Our skilled team of in-house architects and retrofit assessors work collaboratively to design and specify the right solution. Whilst known predominately for bricks and roofing products, wienerberger will source, where relevant, products suitable for the retrofit from our sister companies, FloPlast, Building Product Design, Maincor and Pipelife, as well as specify products from third party suppliers that fall outside of our portfolio to meet the upgrade requirements.
Upgrade of external walls, roofs, and floors using high-performance insulation tailored to the building’s construction type.
Improved airtightness through detailed sealing at junctions, service penetrations, and envelope interfaces.
Replacement or enhancement of existing units with energy-efficient double - or triple-glazed windows and insulated external doors to improve thermal and acoustic performance.
Mechanical & Electrical (M&E) Systems
Heating Systems
Transition from fossil fuel-based systems to low-carbon alternatives such as air source heat pumps, or high-efficiency boiler upgrades where applicable.
Ventilation
Installation or upgrade of ventilation systems, including mechanical ventilation and heat recovery (MVHR) units where suitable, to enhance indoor air quality and energy recovery.
Controls
Integration of smart, intuitive heating and ventilation controls to optimise system performance and encourage resident engagement.
Renewables
Incorporation of solar PV or solar thermal systems where feasible, reducing reliance on grid energy and lowering operational carbon emissions.
High-standard restoration of internal finishes following retrofit works.
Use of breathable, low-VOC, and sustainable materials to support indoor air quality and occupant wellbeing.
Careful design and execution to prevent thermal bridging and condensation, preserving comfort and structural integrity.
Integration with Existing Features
Preservation
Retention and enhancement of significant architectural or heritage elements.
Compatibility
ISelection of materials and systems that complement existing structures and finishes.
Sensitive Design
Discreet integration of new technologies and systems to ensure aesthetic coherence and respect for the building’s character.
