For several years we’ve been observing an increase in awareness of the benefits of energy-saving constructionwhich is environmentally friendly and cost-effective. Particularly interesting in this context is passive construction, focused on providing residents with thermal comfort in winter and summer, with very low energy demand. Houses of this kind have got many advantages, including extremely innovative solutions.
What is passive construction?
Houses built in accordance with the principles of passive construction are highly energy-saving facilities, acquiring heat from the outside, e.g. from the ground or sunlight. In such a house, doors and windows are placed close to the edge of the building in order to achieve the highest possible thermal optimality. Thermal energy is also obtained from electronic equipment operating in the house and other heat emitting objects.
Passive buildings are also characterized by high insulation parameters to ensure adequate air circulation. They are equipped with modern ventilation systems. As a result, bills for heating are much lower than in standard buildings.
The application of GreenEvo winners’ technology for the construction of passive houses
When planning the construction of passive buildings, it is worth using modern technologies available on the domestic construction market. The GreenEvo program brings together technologies from various sectors of industry, such as: water and sewage management, waste management, air protection or renewable energy sources; as well as solutions conducive to energy savings, which include among others energy-saving and passive construction technologies.
IZODOM
One of the technologies of this type is offered by IZODOM 2000 Polska sp. z o.o. from Zdunska Wola. It specializes in high-quality and durable solutions that allow you to accelerate construction of residential buildings and reduce its costs.
Fast construction is possible thanks to the modular nature of this technology. The buildings are erected in a very simple way: a solution offered by IZODOM 2000 Polska sp. z o.o. is based on the blocks that serve as building blocks for the walls. These blocks are made of extremely durable materials, additionally providing excellent insulation to the constructed buildings. They are connected by the IZOClick® system, without the need to use any mortar. This solution also allows to reduce the occurrence of thermal bridges causing heat loss.
The IZODOM company can not only boast of innovative technology, but can also be proud of impressive successes on construction projects. The IZODOM company provided its technology, among others, for the construction of the palace of the royal family in Morocco with an area of 10,000 square meters ! They also built a housing estate composed of 2 500 houses for the sheikh of Abu Dhabi. Moreover, passive objects erected by IZODOM are always adapted to local standards. You can learn more about the IZODOM technology from the article available on our website.

H-Block®
It is also worth taking an interest in the H-Block® technology launched bySolcraft company. z o.o., based in Michałowice. The construction system hidden under this name is addressed to the general public contractors, construction companies and construction developers involved in erecting energy-saving residential buildings and public utility buildings.
H-Block® is a pro-ecological and energy-saving construction and insulation system. Thanks to this system it is possible to quickly and effectively build warm, airtight and cost-effective buildings using lightweight and durable materials.
The lightweight H-Block® insulation board can be used e.g. for the construction of load-bearing and/or curtain walls, as well as roofs and floors. The boards can also be used as a filler of wooden, steel or reinforced concrete construction. The main advantage of this technology is its high insulation parameters, which makes it perfect for erecting both energy-saving and passive houses.
Another argument in favor of Solcraft’s solution is also its resistance to external factors: solvents, acids, mold,water, high temperature, but also rodents and insects. Moreover, this material is resistant to aging, therefore it does not change its insulating properties as a result of progressing the passage of time.
Solcraft sp. z o.o. can boast of an impressive number of implementations not only in Poland, but also across Europe, from Spain to Sweden. The company has implemented many projects in the area of residential construction, industrial construction and service construction. Number of investments unequivocally proves the high quality of services provided by this company.
