Introduction
Space to enhance the quality of life
Surface quality as part of a feel-good environment
At the planning stage of a project,
there can be nothing more
reassuring than working together
with a manufacturer whose product
portfolio offers just what is needed
to realise your design ideas. The
plethora of different surface coating
products on the market can be quite
disorientating. A well-structured
system which is also extremely
fl exible is a boon in this situation.
All products from Sto are fi nely
coordinated, offer diverse scope for
combination and come with various
seals of approval. This guarantees
that you are in the right hands,
particularly with regard to the
technical side of interior design.
Ongoing quality
The ongoing development of our
products is a prime concern at Sto.
This guarantees premium quality,
state-of-the-art materials and
application properties. The advantages
are obvious: with Sto, building owners
can rest assured that their investments
is economically viable. And planners
and designers benefi t from the
effi ciency and know-how offered by

tighter cost margins in the building
trade can be coped with more easily
and with less stress.

Introduction
Space + surface = atmosphere
The right system for interiors
The character of an interior is
determined on the one hand by
its spatial proportions and on the
other by the attributes of its
ceiling, walling and fl ooring.
Colour, lightness, texture, fi nish
and depth are just some of the
factors by which the surfaces
which shape the character of
rooms can be defi ned. Sto offers
the right solutions to realise your
visions.
The atmosphere in a room is of such
great importance because we live
and work in buildings and spend a
large portion of our lives indoors.
Interior design today covers a vast
spectrum. With this in mind, the
“Products and systems” section
presents a selection of our coatings –
arranged not in the traditional
manner according to product types
but on the basis of the coatings‘
visual effects: from smooth through
fi ne, rough, coarse to very coarse.
This cross-section of our broad range
will provide you with an idea of the
design scope offered by our
products. Many more fi nishes and

textures are possible, of course –
with virtually no limits on your
creativity. At Sto you will fi nd a
perfectly coordinated set of tools
with which to realise your design
ideas. Let us inspire you! Our
