HYH — steel-mesh integrated insulation with light-steel formwork

A cast-in-place wall technology of Chinese origin: welded galvanized steel-mesh panels with an integrated 150 mm EPS core stand as permanent formwork, braced and plumbed by light-steel profiles — one pour produces a structural, insulated wall with a U-value around 0.2 W/m²K.

How the system works

  • Welded galvanized steel-mesh panels carry a 150 mm EPS core and brace to a light-steel profile grid
  • Profiles are set on the prepared slab and plumbed before the pour — then stay inside the wall, no stripping cycle
  • Concrete is cast into the cavity, bonding structure, mesh, and insulation into one wall section
  • Core options beyond EPS — rock wool or foamed cement — swap in without changing the erection method

Why owners pick it

  • 150 mm EPS takes the wall to a U-value around 0.2 W/m²K — compliance-grade for Saudi efficiency codes
  • Insulation and structure share the same service life — no later re-insulation campaign
  • Each hoist lands hundreds of kilograms of panels instead of tonnes of timber formwork
  • Thin, continuous insulation trims thermal bridges at slabs, columns, and corners
  • Stable indoor temperatures cut summer cooling demand in the Gulf climate
  • Erection is dry, quiet, and fast — interior works start the day after the pour
  • Finished faces take render, cladding, or paint directly

Comfort living

  • Stable, uniform indoor temperatures — no hot walls, no cold corners
  • The insulation core and finished faces dampen traffic and street noise
  • Dry, low-dust erection with interiors starting the day after the pour — occupancy happens earlier
