Sto Corp. Expands Stucco System Warranty by Exclusive Joint Program with Structa Wire Corp.


ATLANTA - (August 7, 2009) Sto Corp., the innovative world leader in cladding, coating, and restoration systems, has announced an exclusive joint warranty program with Structa Wire Corp., a British Columbia manufacturer of welded wire products for the lath and plaster industry.

Key Structa Wire products can now be covered in a StoPowerwall Stucco System warranty, which further extends Sto's ability to offer a more extensive systems solution in the stucco market.

"With this exclusive joint program, StoPowerwall stucco systems can now include the stucco reinforcement as part of the system warranty", said Bryce Brandon, Sto Corp. Market Manager. "This program extends Sto's industry leadership in providing practical and effective solutions for our markets."

Frank Arnold, National Sales Manager for Structa Wire, stated: "Structa Wire products are innovative, offering many advantages over standard reinforcement products. We offer lower installed cost, reduced cracking [due to innovative self-furring crimp], no curvature memory (rolled products), and easy and fast installation."

The Chrom-EX(TM) versions of Structa Wire products offer excellent corrosion resistance, which is especially important for coastal/marine climate zones. The Structa Wire products eligible for this joint warranty program include Structalath Twin Trac, Structalath Twin Trac with Chrom-EX(TM), Megalath, Megalath with Chrom-EX(TM), and V-Truss Corner with Chrom-EX(TM).

"We are looking forward to this new relationship," said Jeff Sacks, President of Structa Wire. "Structa Wire products and the StoPowerwall System are a good match allowing for a complete warranty opportunity protecting the wall and the project with the best in the industry."
