Thermal Conductivity
λ = 0,045 W/mK
Thanks to the right mix of carefully selected natural raw materials, the product achieves high levels of thermal insulation.
Thermal Diffusivity
0,125 x 10⁻⁶ m²/s
The low diffusivity value (α) indicates a high degree of insulation from heat and therefore greater comfort and savings for summer cooling.
Fire resistant
CLASS A1
Classified in class A1 according to UNI EN ISO 13501-1. No flame generation and no smoke emission.
Breathability
μ = 4
Thanks to the high value of permeability (μ), the humidity of the indoors is perfectly balanced, thus avoiding the formation of moulds and condensation
Porosity
71,64%
The cavities and gaps in the plaster allow moisture and condensation to be absorbed and disposed of.
Density
360 ± 20 kg/m³
Macroporous structure with high air content guarantees excellent performance in terms of insulation and absorption of excess moisture.
Mechanical Strength
1,5 N/mm² // 217.6 lbf/in² (psi) (Bending)
2,95 N/mm² // 427.9 lbf/in² (psi) (Compressive)
High strength, durability and stability over time.

Royal Palace of Évora: a revolution of the living comfort
“Architecture means building environment for the people, universities, museums, schools, concert halls: these are all places that become outposts against barbarism.”
Renzo Piano
Unlike dry board systems, Diathonite Evolution is malleable and flexible when being applied.
The magic of materials
These all-natural ingredients are sympathetic to the conservation requirements of listed buildings and will contribute to LEED credits.
