Benefits and Features of StoCast Brick
StoCast Brick resin cast shapes provide architects, building owners, and contractors with several benefits: aesthetic versatility, sustainability, fast and straightforward installation, low maintenance, durability, and code compliance.
Design Freedom
The StoCast Brick Color Collection offers 30 standard colors but also project-specific colors, patterns, and textures that allow for a diverse range of brickwork design options. StoCast Brick also comes in three flexible shapes to achieve curved surfaces: flats, outside corners, and lintels. Sto’s online visualization tool, StoInspire, allows a user to apply selected Sto aesthetic surfaces and colors – including StoCast Brick – to building models. Create your own design by clicking here.
Sustainability
Thin, lightweight StoCast Brick uses significantly less energy for manufacturing and transportation, reduces waste, and conserves more natural resources than traditional brick. It only takes one truck to transport 60k+ ft2 of StoCast Bricks compared to 15 trucks to transport 60k+ ft2 of conventional brick. Also, StoCast Brick lacks dust and silica which makes it safe to handle.
Durable
Sto manufactures StoCast Bricks with acrylic polymers, which produce freeze/thaw, UV, and crack resistance in addition to superior flexural strength.
Easy to Install
Prefabricated StoCast Brick offers several features that lessen reliance on skilled labor and quicken installation time:
- Work well with fast-to-install prefabricated construction.
- StoCast Brick can be installed on interior and exterior walls, soffits, on many of Sto’s engineered cladding systems, concrete masonry, concrete, and stucco walls.
- Brick resin cast shapes improve job site efficiency by enabling one trade to install multiple cladding solutions over the same building envelope which eliminates material compatibility issues and transitions.
- Lightweight resin-cast brick shapes are easy to carry and handle.
- Straightforward to apply, brick resin shapes are adhered and do not need fasteners and anchors.
- Bricks are easily cut to size with shears.
- Silica-free, brick resin cast shapes help create a safer job site environment.
Low-Maintenance
StoCast Bricks with organic mortar reduce the risk of efflorescence associated with Portland cement-based masonry mortars.

Thoroughly tested resin bricks comply with current building codes, including NFPA 268, NFPA 285, ASTM E84, and ASTM E119.
