| Description of the area of application: | The U*psi insulation joist is a load-bearing, thermal-bridge-reducing element used to span the insulation layer on walls and roofs. It is suitable for use in front of load-bearing walls made of timber, masonry, or concrete—both in new constructions and energy-efficient renovations. Type F, with fixed rails, is optimized for flush and plumb surfaces, while Type S, with its adjustable rail, enables precise façade alignment even on uneven existing walls. The elements create installation-friendly cavities for insulation and can also serve as an adjustable substructure for interior fit-outs. | ||
| Product description of manufacturer: | U*psi F / S is a ladder-shaped insulation post element made of genuine wood rungs and rails, cross-laminated in the style of cross-laminated timber (CLT)—but with wide spacing between the individual lamellae. The insulation layer is only penetrated at discrete points, making it a solution with minimal thermal bridging. Type F, with fixed rails, is suitable for even substrates, while Type S, featuring an adjustable alignment rail, can also be used on uneven existing walls. | ||

| natureplus product test: |
The natureplus product test is considered the most comprehensive sustainability test for building materials in Europe:
✓ Verification of all information at the manufacturing plant
✓ Laboratory analysis and expert reports by accredited partners ✓ Regular repeat tests | ||
| healthy living: |
Building products with the natureplus label do not harm the environment or human health with pollutants and, in particular, ensure healthy indoor living spaces.
✓ AgBB scheme Germany (laboratory analysis of emissions according to EN 16516)
✓ EU taxonomy ✓ QNG-compliant * *Exception: cellulose products containing boron do not currently comply with QNG. | ||
| climate protection: |
The manufacture of building products is environmentally friendly and energy efficient, thus contributing to climate protection and CO2 avoidance, and fulfilling social responsibility. The products must be fit for use and recyclable.
✓ CO2 footprint (CFP according to EN 14067) is below the average for comparable products.
✓ Primary energy requirement is below average for comparable products. ✓ Above-average use of renewable energies in production. | ||
| ressource conservation: |
Only construction products made from at least 85% renewable or abundant mineral raw materials or secondary raw materials are eligible. The raw materials must come from sustainable sources.
✓ Social requirements are checked at the production sites.
✓ Investigation of upstream suppliers in the supply chain. ✓ Reuse and recycling through material quality and dismantling instructions. | ||
