External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) - Global Industry Market Analysis Report 2020-2031

External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) is a thermal insulation solution for building exterior walls. It aims to improve the energy efficiency of buildings, reduce heat transfer, thereby reducing building energy consumption and enhancing indoor comfort.

In terms of structural composition, ETICS mainly consists of an insulation layer, a protective layer, and a decorative layer. The insulation layer is the core part. Common insulation materials include expanded polystyrene (EPS) boards, extruded polystyrene (XPS) boards, rock wool boards, etc. These materials have the characteristic of low thermal conductivity and can effectively prevent heat conduction. For example, EPS boards are lightweight, have good thermal insulation performance, and are relatively low in price, so they are widely used; XPS boards have higher compressive strength and lower water absorption, and their thermal insulation effect is more excellent; rock wool boards are inorganic insulation materials with excellent fire - resistance performance. The protective layer is located on the outside of the insulation layer and is usually composed of a rendering mortar and an alkali - resistant glass fiber mesh. The rendering mortar can enhance the impact resistance and waterproofness of the system, and the alkali - resistant glass fiber mesh plays a role in strengthening the strength of the protective layer and preventing cracking. The decorative layer gives the building exterior wall an aesthetic appearance. Common decorative layer materials include coatings, facing bricks, etc. Coating finishes are convenient for construction and have rich colors; facing brick finishes have high durability and decorative properties.

The working principle of ETICS is based on the principle of heat conduction. Heat always transfers from a high - temperature area to a low - temperature area. In buildings, the indoor temperature is higher than the outdoor temperature in winter, and heat will be dissipated from the indoor to the outdoor through the exterior wall; in summer, the outdoor temperature is higher than the indoor temperature, and heat will enter the indoor. ETICS sets an insulation layer on the outside of the building exterior wall. By using the low thermal conductivity of the insulation material, the thermal resistance of heat transfer is increased, thereby reducing heat transfer. The protective layer protects the insulation layer from the erosion of the external environment, such as wind, rain, and ultraviolet rays, ensuring the long - term effectiveness of the insulation layer. The decorative layer, while beautifying the building appearance, also plays a certain protective role for the protective layer.

External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems have many advantages. In terms of energy conservation, ETICS can significantly reduce the energy consumption of buildings, reduce the dependence on heating and cooling equipment, and reduce energy consumption costs. Research shows that the energy consumption of buildings using ETICS can be reduced by 30% - 50% compared with those without it. In terms of improving indoor comfort, it can effectively reduce the fluctuation of indoor temperature, maintain the stability of indoor temperature, and create a more comfortable indoor environment for residents. At the same time, ETICS can also improve the waterproof performance of buildings and reduce the risk of exterior wall leakage. In addition, since the insulation layer is located on the outside of the exterior wall, it does not occupy indoor space, increasing the indoor usable area.

In terms of application scenarios, ETICS is widely used in various new buildings, whether residential buildings or commercial buildings. In residential buildings, it can provide residents with a more energy - efficient and comfortable living environment; in commercial buildings, it can reduce operating costs and improve economic benefits. For the energy - saving renovation of existing buildings, ETICS is also one of the important means. By installing ETICS on the exterior wall, the thermal insulation performance of existing buildings can be effectively improved without changing the building structure, achieving the energy - saving target.

From the perspective of market trends, with the increasing global attention to energy conservation, emission reduction, and building sustainable development, the market demand for External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) continues to grow. On the one hand, researchers are committed to developing insulation materials and system components with more excellent performance to improve the thermal insulation performance, fire - resistance performance, and durability of ETICS. For example, researching new nano - insulation materials and exploring technical ways to improve the fire - resistance performance of insulation materials. On the other hand, to meet the needs of different building types and customers, personalized ETICS solutions are constantly being introduced. For example, for the fire - resistance requirements of high - rise buildings, developing ETICS with a higher fire - resistance rating; for different building styles, designing diversified decorative layer solutions. In addition, market competition is also becoming increasingly fierce. Many ETICS suppliers are vying for market share by means of technological innovation, improving product quality, optimizing construction technology, and reducing costs. At the same time, with the enhancement of environmental awareness, the production and construction processes of ETICS also pay more attention to environmental protection, using environmentally friendly materials and green construction processes to reduce the impact on the environment.
