Fiberglass Exterior Insulation Finishing System (EIFS) Mesh is a woven mesh for cement stucco or other EIFS assembly. Embedded into the base coat of a stucco application, this durable and impact-resistant woven fiberglass mesh provides crack resistance and reinforcement.
Fiberglass mesh keeps the EIFS resilient by preventing damage and protecting the exterior wall from moisture infiltration and mold.
Durable and impact resistant
Alkali resistant material won’t shrink or tear
Polymer coated leno weave for maximum breathability
Lightweight at 5.08 oz. Per sq. meter.
Flame retardant and non-adhesive fabric
Available in three sizes for convenience and flexibility

An EIFS is a type of building cladding that covers exterior walls with a finished surface that insulates and provides water resistance to the material underneath, thanks to its construction out of composite materials like expanded polystyrene (EPS) and an embedded fiberglass mesh for stucco.
Fiberglass is incorporated into EIFS mesh due to its excellent tensile strength, durability, flexibility and resistance to corrosion and UV damage. Integrating a woven fiberglass mesh into an EIFS can:
Fiberglass mesh is embedded in the base coat of EIFS or cementitious stucco to provide structural support and flexibility, helping to prevent cracking and improving durability.
Some Exterior Insulation Finishing Systems (EIFS) mesh products, like Grip-Rite® Fiberglass EIFS Mesh, are flame retardant.
Yes, fiberglass mesh used in Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems (EIFS) is considered safe when installed correctly and according to manufacturer specifications.
