Uninsulated cladding systems

An elegant, durable facade can be created with cladding-only options where exterior wall insulation is not suitable or required. Sto's cladding systems allow the structural wall to be levelled before the cladding material is bonded to the exterior, creating an even, streamlined facade with minimal added depth. This can be employed on new build, extension or renovation projects, especially where aesthetic consistency is required with other parts of the building or the surrounding neighbourhood. Claddings are available in numerous materials, colours, textures and effects to achieve the desired look.

Products and systems vary from location to location due to local building regulations and standards. We strongly advise you to contact your local expert who will be happy to consult you on standards and approval.

System benefits

Depending on the cladding chosen for the system, the complexity of the design and specific building details, cladding applied directly to the surface can create a beautiful and consistent aesthetic.

• level uneven surfaces for a clean finish
• cost-effective, uniform aesthetic between insulated an uninsulated sections of the building
• high impact & weather resistance, including for building plinths
• combine and juxtapose with render systems for creative designs
• multiple finish options to suit any style or colour palette

Facade cladding options

Multiple cladding materials can be selected and combined for a distinctive facade.

• Clay brick slips
• Brick, metal, concrete & wood effect render tiles
• Geometric render tiles
• Ceramic tiles
• 3D sculpted facade profiles & panels
• Natural stone tiles & panels
• Glass mosaic tiles

Enhanced performance & aesthetics with innovative coatings

Some cladding materials are suitable for additional coatings to enhance aesthetics, for example to achieve a specific colour with a paint finish such as a 'painted brick' look. Enhanced performance coatings can help reduce the impact of surface moisture on building facades, helping to keep the facade looking its best for many years.

• StoColor Dryonic - protect from algae & fungus
• StoColor Photosan - break down airborne pollutants
• StoColor X-Black - prevent solar-related cracking & discolouring
• StoColor Lotusan - hydrophobic surface to keep the surface cleaner
