To achieve all the objectives indicated by the ID 26/06/15 "Minimum requirements", indicating the minimum thermal performance values of buildings, great attention must be paid to making the right technical choices and using The right materials to obtain ideal thermal insulation. The achievement of a good thermal insulation is essential to obtain a good level of comfort and a consequent economical saving for the management of the winter heating and the summer cooling.

Thermal insulation is a process that allows the insulation of the walls of a building from the outside, in a simple way, both on buildings of new construction and on existing buildings, without disturbing the residents and totally eliminating those points of the structure in which there are preferential ways for the dispersion of heat.

Saving on consumption is undoubtedly the safest and most environmentally friendly form of energy production. It does not contribute to the increase of the overheating of the atmosphere, it is economical, advantageous and always available. A thermal insulating coat reduces the consumption of primary energy – proportionally to the thickness of insulation – thus decreasing CO2 emissions. A low consumption house, or even an "energetically passive" house, with insulating thicknesses that allow high thermal insulation values, reduces heat dispersion to the lowest levels. With the coat, it becomes simple to meet the European energy criteria that will bring in a few years to realize only residential buildings in energetic equilibrium, that is that they do not consume more energy than they produce.

The comfort in inhabited environments depends mainly on the difference in temperature between the air and the surfaces of the walls. If the difference is too high, convective motions in the internal air may occur. The difference in temperature between the rooms and the walls that surround them should not exceed 3°c, to have a comfortable and healthy living environment. The coat prevents energy dispersions outwards, allowing the walls to become heat reserves for the best living comfort. Thermal insulation prevents the problems and defects linked to the presence of condensation moisture (i.e. the formation of moulds and dark spots). These problems can occur if the inner surface of the walls is too cold, even in certain places. Therefore all insulation should be placed on the outer surface of the walls. In fact, with this solution all the housing of the building is kept warm in a uniform way, without creating temperature gradients between the different zones.

The savings on heating costs, the elimination of thermal bridges, the comfort of living when outside is cold are the first things that come to mind when cladding is mentioned. But not everyone knows that the thermal insulating systems, applied on masonry walls, allow the improvement of the performance of a building in summer. The insulating layer located outside the building filters out the energy and reduces its passage through the wall preventing it from overheating excessively, and quickly. The effect is to have fresh interior walls during the day and thus be able to use the cool of the night to rest satisfactorily. The improvement of the periodic transmittance of the walls, which is obtained with the application of a coat on the external masonry, allows the improvement of both the displacement of the heat wave, and to weaken its intensity. Today, thanks to the high standards of quality of life, we expect from a building that the internal climate is always suitable for our needs and our wellbeing. The lifestyle of our industrialised society leads us to spend more than 90% of our time in air-conditioned environments, residences, workplaces, activities and/or recreation. To guarantee the comfort in every type of building is essential to start from a correct design, defining the requirements to be imposed on the envelope and choosing the design parameters that add value to the living. Defined these requirements, we proceed to identify the technological solutions best suited to guarantee them, making them compatible with the existing architectural and economic constraints.

Malvin has worked in this regard through the experimentation and the creation of innovative and specific constructive systems for the resolution of these problems. We offer a new range of products, born from studies and experimentation in our research and development laboratories and from direct experience in the yard, for the creation of thermal insulating coats not only of high quality and durability but also of easy and fast Application. For the attainment of the best living comfort and the respect of the values imposed by the regulations regulating the thermal insulation ID 26/06/15 "Minimum requirements" is therefore the "Malvin construction system", which provides a series of solutions that are Innovative, safe and of durable construction.
