INNOVATIONS

Roto Fix

The Insulation within an EWI system is often mechanically fixed with a cementitious adhesive. However, as with all industries, manufacturers are striving for improvements to their systems.

Roto Fix is a patented fastener solution that can create a cavity without the need of timber or metal battens. This can also alleviate problems occurring from an uneven background or to achieve Architectural features such as curves.

STO Turbo Fix

STO Turbo fix offers an adhesive only fixing option, eliminating continuous drilling and subsequent vibration and noise issues during installation.
