In modern external insulation and finish systems (EIFS), glass mesh fabric is one of the key materials. Synthomer is the market leader for EIFS mesh fabric binders, and we supply a wide range of products for open mesh impregnation.

From soft to stiff touch and anything in between, our products can be customised to provide the desired feel to the finished glass fibre fabric. In addition, our products support compliance with the ETAG 004 standard for use in certified EIFS.

Our patented LITEX™ Shield XSBR technology platform supports builders by improving products such as glass fibre and roofing felt, in mechanical stability, chemical resistance and waterproofing properties.

LITEX™ Shield is free from formaldehyde and has low volatile organic compound (VOC) content. Fast drying, it helps increase productivity and reduce energy consumption. And by helping people to insulate buildings better, it contributes to lower energy consumption and a reduced carbon footprint for consumers too.
