Station 2: StoPanel Sample Wall
At this stop, you’ll see our Sto Panel sample wall showing some of the wide ranges of exterior finishes available for our wall panels. Sto Panel Technology allows prefabricated panels to be finished in nearly any cladding the project requires. Available finishes include: EIFS, thin brick veneers, metal panels, composite materials, and more. These factory-applied finishes are fully engineered and tested as part of the panel system, ensuring they meet building envelope performance and warranty requirements.
The sample wall demonstrates how the finish is integrated with the panel – from the air and weather barrier, insulation, and base layers to the exterior finishes. Finishes are applied under controlled conditions with proper temperature, no rain and no dust, for optimal curing and adhesion. This means fewer touch-ups in the field and a durable façade from day one. Additionally, having the exterior finish pre-installed speeds up on-site work. When panels arrive finished, you avoid extended scaffolding time and weather delays that often come with
traditional exterior trades. In short, Sto Panel prefabrication offers architectural versatility along with the efficiency of panelization, delivering a complete wall system that is ready to install.
