01 Replacing Hail- & Bird-Damaged EPS/XPS Foam Trims with 20 mm Class A1 Mineral Profiles
Across thousands of renovated residential and hotel facades, mortar-coated EPS/XPS foam jambs and cornices deteriorate within a few winters—suffering hail punctures, woodpecker nesting holes, mitre-corner cracking and dangerous molten droplet hazards during window-head fires. Machined from solid 20 mm autoclaved fibre cement, SF-JAMB and SF-CORNICE profiles deliver stone-like impact resistance and EN 13501-1 Class A1 non-combustibility (verify uncoated TDS).
- Choose flat (SF-SV-FLAT), 45° chamfered (SF-SV-45) or CNC-routed classical jambs (SF-SV-PS01 through SF-SV-PS04) to match urban facade character.
- Define horizontal floor lines and parapet crowns using profiled 20 mm cornices (SF-CORNICE, SF-KS-01, SF-KS-02).
- Crisp machined grooves and edges hold alkali-resistant acrylic exterior paint cleanly without mesh-coat blistering.
