Cabot aerogel Collaboration Results in Innovative Building Material
Aerogel is featured in Sto AG Deutschland's new internal building insulation system.

The super slim system, called StoTherm In Aevero, comprises a composite board combining Cabot's aerogel particles for superior energy-savings performance with Sto's binder and composite technology, resulting in an insulation board that offers greater energy efficiency than traditional materials. Cabot's aerogel enables an ultra-low thermal conductivity of 0.016 W/mK (R9).

Sto's innovative binder technology and the system design afford permeability and moisture management, thereby managing humidity according to building requirements. The thin profile of the product allows improved insulation especially when interior space is at a premium.

"The growing importance of conserving energy, both from an environmental and cost perspective, requires us to develop products with superior thermal performance like Cabot aerogel," said Fred von Gottberg, Cabot vice president, New Business Segment. "The collaboration with Sto is another example of Cabot's dedication to creating technical partnerships that result in innovative products containing Cabot's aerogel products that significantly exceed the performance of traditional insulation materials."
