ST Silicone Render A range of lightweight silicone renders suitable for use in render only applications or as part of an external wall insulation system. ST Silicone renders are highly durable, resistant to cracking, staying clean and colourfast longer than comparable render solutions. Two textured finishes are available – ST Silkolitt (rolled texture) and ST Silkorill (dragged texture), in a wide range of colours options. Silicone renders provide a high performing, contemporary finish to new-build applications and the re-modelling of existing facades. Applications • Suitable for direct application to solid walls • When used directly on masonry and concrete surfaces, requires ST 703 base coat • Compatible with Alumasc’s Swistherm, Swisrail, Swisslab and Swisspan external wall insulation systems
Performance • BBA approved, fully warranted system with 30 year
life expectancy (when used as part of the Swistherm EWI system)
• Manufactured to ISO9001:2000 and ISO14001:2004
