Humidity management is achieved using natural air-handling ceilings made up of HUMID modules from ArgillaTherm, a specialist in environmentally friendly air-conditioning systems and products. Thanks to the hygroscopic material used, these virtually carbon-neutral modules are capable of absorbing a high level of moisture in a short space of time, which they then release as soon as there is no longer a need for cooling. The system is sustainable, ensures healthy heating and cooling of indoor spaces that is also suitable for allergy sufferers and asthmatics, and protects the fabric of the building. Decentralised ventilation units from SIEGENIA – such as the AEROMAT VT WRG facade ventilator or the AEROPLUS WRG wall-mounted ventilator – ensure that CO2 is removed and ventilation is tailored to requirements. In addition to ventilation, they offer a number of additional functions such as heat recovery and sound absorption as well as filter functions and sensors for healthy living.

The combination of ArgillaTherm natural air-handling ceilings with decentralised ventilation units from SIEGENIA reduces investment costs by up to 30 percent and operating and maintenance costs by more than 60 percent when compared to conventional solutions. It also has the added benefit of significantly reduced planning costs, installation of the ventilation technology without the need for specialist companies and exemption from mandatory inspections for fire dampers, for example. Funding opportunities can also be maximised in this way.
