Thermal insulation products for buildings - External thermal insulation composite systems with renders (ETICS) - Specification
This document specifies the characteristics and performance for design External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (design ETICS) with rendering systems on thermal insulation products, delivered as a kit by a system holder, and used as thermal insulation for buildings.
This document covers design ETICS kits on walls which are made of masonry (bricks, blocks, stones, etc.) or concrete (cast on site or as prefabricated panels) with or without rendering systems. This document covers ETICS with thermal insulation products made of cellular glass, expanded polystyrene, expanded cork, mineral wool, phenolic foam, rigid polyurethane foam, extruded polystyrene foam or wood fibre as far as they comply with Annex B.
A design ETICS kit comprises a prefabricated insulation product bonded onto the wall, or mechanically fixed using anchors, profiles, etc., or a combination of adhesive and mechanical fixings. The insulation product is faced with a rendering system consisting of one or more layers (site applied), one of which contains reinforcement. The rendering system is applied directly to the insulating panels, without an air gap or disconnecting layer.
This document is not applicable for:
a) Mechanically fixed kits with supplementary adhesive with the mass per unit area of the rendering system of > 40 kg/m2 in end use conditions intended by the system holder and/or mechanical fixed kits with the mass per unit area of the rendering system plus thermal insulation product of > 65 kg/m2 intended by the system holder.
b) Mechanically fixed kits without supplementary adhesive with the mass per unit area of the rendering system of > 30 kg/m2 in end use conditions intended by the system holder and/or mechanical fixed kits with the mass per unit area of the rendering system plus thermal insulation product of > 60 kg/m2 intended by the system holder and/or with a thickness of the thermal insulation product intended by the system holder of > 200 mm. For thermal insulations products with thicknesses ≤ 200 mm fixed with anchors without supplementary adhesive, the bending deformation of the mechanically fixing devices is assumed as negligible.
c) Purely bonded kits with or without supplementary mechanically fixing devices with bonded area (coverage) less than 40 %, intended by the system holder.
d) Mechanically fixed kits with supplementary adhesive with bonded area (coverage) less than 40 %, intended by the system holder.
e) Kits incorporating a thermal insulation product providing a declared thermal resistance of less than 1 m2K/W.

Introduction
This standard covers design External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (design ETICS) with
rendering systems. Design ETICS kits are intended for use as external thermal insulation to the walls of
buildings. The walls are made of masonry (bricks, blocks, stones etc.) or concrete (cast on site or as
prefabricated panels) with or without rendering systems.
The standard describes characteristics and performance of design ETICS kits and marking and labelling
for design ETICS with rendering systems applied to thermal insulation products.
Design ETICS are placed on the market as different kits by a system holder, consisting of selected
components to improve the thermal insulation of buildings’ outside walls. Kits have to be installed
following system holders instructions to achieve the declared performance. They may include ancillary
products. Assembled kits provide protection against weathering and improve the appearance of the
buildings. They do not contribute to the stability of the wall, nor to the air tightness of the building.

4.1 Description of a design ETICS
A design ETICS is defined by the system holder. It consists of
— one base coat,
— thermal insulation product(s) of the same material,
— adhesive(s) without mechanical fixing device(s) or adhesives and mechanical fixing device(s) or
only mechanical fixing device(s),

— reinforcement(s),
— finishing layer(s).
(See Figure 1 — Description of design ETICS and kit in relation to construction works). All combinations
and their characteristics required to form a particular kit intended by the system holder, shall be fully
described by the system holder.
They are assessed according to this standard before being placed on the market.
According to the characteristics and performance of a construction works a designer can then select an
appropriate kit from the design ETICS.

covered by one design ETICS. Some of the components are not mandatory. Commonly only a few of all
possible combinations of the products in box 1 are in visage by a system holder for a particular kit. Only
these combinations belong to the design ETICS. In short, the design ETICS consists of all products and
the intended combinations for kits thereof.
Box 1 contains four kit examples. The short dash line kit is only bonded by adhesive. The straight line
kit includes any kind of components. The grey line and the long dashes kits use reduced sets of
components. These four kit examples are also illustrated in Figure 2 a), b), d) and e).
Box 2 is applicable to construction works. It includes an assembled kit with ancillary products, box 3.
Ancillary products may be mastics, joint-covers, corner stripes, corner profiles, base profiles, fire
barriers, etc. They are necessary to complete a kit on site. Box 4 intends the assembled kit without
ancillary products. It includes the rendering system, box 5. The rendering system is made of the
reinforced base coat, box 6, and the finishing layer, box 7.
NOTE In some cases products of a design ETICS may have additional intended uses.
Ancillary products are used, e.g. to form joints or to achieve continuity or to give specific protection
(mastics, joint-covers, corner stripes, corner profiles, base profiles, fire barriers etc.). They are specified
by the system holder in order to ensure the performance, the safety and the durability of the system
