Vetotherm AFA (Facade Anchors) 

A facade anchor (dowel) with a plastic nail for additional mechanical strengthening of the thermal insulation system with slabs of EPS and XPS.

Vetotherm ACP( Corner Profile with Mesh) 

Angular plastic profile with integrated alkali-resistant mesh is used to more easily and properly forming 90-degree angles and for reinforcing all window or door corners, edges, and jambs in the contact insulation system – ETICS.

Vetotherm ABP (Base Profile LU) 

A base profile without a drip ledge is used for ending/closing up insulating material at its sides or for closing the system in its top part. This profile cannot be used in situations where rainwater drainage is required.

Vetotherm AWP (Window Reveal Profile) 

Window reveals profile with fiberglass reinforcement mesh for the flexible junction of the window or door frame with plaster/ render in the contact insulation system – ETICS.

Uses

  • Facade anchors are used to fixing Vetotherm EPS (thermal insulation boards) on concrete and light aerated concrete, solid and hollow concrete applications, and bricks.
  • Corner Profile reinforcement of window or door corners, edges, and jambs.
  • Base Profiles are perfect structural and visual finish and closure of the system.
  • Window reveal creates a flexible junction between the contact insulation system and the window or door frame.

Advantages

  • Mechanical strengthening of the thermal insulation system- ETICS by using anchors.
  • Base Profiles protects the system against mechanical damage.
  • Corner profile protects the corners against mechanical damage, prevents hairline cracking, creates an ideally straight corner.
  • Corner profile is without exposed edge – used under plaster.

Usage Instructions

Start anchoring Vetotherm EPS boards a minimum of 48 hours after sticking the boards to allow the adhesive to dry completely. Vetotherm AFA (anchors) should be mounted according to a diagram depending on the height of the building, the region, and the strength of the wind (refer to Saveto ETICS guide).

If Vetotherm EPS has a thickness exceeding 8 cm, firstly, you need to make a hole of 2 cm depth with a cutter and then, in this hole, drill an opening for the screw anchor. Then, after the mounting of the dowels, fill the hole with a polystyrene cap.

After the completion of the anchoring, cover the heads of the dowels with Saveto Vetotherm Flex to flush with the level of the boards.
