Sto Fireblocking features the use of Sto Lamellas, a non-combustible fireblocking product available in various thicknesses to match that of the adjacent foam plastic insulation. The precision cut of Sto Lamellas ensures a seamless transition between the lamellas and foam plastic insulation resulting in a plane surface and uniform finish.

This solution is fully compliant and tested in accordance with NFPA 285 that is adhered to the substrate and therefore penetration-free. It allows architects to design an energy-efficient building envelope compliant with the most stringent building codes from one manufacturer. Plus, with Sto’s innovative solutions, a wide range of aesthetic options can be achieved.​
