THERMAL INSULATION
For perfect thermal protection and sound proofing, the façades comprise Diasen “Diathonite Evolution”, which is a natural eco-friendly premixed plaster (with cork), totally cement-free, made with pure natural hydraulic lime, clay, diatomaceous earth and reinforcing fibres. This product has the best coefficient of thermal conductivity currently on the market for thermal coatings. Another advantage is that with this solution we have also eliminated using plastic / oil-based materials in the wall structure. We also eliminated using plastic products under wooden parquet floors, cork-based material will provide the sound insulation required.
BIOCLIMATIC ARCHITECTURE
Based on the principles of bioclimatic architecture, the building design and architecture at Ombria Algarve employs the use of both locally inspired regional elements and locally sourced natural materials, leading to an overall reduction of energy consumption and environmental footprint.
LIGHTING
Lighting for both public spaces and interiors have been carefully selected to minimize energy consumption and maximize lifespan – with all installations using LED technology. Photoelectric sensors also help to maximize energy efficiency with centralized control systems for indoor and outdoor lighting that follow changes in daylight, weather and occupancy.
