Render

Sto is the market leader in manufacturing cement-free sustainable renders, plasters and façade finishes. Our renders and plasters come in a variety of textures and finishes they can be combined with StoRend anti-crack levelling coats and to our external thermal insulation systems. Bespoke options are available in the StoSignature range.

Texture: We offer different grain sizes from 1-6mm which come as stippled, fine, coarse and rough textures.

Colour: At our showroom in Clerkenwell we offer a range of 450 through-tinted samples. Additional application of metallic sheen and added particles increase the design possibilities.
See an overview of the StoColor range here.

Technical considerations: Available with Silicone "StoSilco" and acrylic resin "Stolit" based binders as well as with Lotus effect technology known as "StoLotusan" each binder has its own technical advantages.

Crack-resistant build-ups: Our range of cement-free build ups, which include synthetic reinforcing coats offer up to 15 times higher degrees of crack resistance compared to cement-based finishes and offer additional reassurance.

Meet the Architect: Sir Peter Cook on ECOLA and innovative uses of render and plaster

“competitions are very useful creatively because they encourage you to consolidate your ideas and they encourage the young to break out…”

ECOLA is the ‘The European Competition for the innovated use of render & plaster’ and consists of a juried European competition, workshops and conference, exploring future possibilities for render and plaster in architecture and celebrating its endless expressive possibilities.
