An External Insulated And Fixed System (EIFS) and method for making the same.
The method provides a cost effective procedure for constructing an EIFS that can
meet current hurricane high impact test protocol, especially for non-combustible
EIFS "Systems". A reinforcing high impact layer of fiber glass mesh is eliminated,
and a high-density compression molded expandable polystyrene board is provided
that yields significantly improved impact resistance.
