Eco Stein Solutions
Eco Stein Ltd. can, through close and exclusive cooperation with our suppliers, offer a variety of solutions  depending on the customers requirement.

For low energy houses a simple one leaf constructions is most efficient. The walls will be constructed with 365 mm wide blocks. Only external render and internal plaster will have to be applied.
This construction will achieve a U - value of 0.23 W/m2K.

When requiering a construction that meets passive house standards, we can offer a range of cavity wall solutions that can easily and verfiably meet these demands, using simple designs as shown on this page.

When requiering maximum thermal mass for your new house, solution no.1 would be an appropriate design.

A design as shown in solution no.3 will achieve also passive house standard whilst being more cost efficient.

In order to maximise energy efficiency of your new house or  development still further, Eco Stein Ltd. has also introduced a new product (patent pending) that practically eliminates heat bridges at  windows sills. (See below for details)

Manufactured from extruded hard polystyrene, this form piece incorporates the base for your external and internal window sills as well as the mounting platform for the window.
Window sills (concrete, granite or marble) are simply glued onto the base.
Mounting stainless steel or aluminium window sills is also possible.

Ytong products, though only new to the Irish building industry, have a long history in continental Europe. For more than 70 years home builders have used these highly versatile blocks to construct their houses.
Autoclaved Aerated Concrete and its production process was already patented in 1924 by the Swedish Architect, A. Eriksson. Development of this product came about after the First World War, due to the need for a building product that could cheaply and easily be manufactured in large quantities with consistent properties, one of which had to be the high thermal insulation value that today is still unequalled in a solid block.

Over the years, the manufacturing process has been refined and advanced, making it possible to offer a wide variety of products. Every building element needed, such as walls, floors, lintels, ceilings and roof panels, in the construction of a house, can now be produced from AAC, making it possible to build a house complete from Ytong. And because the high insulation values are inherent to all Ytong products, the occurrence of heat bridges is kept to a minimum.

The light weight of Ytong makes it possible to produce large elements that are easy to handle, making the building process more cost effective by reducing building time. Since Ytong is an aerated concrete product, having a weight of only 1/5 to a 1/4 of that of ordinary concrete, it also uses only that amount of aggregates to produce it, reducing the pressure on our environment.
Energy consumption to produce Ytong is also only a fraction of that needed to produce other building materials, benefitting the environment still further by reducing CO2 emissions in the production process of this versatile building material.
