DKS System

DKS system consists of applying Dekton 4 or 8 mm onto a finished EIFS (External Insulation Finishing System)/ETICS (External Thermal Insulation composite system).

EIFS/ETICS are used both in refurbishment and new construction over solid walls as a façade system with continuous insulation, thus improving the energy efficiency and reducing thermal bridges, besides improving the façade waterproofing.

Dekton® 4 or 8 mm. can be used as cladding for ETICS/EIFS with the following indications:

1.- Complete system must be supplied and guaranteed by the ETICS/EIFS supplier.

2.- Supplier must indicate the maximum tile size and weight allowed, as well restrictions on the use of dark colors in case of cladding onto EPS or XPS insulation types.

3.- The adhesive for bonding Dekton® 4 or 8mm to the system must be validated by the same supplier.

4.- For Dekton® installation, all instructions from the system supplier shall be followed, including the joints design between panels.

5.- The use of mechanical safety fasteners, if necessary, shall also be indicated by the ETICS/EIFS system supplier.
