STO PRODUCTS SELECTED FOR NEW CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL IN DUBLIN

External wall insulation specialist, Sto, has been selected to provide a suite of products for a new 165,000m² hospital in Dublin, Ireland. Scheduled for completion in 2024, the New Children’s Hospital will comprise more than 6000 rooms spread across seven storeys.

Main contractor, BAM – which was responsible for designing, engineering and managing the facade packages – chose Sto products to meet performance requirements set by BDP, a multi-disciplinary practice of architects.

To maximise thermal efficiency and fire protection, the StoTherm Mineral external wall insulation system is being used. The project will also feature the StoSilco silicone resin render and a specialist Sto facade paint to create a colourful and highly-durable exterior that won’t fade.
