Renovating an old existing commercial building to modern safety, energy and comfort standards is often extremely difficult, because old building structures were not designed to support the heavy weight of new brick or concrete walls. EPS Cement Sandwich Panel is the perfect solution for these retrofit projects, because its ultra low weight adds almost no extra dead load to the old building structure, so you almost never need to install expensive structural reinforcement before you can start renovation work. You can replace old, cracked, inefficient walls with these high performance panels to instantly upgrade the building’s seismic safety, fire resistance and energy efficiency, without the massive cost of structural upgrades. The panels can be installed quickly with minimal noise and disruption, so you can even complete retrofit work in a partially occupied commercial building without disturbing existing tenants very much. After the retrofit is finished, the building’s total energy consumption will drop by 40%, making it far more attractive to modern tenants who want low utility bills, and you will be able to charge higher rental rates for the upgraded space. Many old commercial buildings that were considered too expensive or difficult to renovate can be brought back to life affordably with these panels, extending their usable lifespan by decades and turning them into modern, high value profitable properties.
