Reaction to fire: A2-s1, d0 to BS EN 13501-1
BBA Agrément Certificate
Certificate type
A highly durable external wall insulation with mineral fibre boards and mineralic render, providing excellent fire protection and thermal performance.
External wall insulation Suitable for fixing to either bare concrete or masonry, previously rendered or painted concrete or masonry, or onto a light steel framed or timber framed construction with suitable sheathing board. For new build or refurbishment projects. Can be installed without restriction in height or proximity to boundaries.
Insulation fixings
To fix insulation to masonry, concrete and panel backgrounds, a variety of thermally-broken hammer and screw-driven dowel fixings are available. Spacing and number of fixings to suit substrate and wind load conditions.
Finish
Render - Stolit, StoSilco, StoLotusan
Architectural Elements - StoBrick, StoCleyer B brick slips, StoEco shapes, StoDeco panels or profiles
Range of intelligent facade paints
The StoTherm Mineral K System comprises an impact resistant render finish to non-combustible rock mineral fibre insulation boards. Insulation boards are adhesive and mechanically fixed to a masonry or suitably sheathed light steel frame substrate. Through coloured render finishes are low maintenance, weather resistant and vapour permeable for external wall insulation.
The system has an A2-s1, d0 reaction to fire classification in accordance with BS EN 13501-1 :2010 and can be installed without restriction in height or proximity to boundaries.
The StoTherm Mineral K system can also be configured to achieve an A1 reaction to fire classification. Consult manufacturer for details.
For insulation and render finishes to below DPC zones consult manufacturer.
Quick Set (QS) versions of materials offer frost resistance and wash-off protection at temperatures from +1°C and 95% relative humidity, reducing potential construction delays due to cold weather - consult manufacturer for recommendations.
