Evidence Base

Category estimate

No product evidence is attached to this generic material, so nothing on this card is numerical. The guidance below is qualitative — an AI-assisted category profile — for early design discussion, not for figures.

Next step: request a current product EPD or manufacturer carbon declaration, or swap in a branded product that holds one.

What's missing (3)
  • No current product EPD is recorded.
  • No quantified carbon result is recorded.
  • No product-specific circularity or material-health claims are recorded.

Service Life — the B4 Replacement Input

40 years · basis not recorded

≈2 installations over a 60-year building study period.

B4 (replacement) follows the building, not the product: an assessor multiplies replacement cycles by project quantities. This record supplies the service life and does not compute B4.

Design & Specification Notes

External wall insulation with reinforced render finish; Sto-type system with full RAL colour range.

Typical Uses

  • Facade cladding
  • Weather protection
  • External accents

Key Performance

Weather-resistant finish for facade exposure.

Specification Actions

  • Provide an EPD (EN 15804) or verified embodied carbon figure (A1–A3), and state the life-cycle stages covered.
  • Verify insulation board composition and climate impact
  • Confirm mesh and basecoat are low-cement

Indicative Health & Indoor Air

medium Risk
  • vocs
  • biocides

Render may contain biocides. EPS/PIR boards have low emissions once installed. External use minimises impact.
