Performance You Can Build On: FassaTherm Frame Plus, A96 and Expert Training Combined

Latest News Thu, May 7, 2026 1:13 PM

Fassa Bortolo’s FassaTherm systems continue to set the benchmark for high-performance external wall insulation, combining technical excellence with practical on-site application. Designed to meet the evolving demands of energy efficiency, fire safety, and façade durability, the FassaTherm range offers a comprehensive suite of solutions for both new-build and refurbishment projects. At the forefront of this innovation is the FassaTherm Frame Plus system, a robust solution specifically engineered for timber frame and lightweight steel frame constructions.


Frame Plus has been developed to address the unique challenges of modern structural systems, where thermal performance, moisture management and fire resistance must work in harmony. Incorporating mineral wool insulation, the system provides excellent thermal conductivity while offering inherent non-combustibility - an increasingly critical factor in today’s regulatory landscape. Its vapour-permeable nature ensures that buildings can “breathe,” reducing the risk of condensation and contributing to long-term structural integrity.


A key component within this system is Fassa’s A96 adhesive and basecoat. Renowned for its versatility and reliability, A96 plays a crucial role in securing insulation boards while providing a durable, impact-resistant base for subsequent finishes. Its high workability allows for efficient application on site, supporting consistent results across varying project conditions. Whether used in basecoat reinforcement or as part of a full system build-up, A96 underpins the strength and longevity that specifiers and contractors expect from FassaTherm solutions.


Beyond product performance, Fassa Bortolo places significant emphasis on knowledge sharing and installer competence. The company’s dedicated training facilities provide hands-on experience with FassaTherm systems, ensuring that contractors and applicators fully understand best practice installation techniques. These training programmes are designed not only to improve workmanship, but also to bridge the gap between specification and execution - an area often overlooked in façade performance.


Attendees benefit from practical demonstrations, technical guidance, and insights into system detailing, helping to mitigate common on-site challenges. This commitment to education reinforces Fassa’s wider philosophy: that even the most advanced systems rely on skilled application to achieve their full potential. By investing in training, Fassa Bortolo ensures that its systems are installed correctly, delivering the performance outcomes they are designed for.


In an industry increasingly focused on sustainability and compliance, FassaTherm stands out as a complete solution. From the fire-safe properties of Frame Plus and mineral wool insulation to the dependable performance of A96, every component is engineered with purpose. Combined with industry-leading training support, Fassa Bortolo offers more than just products: it provides confidence at every stage of a project, from design through to completion.
