EPSITEC
Developed exclusively by WBS, the EPSITEC
system has been designed to satisfy the need for an insulated
render system, incorporating
a drainage cavity.
Initially developed for the new build market, the EPSITEC
system provides an ideal solution for PRC and system built
properties, where fixing into the existing structure can
prove problematic.
By fixing the Epsitec rails to the existing sound structure
or columns, it is possible to eliminate the requirement
to drill and mechanically fix directly into the concrete
panels, the method of which can often prove difficult to
achieve adequate fixing strength or cause damage to the
substructure.


Once the rails have been fixed in place, insulation boards
span the gap and are fixed securely onto the columns or
alternatively directly into the rail itself. The systems
allows for a wide range of insulants of varying thicknesses
to be used to help meet or exceed current building regulations
and U-value calculations.
Following full insulation of the elevation,
the system is finally completed via the use of a wide selection
of WBS renders and finishes, which gives the completed project
an attractive, hard-wearing & weatherproof finish.
All in all, the Epsitec system provides
an ideal lightweight economical solution for low, medium
and high rise construction that eliminates the need for
expensive structural repairs and / or removal of sheeting
or panels which realistically assist with the overall insulating
properties of the structure.
