Envelope_DPR.indd 1 Sto creates fi re compliant facades across multiple residential buildings
An external wall insulation system manufactured by Sto has optimised fi re protection for a multi-block residential development. The project’s fi rst phase comprised two buildings which had the StoTherm Mineral K EWI system specifi ed to meet the required fi re rating while maximising thermal performance. BBA-certifi ed, StoTherm Mineral K features A1 mineral fi bre insulation boards and the system is classifi ed with an A2-s1, d0 reaction to fi re in accordance with BS EN 13501. Specialist surface fi nishers, One & Maike was responsible for installing StoTherm Mineral K on behalf of principal contractor Osprey, a facade remediation specialist. The insulation boards were fi xed directly to the existing concrete substrate avoiding the need for a cavity. StoLevell Duo Plus, a strong mineral adhesive, was applied to the back of the insulation boards, and additional fi xings were also used to secure the insulation boards to the substrate to suit wind load conditions. Sto-Glass Fibre Mesh was then embedded into the outer surface of the reinforcing coat providing crack resistance to the system. The system was fi nished with StoSilco K1.5, a silicone resin render ensuring high levels of water repellence and protection from harsh weather conditions.
