Vicenza Stone energy efficiency

Not everyone knows that stone provides excellent performance in terms of thermal inertia, hygrometric comfort and sound insulation

The #pietradivicenza has always been used in the construction of buildings or designed for external cladding thanks to its characteristics of ductility, expressive potential and resistance. The stone itself tends to harden over time and also boasts peculiar characteristics in terms of energy efficiency.

1. Thermal inertia

The stone has a natural thermal inertia, enhanced in the hypothesis of a ventilated wall: in this case, the construction increases the degree of energy performance and the living comfort. Thanks to a natural ventilation of fresh air, the ventilated stone wall does not dissipate heat during the winter months and allows a good level of refrigeration during the summer, protecting from sunlight and external heat.

2. Hygrometric comfort

The ventilated stone wall isolates the building from water and humidity and facilitates the coming out of internal steam, guaranteeing excellent hygrometric comfort.

3. Acoustic insulation

This type of material guarantees a high degree of well-being also in terms of acoustic insulation.
