President at U-STUCCO™ Green Building Materials - Newport Beach, California, United States
Meet U-STUCCO™, world's lightest one-coat stucco that is revolutionizing the stucco industry with its thermal, fire, acoustic and water insulation properties. It's an ultra light-weight (7 times lighter than a conventional stucco) hydrophobic, high crack and corrosion resistant, UV reflective, ready-to-use powder-mix product. It provides fire resistance (2hr rated @1200°C/ 2192°F) as well as thermal (R 2.2 per inch), water and acoustic insulation (38 dB).U-STUCCO's simple one-coat application process greatly reduces time and labor expenses and renders traditional 3-coat application obsolete. U-STUCCO™ can be applied in a single pass of up to 1" to nearly any substrate, including plywood, OSB, concrete, masonry, AAC, steel, EPS, XPS, ICF and plastic substrates.U-STUCCO™ is ideal for achieving superior energy efficiency. It can be used in conjunction with EPS, XPS, ICF to create wall assemblies with higher insulation R values and improved crack and water-resistance complying with California Title 24 code helping you build sustainable living spaces.U-STUCCO™ may also be used over wood or gypsum backing and as a scratch and brown coat application for a conventional stucco system. U-STUCCO™ is 99% inorganic and contains 40% post-consumer recycled content making it a true green product. It is a class 1 non-flammable material therefore it doesn't burst into flame or emit any toxic gas when exposed to fire. It allows your building to breathe and prevents mold and moisture from occuring.
