LESS TIME
Greatly reduce the time of building envelope installation and make the most of your construction calendar.
LESS WEIGHT
Reduce the cost of your project by eliminating scaffolding and other complications of working at high elevations.
LESS MANPOWER
Our panels are produced in temperature-controlled factories, in full compliance with codes for testing, building and energy efficiency.
STOPANEL PREFAB
Sto Panel Technology is a smarter form of wall design and construction through partnerships forged between leading contractors, fabricators, and Sto Corp. – the world’s number one manufacturer of building envelope solutions. Built off-site in certified manufacturing facilities, the panels come with the studs, sheathing, air barrier, insulation board, and an assortment of finishes already assembled. Depending on the preferences of the owner, they can come in a variety of finishes such as EIFS, metal panel, fiber cement, masonry, and precast finishes (and can even come with windows already installed). With StoPanel Panelization, projects can be completed in a fraction of the time.

NEW StoCast & StoColor
The beauty of brick in a more sustainable product
StoCast Brick is the ideal solution when the project calls for either a traditional or customized “classic” brick look.
- Beautiful natural brick appearance
- Flexible shapes to achieve unique designs
- Proven performance with over 20 years of project use
- 30 standard colors plus project-specific colors, patterns and textures
- Significantly less energy used for manufacturing and transportation compared to traditional brick, no dust, and silica-free
- Acrylic-based bricks and mortar – reduced risk of efflorescence
- Preformed shapes are easy and fast to install, no special tools needed to cut the bricks

BRICK COLOR COLLECTION
StoCast Wood offers an authentic wood grain texture and appearance and is the ideal solution when the project calls for a wood look.
- 45 different grain patterns for a natural wood appearance
- Flexible planks to achieve unique designs
- Stain available in 15 standard colors, or coat with any of Sto’s high performance coatings
- Reduced energy used for manufacturing and transportation compared to natural or engineered wood
- Durable, reinforced acrylic planks – won’t chip, fade or warp
- Preformed planks adhesively attached to the substrate – easy and fast to install without fasteners, easy to cut with cutters.

STAIN OPTIONS
StoColor® Metallic offers the ability to achieve a metallic panel look with a variety of color and texture options. All 15 standard colors can be applied over smooth or textured surfaces offering the versatility to create a custom look while utilizing standard finishes. The coating system features StoColor Metallic Top Coat, a lightweight, breakthrough new acrylic-based coating with metallic effect pigments, applied over StoColor Metallic Base. It’s the combination of the two layers that creates the luminous depth, allowing subtle light-induced color shifts to produce a dynamic metal look. Used over prepared vertical, above grade StoTherm® ci Systems, and interior drywall surfaces, it offers the aesthetic appeal of metal panels at a fraction of the cost.

Load Bearing Panels
Our Prefabricated Load Bearing cold-formed steel wall panels are comprised of axial and lateral bearing members, framed openings, shear walls, exterior sheathing, posts, floor systems, etc. Our load-bearing panels can be combined with most exterior envelope options, windows and door blocking, and more. Benefits of prefabrication include improved quality control, a reduction in on-site labor, limited susceptibility to inclement weather, and a significantly accelerated construction schedule.
The completed exterior panels allow the building to become weather tight much faster which prevents unnecessary weather damage to the building, reduces scaffolding cost, and expedites the MEP rough-in schedule. Other advantages come in the form of safety outcomes and quality of the finish due to the skilled tradesmen working at ground level as opposed to in a lift or scaffolding that can present a series of challenges.
THE PROCESS
1. Early Involvement
Early involvement begins with a feasibility review of the project. We will review the project model and assess for prefabrication opportunities.
2. Early Review
After review, panel breaks can be created and further analysis takes place to decide on the proper support, dimensions, and details.
3. Panel Creation
CFMF shop drawings are incorporated, fabrication tickets are created, trailer load schedules are built, and in-house fabrication occurs priors to shipment and panel installation.
4. Installation
Panels are loaded on trailers and shipped to the jobsite for in time delivery. Panels are set in place and the TCM team installs.
