For the coastal areas of Vlora, Durrës, and Saranda, we recommend systems with high resistance to salt and wind—especially Bramac tiles with anti-corrosion treatment and Wolfin/Icopal membranes for flat roofs. The warranty covers damages from the marine climate.
What is Ytong and why is it used in construction?
Ytong is an autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) block, a lightweight material with integrated thermal insulation. It builds faster than traditional brick (up to 4x faster), reduces the need for additional insulation, and is fire-resistant (REI 240). Ymalko sells it throughout Albania.

What is the best skylight for houses in Tirana?
Fakro is our first choice for the Albanian market — the FTP-V model with energy-efficient double glazing is the most sought-after in Tirana because it balances thermal insulation (Uw 1.0 W/m²K) with price. For premium budgets, the Fakro FTT U8 Thermo is the passive standard.
Does Ymalko have basement waterproofing products?
We offer Vedag, Icopal, and Siplast bituminous membranes specifically for waterproofing foundations and basements. Two-layer systems guarantee protection from groundwater, a common problem in areas with high water tables in Albania.

Can I order small quantities from Ymalko?
Po, Ymalko also serves individuals and small projects — there is no minimum order quantity. You can buy a Ytong pallet, a roll of membrane, or a few Bramac tiles for repairs. However, the price per unit is better in larger quantities.
