What Is EIFS and What Is EIFS Made of?
EIFS was one of the first building systems to meet standards of Continuous Insulation. Since EIFS consists of several layers, it offers strong insulation to the walls of your home or commercial building. Due to the materials used, it also offers high durability, which makes it a popular choice among homeowners and architects. It comprises of three layers:

Benefits of EIFS
Energy Efficiency
Depending on a number of factors, EIFS can reduce air infiltration by as much as 55% compared to standard brick or wood construction.
Durability
Since the systems tend to maintain their original appearance over the years, EIFS only rarely needs painting. On top of that, EIFS has passed the Miami-Dade County Hurricane Test, meaning the hurricane-style weather has no impact on it.
Rich Design Options
Be it a resemblance to stucco or stone or your own design with its unique shape and color, all this is possible thanks to the high design-flexibility of this system.
