Tax relief and energy-efficiency refurbishment: why planning the work is essential and how low-profile solutions can support construction professionals.

In the construction and building refurbishment sector, managing site schedules is a crucial factor. When a project is subject to tax deadlines, completing the work on schedule becomes even more important.
The Natis document identifies 2026 as a reference year for the deduction rates relating to the Ecobonus and the Renovation Bonus. In this context, designers and contractors are called upon to carefully assess the technical solutions, installation times and characteristics of the buildings to be refurbished.
The effectiveness of a project depends not only on the performance of the insulation system, but also on its compatibility with the operational requirements of the building site.
Tax deductions: the role of planning interventions
Tax incentives for building and energy-efficiency works are one of the factors to be taken into account when planning the works. The initial document specifies a rate of 50 per cent for the Renovation Bonus and the Ecobonus for 2026, and indicates that a reduction is expected from 2027.
The actual conditions for eligibility for tax relief, the applicable rates and the requirements for the works must be verified in accordance with current legislation and the specific circumstances of the property.
For engineering firms and contractors, this means paying attention not only to the design, but also to the planning of the construction work, the availability of materials and the ability to meet the agreed deadlines.
Construction timelines: a factor to be taken into account right from the design stage
Traditional thermal insulation works may require complex procedures, the management of scaffolding and careful planning of the various stages of the project.
Opting for a low-profile system may be an option worth considering when the project requires a compact design and the simplification of certain manufacturing processes.
It is important, however, that each solution is selected on the basis of the characteristics of the substrate, the required performance and the manufacturer’s technical specifications.
Natis nanotechnology insulation: performance and flexibility of application
Natis offers low-thickness nanotechnology insulation solutions, designed for use in the construction sector and for projects where space is at a premium.
The range described in the document includes Natis Paste and Natis Paint, products that can be applied, depending on the technical specifications, using a trowel, roller or airless spray system.
This flexibility in application makes it possible to evaluate Natis solutions in a variety of design contexts, including projects where reduced thicknesses and surface profiles are key factors.
The main benefits to consider during the design phase
- Low-build application
Natis solutions are presented as low-thickness insulation systems, which are useful in situations where the physical footprint of the installation needs to be kept to a minimum.
This aspect may be relevant in renovation projects, where the preservation of interior spaces and the building’s existing features requires a specific assessment.
- Management of spaces and surface areas
Thin-layer insulation may be considered for work on interior surfaces, attics, under terraces and other areas subject to dimensional or geometric constraints.
Feasibility and performance must be verified for each application, based on the product’s technical documentation.
- Work on complex areas of the building envelope
The document highlights the possibility of taking action on aspects such as:
- Window lintels.
- Under the balconies.
- Eaves.
- Geometrically complex surfaces.
These construction details require careful planning in order to identify the solutions best suited to the requirements for insulation and the continuity of the building envelope.
- Redevelopment of listed buildings
In historic buildings or those subject to landscape and aesthetic restrictions, the choice of insulation must take into account the architectural features and any design constraints.
Low-profile solutions may be considered as one of the available alternatives, subject to verification of their compatibility with the constraints, technical requirements and necessary authorisations
Natis Paste and Natis Paint: choose the system to suit the requirements of the building site
The Natis range includes two solutions mentioned in the original document:
Natis Paint
A semi-liquid coating suitable for application by roller and airless spray, intended for use on surfaces that comply with the product’s technical specifications.
Natis Paste
A trowel-applied insulating skim coat, suitable for use on various types of surfaces, in accordance with the procedures and requirements set out in the technical documentation.
The choice between systems must be made taking into account the type of substrate, the site conditions, the intended design outcome and the method of application.
How to assess an insulation solution for upcoming construction projects
Before incorporating an insulation system into a project, it is worth considering a few key points:
- Building features: type of construction, condition of the substrate and intended use.
- Performance targets: requirements for insulation, comfort and energy efficiency.
- Available thicknesses: any restrictions relating to internal surfaces, thresholds, window sills and other structural elements.
- Installation instructions: compatibility between the application system, the site conditions and the planned timetable.
- Technical documentation: declared performance, installation instructions, certifications and applicable requirements.
- Tax considerations: checking the eligibility criteria for tax relief with the relevant professionals.
A preliminary assessment enables the insulation solution to be incorporated into the project in a more informed manner and reduces the risk of unforeseen issues arising during the works.
Put your trust in Natis to assess your next project
The management of construction schedules and the choice of insulation system are aspects that must be analysed together, particularly when carrying out work on existing buildings or on sites subject to specific restrictions.
Natis’s nanotechnology solutions are designed to offer a low-thickness option to be considered in light of the project’s requirements and the building’s characteristics.
