StoArmat Miral Render System
over StoArmour Facade Panel

A BRANZ appraised high-performance render system providing exceptional crack resistance and weather protection. The system includes a stay-dry sealer for the StoArmour facade panel and uPVC flashings to lock into junctions and joinery forming a neat weathertight seal. The system includes a mineral-basecoat render, followed by StoArmat synthetic render with fibreglass mesh, providing engineered reinforcement to reliably dissipate tensile, seismic and shear stress. The system is finished in your choice of Stolit coloured finishing render and StoColor facade paint or clear sealer, for performance and protection that surpasses the facade durability requirements.

 

Installation is carried out by a Sto Registered Contractor (Licensed Building Practitioner) and comes with the added protection of a StoArmat 15 or 20 Year Warranty with StoService Assurance, to deliver long-term performance.
