Around 40% of all thermal bridges in a building are caused by walls and columns. They are responsible for around 10% of heating energy wastage.
With the Schöck Sconnex® product range, Schöck has transferred its Isokorb® expertise from balconies to walls and columns, offering a high-quality solution that’s easy to use and contributes to a sustainable building concept.

With Sconnex® type P, type W and type M, walls and columns can be directly and permanently insulated. Sconnex® promises an effective, elegant, and visually appealing solution, especially when it comes to thermally exposed components, such as walls and columns in damp areas, façade projections, undercuts, colonnades, loggias, pergolas, etc. Sconnex® efficiently insulates the resulting thermal bridges and offers reliable protection against construction damage caused by condensation and mold.
Sconnex® is an economically, creatively and structurally optimized solution for thermally separating reinforced concrete walls. Finally, we can see the end of wood wall boards on the ceilings of underground garages.
A lot of my designs owe their lightness and freedom to Schöck components because I have Schöck in mind from my very first sketch and I know Schöck can deliver.
Thanks to Schöck Sconnex®, we can now plan the thermal envelope throughout, almost completely independently of the room layout. This eliminates planning and execution errors and significantly reduces the risk of construction damage due to condensation and mold. What's more, it looks much better – which makes Sconnex® a real alternative to flanking insulation.
For me, Sconnex® has created a completely new approach: by thermally separating the walls directly on the floor slab, we were able to save on insulation underneath the building and move the insulation to the inside. Sconnex® made it possible to reduce our insulation costs and create an optimal sustainable insulation solution in terms of building physics.
Schöck Sconnex® was used in a particularly innovative way to sustainably modernize the historic Hörnli lodge (Hornlihütte) and reduce heat emission to a minimum.
