Munich/Sassoferrato, 17 January 2025 – At the international construction fair BAU in Munich, Diasen received a special mention for the ultra-light, cork-based thermal floor Diathonite Thermostep.047, rewarded for its ability to reduce thickness and material consumption while guaranteeing high thermal and acoustic insulation performance.

“We are proud of this recognition, which fits perfectly with current construction trends in Germany that reward the renovation of existing buildings rather than land consumption and the construction of new ones,” said Diego Mingarelli, Chief Executive Officer of Diasen. “Beyond the functional aspects, the mention also highlighted the aesthetic component of the sanded thermal floor, which evokes a vision of design centred on enhancing natural components and reusing cork in a circular way, a factor that sets us apart in our supply chain and makes Diasen a working and design community unlike any other”.

Diasen is at BAU 2025 with an innovative stand, conceived and designed by the designer Giulio Iacchetti, who has harmonised a limited space and turned it into a work that showcases paints and bio-mortars, skilfully combining effects and colours, and where a central shelf, predominantly of curved forms, becomes the conceptual meeting point of distinct universes united by the experience of cork as a link between people and nature: CorkPhilia. A true microcosm dedicated to the biophilia of materials, in which cork’s versatile character, the warm aesthetics of bio-mortars, the chromatic range of the paints and the materials’ ability to deliver material effects, tactile sensations and visual emotions all emerge. A perfect example of how a project’s great inspiration always comes from three Cs: knowledge, creativity and sharing.
