Ecological Building Systems

Ecological Building Systems Ecological Building Systems has been at the forefront of airtight and windtight building products and

Our focus is to deliver building products that achieve 'diffusion open' buildings. We have extensive warehouse and distribution channels in both Ireland and the UK to ensure that our supply chain is serviced. Our pro clima range of airtightness and windtightness products are supplied through a network of stockists, who have been trained by ourselves and are fully supported with our back up technical support.

What happens when an insulated wall needs to support more than just insulation?

Thermal performance is essential, but so is making sure a wall can accommodate the practical demands of everyday use.

This is where Warmotech Phonotherm (RG550) comes into its own.

This high-strength structural insulation board provides a stable base for secure fixings while helping to minimise thermal bridging.

Commonly used around windows, doors and other critical building junctions, its versatility extends to applications you might not immediately think of.

In this project, Warmotech Phonotherm was incorporated into a Gutex Thermoroom internally insulated wall to provide a robust fixing point for heavy wall lights.

🎥 Watch the video to discover how a small detail can make a big difference to the finished installation.

Discover the EcoCocon Straw Wall Panel System through hands-on training.

Join us for an in-person training session offering a unique opportunity to explore the EcoCocon Straw Wall Panel System through a combination of technical knowledge and hands-on experience.

Combining technical knowledge with practical experience, this training provides the opportunity to explore the principles of vapour-open construction, understand the design and installation of EcoCocon straw wall panels, and gain first-hand experience assembling the system.

Led by experienced industry professionals, the session offers 4.5 CPD points and valuable insight into the use of natural materials in high-performance buildings.

We are hosting practical training sessions at two locations:

📍 Building Better Centre, Carlisle | 10th November
https://loom.ly/e4NYfts

📍 National Self Build & Renovation Centre (NSBRC), Swindon | 24th November
https://loom.ly/zoMsfzk

Places are very limited, so early registration is recommended.
We look forward to welcoming you soon!

In new-build projects airtightness targets are set early on, but actually achieving them depends on what happens throughout construction. That means having a clear plan for how the airtightness strategy will be implemented and checked on site.

Some important considerations include:

🔹 Who is responsible for installing and checking the airtightness measures at each stage?
🔹 Are the necessary seals and connections completed before they become concealed by subsequent works?
🔹 Do the different trades understand how their work could affect the airtightness layer?
🔹 Are critical details inspected and photographed before they're covered up?
🔹 Is an interim airtightness test planned while defects can still be identified and rectified without extensive remedial work?

These are practical decisions that need to be made before work begins and followed through as the project progresses.
A final airtightness test provides an important measure of performance, but it shouldn't be the first opportunity to discover that something has gone wrong.

We're proud to support the publication of Ireland Architecture 250+ Buildings since 1990, a remarkable project by architect Seán Antóin Ó Muirí, documenting over three decades of architecture across Ireland.

The result of 15 years of research and dedication, the book brings together some of the country's most significant buildings and the architects behind them. It's a remarkable achievement and a fitting celebration of Ireland's architectural landscape over the past 35 years.

Seán will be celebrating the publication with a special launch in Cork on Friday, 6th November, and everyone is welcome to attend.

📍 St Angela's College, Patrick's Hill, Cork City
📅 Friday, 6th November 2026
🕡 6:30pm–8:30pm

The evening will feature a talk by writer and playwright Cónal Creedon, along with a drinks reception and traditional music.

Congratulations to Seán on bringing this ambitious publication to life. We hope you can join him in Cork to celebrate the launch and the years of work that have gone into creating this important record of Irish architecture.

Another recognition for the team at this year's Architects’ Choice Awards! 🎉

Our Low Carbon Solutions in Action roadshow received a Commendation in the Best Services Provider category, recognising an initiative that brought practical learning and technical knowledge to building professionals across seven locations in Ireland.

The roadshow featured demonstration structures incorporating natural materials and timber frame construction, designed for disassembly and reuse at each event to support circularity.

In this short video, Niall Crosson reflects on the commendation and acknowledges the work of Technical Manager Joe and our technical team in delivering the roadshow.

A great achievement for everyone involved!

Our Redstone Pura Core internal wall insulation system received a High Commendation at Architecture + Building Expo 2026. 🎉

Designed for the internal insulation of solid masonry walls, Pura Core combines thermal performance with moisture management and A1 non-combustible insulation boards, making it a valuable solution for both traditional buildings and retrofit projects.

In this video, Niall Crosson explains how Pura Core works and where it can be used.

We're delighted to see this solution receive industry recognition and proud to share another highlight from a fantastic week for the team.

What a way to wrap up Architecture & Building Expo 2026! 🏆

It's been a fantastic two days at the RDS, and we're heading home with plenty to celebrate!

From catching up with familiar faces and meeting new ones to discussing projects and demonstrating our new System Calculator, it's been a busy and rewarding couple of days for the team.

And to top it all off, we're incredibly proud to have received three recognitions at this year's Architects' Choice Awards:

🏆 Best Services Provider – System Calculator
⭐ Commended – Low Carbon Solutions in Action Roadshow
⭐ Highly Commended – redstone Pura Core

These awards mean a great deal to our team and reflect the hard work, knowledge and dedication that go into everything we do. To see three very different areas of our work recognised makes the occasion even more special.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our stand over the two days, to the judging panel and, of course, to our brilliant team who made it all happen.

We're finishing the week feeling very proud, grateful and excited about what's ahead!
