Aerogel insulation for indoors and outdoors
Aerogel, also known as nanogel, is a groundbreaking innovation in thermal insulation. Nanogel offers efficient thermal insulation with minimal space requirements, excellent sound insulation and flexibility, making it an ideal solution for the interior insulation of your home.
Aerogel Insulation – Maximum Insulation Performance with Minimal Thickness
Aerogel is one of the highest-performing insulation materials in the world. Excellent insulation values can be achieved with very thin material thicknesses – ideal for renovations, interiors, and anywhere where space is limited. Whether it's an old building, a listed building, a cold exterior wall, or a thermal bridge: aerogel offers an efficient, slim, and safe solution. To the store
What is aerogel?
Aerogel is a mineral-based, high-performance insulation material with an extremely fine structure, consisting largely of air. Air is the best natural thermal insulator – and that's precisely what makes aerogel so effective.- Very low thermal conductivity (approx. 0.015–0.020 W/mK)
- Vapor-permeable
- Non-combustible (A2)
- Very durable and dimensionally stable
- No health concerns
Why Aerogel Instead of Conventional Insulation?
Classic insulation materials require a lot of material thickness to achieve good insulation values. Aerogel achieves the same performance – with significantly less thickness.| Criterion | Aerogel | Conventional insulation |
|---|---|---|
| Insulation performance | Very high | Medium |
| Material thickness | Very low | Significantly thicker |
| Risk of mold | Low if installed correctly | Often critical with internal insulation |
| Fire protection | A2 – non-combustible | Dependent on the material |
Typical Applications of Aerogel
Our aerogel insulation mats are particularly suitable for:- Interior wall insulation where space is limited
- Window and door reveals
- Thermal bridges and critical details
- Sloping roofs and ceilings
- Old building renovation and historic preservation
- Renovation of cold and damp walls
Which Thickness Makes Sense?
The thickness you need depends on the component and the desired insulation target. In practice, the following guidelines have become established:- 5 mm: Detail areas, reveals, connections
- 10 mm: Interior insulation of problematic wall surfaces
- 20 mm: Higher insulation performance with a still low overall height
