Facade Coating

Waterproof, self-cleaning & breathable exterior wall coating.
A technically advanced, two-coat coloured, waterproof exterior wall coating which insulates mineral building materials by reducing water absorption by 96%. This has a lifetime expectancy of 25 years and comes with a 10 year manufacturer’s guarantee.

Our Facade Coating offers these key features:

Stay Dry & Warm

Upon application, the exterior wall coating creates a waterproof, superhydrophobic surface known as the ‘lotus effect,’ similar to the lotus leaf’s water-repelling properties. Coated mineral surfaces repel water, causing it to form beads and run off without absorption.

Independent tests show a 93.4% reduction in water absorption, meeting the British standard for water vapor resistance (BS EN ISO 7783:2011). UKAS-accredited tests confirm thermal performance benefits and compliance with EAD 040083-00-0404.

In hygrothermal chamber testing, walls treated with the coating and subjected to heat-rain conditions showed reduced heat loss compared to uncoated walls. Uncoated walls experienced an average increase of 6⁰C in heat loss.

Additionally, the wall coating enhances thermal efficiency, reducing energy consumption and bills by keeping walls dry. Damp walls act as thermal bridges, causing heat to transfer from the inside out twice as quickly as dry walls.

Breathable

Water vapor permeability testing (BS EN ISO 7783:2011) shows minimal impact on substrate diffusion.

The application of Ecoshieldcoating Exterior Facade Coating keeps walls and cavities dry while allowing air and moisture to escape, preserving the building envelope’s breathability. It avoids blocking masonry pores with a thin film, unlike certain stone and brick sealing products. 

Colours

The exterior wall coating is available in a range of pastel shades – for example, Water Lily, Devon Stone, Pebble, Polar White and Cotswold Cream.
