This panel also couples a 2 inch thick exterior foam which adds an additional R-10 insulation to the house with a continuous air barrier helping minimize moisture as well as air leakage making it a more energy efficient exterior layer.

By combining these items together, it also means only having to put up one item instead of the typical 4, making installation faster.
StoneCoat also manufactures a durable exterior stucco-like plaster material from natural limestone and eco-friendly materials that also creates a barrier to prevent water intrusion into the plaster but is also breathable.
