Introduction

External Insulating Systems

From conception 50 years ago Polystyrene EIF systems have become a leading medium in the cladding and insulating of buildings. EIF systems provide a durable, economical and efficient means of insulation, when combined with proprietary componentry, testing has proven the cladding system meets the most stringent weather conditions world wide.

 

StoTherm Systems meet the requirements pertaining to a sophisticated building unit. Suitable for complicated constructions and at home in a variety of architectural styles. Sto, a world leader in manufacturing insulated plaster systems has provided over 350 million square metres of insulated cladding to date.

 

Employing over 120 technical staff with a complex range of modern analytical equipment, Sto pursues innovative technology that will meet ecologically acceptable standards. Using this approach Sto has developed a comprehensive range of facade plasters, finishing renders and cladding solutions to enable the specifiers to select an individual style to meet the project requirements.

StoTherm Plaster System 4/5 mm

StoTherm is a European white mineral basecoat plaster with good adhesion, added micro fibre for extra reinforcement and a calibration grain for basecoat build. It is sealed with Stoplex and plastered with Stolit K coloured fibre reinforced finishing render before being coated with StoColor Maxicryl or StoLastic Color facade paint for ease of maintenance. For a component break-down of the StoTherm Plaster System 4/5mm, please refer to the StoTherm brochure.

 

Stolit: Coloured Finishing Renders

Stolit organic finishing renders are manufactured in Europe and certified around the world. They have been in successful use for over 50 years on a variety of different substrates. During this time they have undergone a continual process of optimisation.

 

The perfect combination of properties: Durable, strong, hardwearing, impact resistant, malleable, weather resistant, colour stable and highly resistant to micro-organism. They are designed with good vapour permeability to allow the building to breathe while still repelling liquid water. All renders are easy to apply and can be tinted from the StoColor System or matched to the colour of your choice, using the Sto spectrometer.

The Perfect Finish: Competence in Colour

The well-aimed use of colour in a manner which complements the architecture is subject to specific laws. The StoColor System provides a clear framework and a systematic approach to colour design based on subtly nuanced colour concepts of high aesthetic appeal. The StoColor System eschews colorimetric logic in favour of human perception of colour. It is based primarily on the colours yellow, orange, red, violet, blue and green. These six sections are then mixed to form the 24 basic tones which correspond to the 24-part colour wheel.
