. The apartment buildings were last comprehensively renovated in the mid-1970s, so energy-efficient renovation was necessary. The aim of the new measures was to preserve the external appearance and internal spatial structure of the buildings. The high-performance insulating plaster Fixit 222 Aerogel was used to insulate the exterior façade and preserve the window frames and building proportions.

Aapartment building ‘Letten 4’ interior insulation Zurich

The entire ‘Letten 4’ site in Zurich, with its apartment buildings, is a listed building. For this reason, energy-efficient renovation was carried out on the interior walls using Fixit 222 Aerogel high-performance insulating plaster. To do this, the existing base and finishing plaster was removed and replaced with Fixit 222 Aerogel high-performance insulating plaster. Fixit 770 white lime interior plaster was used as the finishing plaster.

Apartment building ‘Cité Tony Garnier’ interior insulation Lyon (France)

The 23 apartment buildings of the Cité Tony Garnier are located in Lyon, and each building is decorated with an individual mural featuring artistic representations. Since 2016, the entire building complex has been gradually renovated to improve its energy efficiency and bring it into line with current environmental and energy standards. In order to preserve the cultural heritage, the interior insulation was carried out using Fixit 222 Aerogel. The painted walls were restored and in some cases completely renewed, creating a unique open-air museum.

Residential home ‘Wyssestei’ internal insulation Solothurn

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.

Apartment building ‘Hotel Meyerhof’ renovation Hospental

The former Hotel Meyerhof was converted into an apartment building in 2021 after standing empty for over 30 years. The energy-efficient renovation was carried out using Fixit 222 Aerogel high-performance insulating plaster with a layer thickness of 6–8 cm. To do this, the existing plaster was removed down to the quarry stone masonry and the insulating plaster was sprayed on by machine. The large, white façade surfaces were coated twice with Fixit 777 fine plaster with a grain size of 0.5 mm. The small grey areas were created using a mixture of Fixit 205 base plaster and Fixit 208 base mixture (homemade Worms plaster). Finally, the exterior façade was painted twice with mineral paint.

Detached house renovation Belp

The idyllic detached house in Belp with its small tower extension was to be renovated to improve its energy efficiency. To this end, the entire plaster structure was stripped down to the brickwork and rebuilt with Fixit 222 Aerogel high-performance insulating plaster in a layer thickness of 4 cm.

In the basement, the walls adjacent to the ground were also renovated from the inside with Fixit 210 Hydroment dehumidifying plaster. The ageing façade was completely covered with Fixit 462 renovation plaster, followed by a top coat of Fixit 203 (hydraulic lime).

Apartment building ‘Pierre de Coubertin’ renovation Boulogne-Billancourt Paris (France)

The large, multi-storey apartment building in Boulogne-Billancourt (near Paris) is made of brick masonry and was renovated to improve its energy efficiency using Fixit 222 aerogel high-performance insulating plaster.

Detached house ‘Pavillon Thouvenel’ Renovation Paris (France)

The 19th-century building makes optimal use of the existing space on a relatively small footprint over three floors. The Pavillon Thouvenel was renovated to improve its energy efficiency using Fixit 222 aerogel high-performance insulating plaster. The façade now shines in new splendour, while energy consumption has been reduced.

Historic building ‘Mühlestock’ renovation Madiswil

The historic Mühlestock building in Madiswil is a listed building, which meant that external insulation was not an option in this case. In order to renovate the building in line with conservation requirements and improve its energy efficiency, Fixit 222 Aerogel high-performance insulating plaster was used. This allowed the interior walls to be visually preserved with their original character and historically curved, slightly sloping walls. The insulating plaster was applied to the quarry stone masonry of the interior walls with a layer thickness of 3–8 cm.
