The SmartWall is a prefabricated all-in-one wall panel that can be installed externally or internally in existing building envelopes but also can be a standalone wall, suggesting a feasible, adaptable and cost-effective solution for deep renovation.
Objectives
Improve the thermal insulation and mechanical ventilation of the buildings. Achieve fast installation posing minimum disturbance to the occupants.
It is a multi-component and multi-functional system, aiming to ameliorate existing building’s performance on different levels (e.g. thermal, acoustical performance, fire resistance). It can be filled with eco-friendly and recycled insulation material such as rockwool, cellulose or even Super Insulation Material (SIM) to improve the thermal transmittance of the external walls. It can operate also as a standalone HVAC system, able to maintain indoor thermal and air quality comfort conditions and can integrate mechanical, electrical and plumbing distribution and equipment.
All the components of the panel are enclosed in a steel stud, timber or other type of frame that is easy to install and consequently achieving less time on-site and less disruption to the occupants. The Smart Wall panels are versatile and customized according to the specific needs of each building case.
Work Carried Out So Far & Milestones Achieved
AMS successfully manufactured the SmartWall units for the Greek, Dutch and Spanish demo building and have been already installed at the Greek demo building.
