StoTherm Wood is an external wall insulation system based on wood-fibre insulation panels, designed for use in both new-build and refurbishment projects. The system integrates insulation, fixing, reinforcement, and render layers to form a continuous facade build-up that improves thermal performance while maintaining vapour permeability.

The use of wood-fibre insulation supports a bio-based material approach, with timber sourced from sustainably managed forests (PEFC-certified), and contributes to moisture regulation within the wall assembly. Components of the system are associated with the Blue Angel eco-label, and environmental product data is available for key elements, supporting assessment within broader sustainability frameworks.
