153 mm aluminium ITE starter rail, 2.5 m, for external thermal insulation

The starter profile suitable for 150 mm insulation

The 153 mm aluminium ITE starter rail is an essential accessory for installing external thermal insulation using 150 mm-thick insulation boards. Positioned at the bottom of the façade, it creates a perfectly straight base to ensure the insulation system is installed under the best possible conditions. Made from high-quality aluminium, this starter profile offers long-lasting resistance to moisture, corrosion and climatic variations. It effectively protects the lower part of the insulation system against mechanical impact and contributes to the overall durability of the external insulation. The 153 mm starter rail is particularly suitable for energy-efficient renovation projects requiring 150 mm of external insulation. Compatible with expanded polystyrene, rock wool or wood fibre panels, it meets the needs of both building professionals and homeowners wishing to improve the thermal performance of their homes whilst benefiting from an attractive and durable façade.

Our ITE expert’s opinion

This 153 mm starter rail is designed for insulation approximately 150 mm thick. Fix it in place with closely spaced wall plugs; this forms the basis of the entire external wall insulation system, and any error here will affect the entire façade.
