This destruction starts as early as 250 \u00b0C, while at 400 \u00b0C the strength is already reduced by half. Due to the thermal conductivity of the construction, these high temperatures are directly transferred to all areas of the house, which, combined with the toxic fumes produced, endangers the residents and makes it difficult for them to escape.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the contrary, <strong>a wooden house<\/strong> it takes no general damage but only <strong>local<\/strong>. The flame is created at 270 \u00b0C and starts on its outer surface, creating a layer of carbon, which up to 500 \u00b0C protects the rest of the wood. The parts of the house that are damaged by the fire, we either clean them or replace them, and the static adequacy of the building is the same as it was before the fire. In addition, it is a very poor conductor of heat and thus does not endanger the other areas of the house, allowing the inhabitants to escape easily.

Their philosophy underscores continuous innovation\u2014they don't aim to build more homes, but to build better homes Strength & Certification The company's unique construction system has undergone rigorous experimental testing at the National Technical University of Athens, proving its durability well beyond natural endurance limits. Innovations introduced by KOFINAS are internationally recognized and certified.
