The 16th century works of Mimar Sinan, the genius of Ottoman architecture, are classified among the unique historical buildings in the world for their grandeur and beauty. Although today's advanced building technologies can construct more magnificent buildings, the calculation techniques used by Sinan the Architect remain a mystery to this day. The finely calculated technological details in his works such as the Selimiye Mosque are quite intriguing. According to some claims, Mimar Sinan used a secret "fifth operation" beyond the four operations that are the basis of mathematics in order to achieve the impossible for his time. Although this claim has not been verified, the perfection of Sinan's works is an undisputed fact.
With this example, we can see that it is possible to go beyond the stereotypes of the period. Rather than making comparisons with the genius of Mimar Sinan, it would be correct to think that our history should guide us to produce works beyond the established patterns of the age. As Thermolock, we would like to share the realities of why and how it is possible to get results beyond the known patterns in insulation.
Thermolock insulation systems meet all the standard data provided by classical insulation materials, but thanks to their innovative formulas, they contain more than one additional feature. In its formulas composed of minerals, the product offers consumers some innovative parameters outside the general structure. Thermolock users can find heat, water, sound and fire insulation in the same package, and can produce solutions to all these insulation problems with a single application. In fact, although it is rare to provide all four insulations with a single product, what we offer to our customers is not limited to this.
Due to today's sales strategies, there is a perception that thermal insulation is only used for heating. However, contrary to popular belief, energy is also consumed for cooling in houses. Saving energy is important in every aspect. Thermolock provides 98% or more protection from harmful rays such as UV and radioactive thanks to the special elements in its minerals. This level of protection makes the life of the product equivalent to the life of the building. It also insulates sun-exposed areas such as concrete surfaces and terraces by completely blocking heat transfer through radiation.
Thermolock provides water, fire, heat and sound insulation with a single application, while achieving high energy savings and climatic comfort. Our products do not contain joints or dowel places that cause heat loss in the application technique. In this way, a monolithic insulation that grasps the building all around without joints is obtained, completely eliminating heat losses and deformation risks that may occur from joints.
Another important aspect is that Thermolock is breathable. It prevents the formation of moisture and condensation in homes and does not allow the formation of mold and bacteria. The products allow the evacuation of moisture and vapor and allow diffusion with its water-repellent structure. This prevents damp concrete from causing corrosion and thus putting the earthquake safety of the building at risk.
Safety against fire is one of the most important expectations from an insulation product. Thermolock offers A1 class non-flammability and ensures fire safety by preventing the spread of fire. The product has quality standards recognized by international authorities and has reached the highest level of world standards, F240, as a result of tests carried out in Efectis laboratories.
Thermolock aims to minimize all risks by combining four insulations in a single product. In the light of all these data, Thermolock is designed to provide more than four processes in insulation, i.e. the FIFTH process to ensure optimum insulation. Although the parameters of our products cannot be fully met by traditional efficiency calculation programs and methods, we are always proud of the satisfaction received from the field. With the Thermolock brand, we continue to expand, grow and penetrate different markets worldwide.
The awareness that success and innovation come from breaking traditional molds strengthens our belief in building the products of the future and drives us, the Thermolock family, to continually do better.
