The Off-site modular construction allows to design and manufacture the structural elements of a building directly in the factory and then to end the assembly at the worksite, thus saving time, costs and considerably reducing the risks related to the management of the building site. Panurania has got a technology that enables us to produce…

This is a special panel, born from all-around collaboration with one of our Customers, used as an external wall on modular structures. Its distinctive characteristics are its fitting for the routing of systems and its internal metal reinforcements to withstand strong mechanical stresses. Covering Rock wool panels. The panel is composed of an external cladding…

Sliding Doors and Windows for Glamping. Recently we have heard a lot of Glamping, that is … camping but Glamour: life in contact with nature without giving up comfort. In Glamping the windows and doors can become a feature of aesthetic value of the structure. In the two prefabricated structures installed in Cuba, using the…

Prefabricated houses are housing solutions that offer a simpler, faster implementation method. Ecological, cost effective, functional and, above all, safe: prefabricated houses are in no way inferior to traditional buildings. Panhouse: the Urania Group system for the construction of bungalows for holiday resorts and camp-sites. Panhouse is the Urania Group construction system based on the…

When we talk about insulation and environments, the first aspect we usually highlight is thermal insulation, or the back and forth heat exchange between internal and external environments. However, we must not disregard the importance of protecting ourselves from noise to ensure good environmental comfort. In fact, noises with certain intensity and spectral composition can produce an auditory deficit over time, which hampers people’s ability to perceive the acoustic frequencies of the spoken voice (500, 1000, 2000 Hz), and seriously damages the quality of life. To clarify this aspect, we should take a step back and do a brief acoustics refresher.

When building or renovating a house, fixtures and doors/windows are often the most difficult elements to choose, given the variety of types and materials available on the market. Each door/window features its own distinctive traits hence every room calls for a different fixture. If, for example, the focus lies on thermal insulation, we must select a fixture suitable to that end.

Proper acoustic damping of doors and windows is key to make any environment liveable. Over time, cars, vibrations and other noises coming from the outside can turn from a simple nuisance to a real stressor, especially at night. Thus, care must be taken to choose only quality fixtures, designed to operate optimally as acoustic insulation.
