Lightweight, Durable, Affordable, Energy Efficient
"A premium,
high performance finish that's often mistaken for granite. Utilizing
raw materials and design input from literally all corners of the
globe, Dryvit TerraNeo embodies its Latin root - and is truly "new
ground" in exterior wall finish technology."
What is TerraNeo?
"TerraNeo contains natural quartz, minerals and mica, blended together
in an acrylic polymer matrix. Applied to the wall by hand with a
trowel, TerraNeo can be used inside and out and provides a durable,
beautiful and affordably refreshing option for finishing Dryvit
systems, tilt-up concrete, unit masonry, stucco or interior drywall.
"Put simply, TerraNeo looks a lot like granite. Unlike granite,
however, TerraNeo comes without the weight, cost and extensive lead
time. When used as a finish for a Dryvit exterior insulation and
finish system, it's part of a cladding that can be up to 84% more
energy efficient than 6 other commonly used wall systems*."

Create Dazzling Curb Appeal!
"Dryvit is renowned for helping create 'curb appeal'. The use of
special shapes and decorative reveals that create dramatic
architectural details is one of the hallmarks of a Dryvit system.
Today, a wide variety of Dryvit finishes such as TerraNeo, Custom
Brick™, and Lymestone™ allow the architect to create spectacular
designs and details never before possible or affordable with more
conventional materials."
Visual Appeal - "It creates an attractive, unique and
expensive appearance for building exteriors."
Variety - "It can be custom blended to match your specific
design criteria."
Availability - "With suppliers in 120 locations in North
America, TerraNeo can be on your job site in days."
Energy Efficiency - "Dryvit EIFS can significantly reduce
heating and cooling costs for the life of a building."
Value - "TerraNeo reduces the total construction cost because
it is 1/35th the weight of granite. Shipping costs can be much lower
as well."
Taken for Granite.
"TerraNeo contains no pigment. Its coloration is derived entirely from
Dryvit's artistic mixture of natural aggregates and mica. The ten
standard colors shown here are the most popular combinations used by
architects and designers today.
"TerraNeo has the appearance of natural granite and as with all Dryvit
finishes, TerraNeo can be custom blended to suit your taste or meet
your design specifications. Dryvit is able to replicate virtually any
stone sample you send us for reference."
