Material Summary

  • Core: Lightweight, high-density EPS foamcore
  • Reinforcement: Alkali-resistant fiberglass mesh
  • Finish: Proprietary polymer-modified cement finish

Engineered for zero-joint expansion and 100% moisture resistance.

Technical Specifications +
  • Core Material: High-density expanded polystyrene (EPS) core protected by a proprietary polymer-modified cementitious coating (approx. 3/16 inch thick).
  • Thermal Stability: Engineered for zero-gap joint integrity; thermal expansion coefficient optimized to resist shrinking or cracking during extreme North American freeze-thaw cycles.
  • Bonding Technology: Bond ready surface optimized for high-strength architectural masonry adhesives; compatible with EIFS, brick, stucco, and stone substrates.
  • Weight & Structure: 90% lighter than traditional pre-cast concrete (approx. 1/10th the weight), eliminating the need for heavy-duty structural wall reinforcement or mechanical hoisting.
  • Finishing Options: Arrives in a uniform cement-gray finish that acts as a premium masonry primer; compatible with all high-quality exterior acrylic latex paints and textures.
  • Technical Customization: Precision factory-cut to any architectural profile; capable of achieving true arches, ellipticals, and bespoke geometric shapes that traditional materials cannot replicate.
  • Environmental Durability: 100% inorganic and inert; naturally resistant to moisture, wood-boring insects, rot, and UV degradation for a maintenance-free lifecycle.
