    EWI-220 EPS Basecoat Adhesive 

    EWI Pro's EWI-220 EPS Basecoat Adhesive (25kg) is our most popular EPS compatible adhesive. It is a dual-purpose product, used to fix EPS insulation to substrates and also as part of the basecoat reinforcement layer. Once dry, the adhesive provides a strong, flexible and waterproof layer. Being dual-purpose, this product allows installers to have only one type of bag on-site, meaning less wastage.  The preparation process for EWI-220 is the same for both basecoat reinforcement layers and for fixing EPS insulation boards to the substrate. The following substrates are suitable for the application of EPS insulation boards using EWI-220: ordinary concrete, walls of ceramic and silicate elements, concrete, light-aggregate and cellular concrete with an untreated surface, plastered, painted or textured.

    Application

    You should mix EWI-220 dry mix with clean, cold water (5.8 litres) prior to use. We suggest using a large bucket and adding the water prior to the EPS Basecoat Adhesive. You can use a paddle mix to mix EWI-220 with the water until you achieve an even consistency mortar. Once the EPS Basecoat Adhesive has been mixed, leave the bucket for 5-10 minutes and then remix using the paddle mix – the adhesive is then ready for use. If using the EPS Basecoat Adhesive for the basecoat layer, apply it using a 10mm notched trowel to the substrate. Next, embed overlapping pieces of Fibreglass Mesh; the mesh should sit within the middle of the basecoat layer. Once embedded, the basecoat layer should be 6mm in total. When applying EWI-220 to the back of EPS insulation boards, you can apply adhesive in two waits. Either apply EWI-220 to the whole surface of the EPS board using a notched trowel or apply it to the perimeter of the insulation board with 3 dabs across the middle. If using Mineral Wool, then EWI-225 (Premium Basecoat) must be used instead of EWI-220. Please note: this product should not be used as a render-only basecoat onto masonry. Please use EWI-225 for this purpose.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    EPS Basecoat is a dual-purpose product. This means that it can be used as both a basecoat for the reinforcement layer and as an adhesive specifically for fixing EPS boards to the walls. This enables installers to have only one type of bag on-site, resulting in less wastage.

    The following substrates are suitable for the application of EPS insulation boards using EWI-220: ordinary concrete, walls of ceramic and silicate elements, concrete, light-aggregate and cellular concrete with an untreated surface, plastered, painted, or textured.

    You should mix approximately 6 litres of water per 25kg bag of EPS Basecoat. There is a usability time after mixing with water of approximately 2 hours at a temperature of +20°C

    No, EPS Basecoat is specifically designed for EPS boards as it has excellent adhesion to polystyrene. For other insulation boards, please use Premium Basecoat.

    No, EPS Basecoat should NOT be used for the reinforcement layer in a render-only system onto masonry. Instead, you should use Premium Basecoat.

    Brill adh stuck fast to the EPS boards on the concrete. Two jobs in one bag is mint saves a faff on site proper good kit. It did clump up when mixing sometimes and I had to chuck in more than 5.8L water for a smooth spread. Coverage felt short too maybe only hitting 3m2 a bag. Delivery driver was careful. Good value for money but premium stuff yields better. Four stars for saving site hassle.

    Been using this for a few years now every time I have an EWI job that is eps and it never disappoints. It's nice to work with and I like how it can be used as an adhesive and as a reinforcement layer. If you have an eps job coming up I recommend you try this.

    Right then, running this 220 was mint. The dual-purpose bag for the boards and the basecoat? Absolutely brilliant, that. Shaved loads of faffing about moving separate tubs and cut down on waste, which is handy. Mix consistency was spot on, didn't lump up, and the usability window was bang on. We were sticking EPS onto some rough old concrete and it grabbed solid instantly. We used the perimeter-dab method—rock solid every time. It takes the mesh no bother when basecoating; came out perfect and felt strong and flexible when set. Coverage rates were decent. Way simpler and better value than messing around with those two-bag systems (like Weber). Great trade kit, dead easy to work with.

    Best two-in-one product for EPS. The sheer logistical saving of only having one type of bag on site for both sticking the board and the basecoat reinforcement is a total no-brainer. The mix is the key; it hits that good workabl consistency quickly and you sn't fighting the paddle mixer for 10 minutes. Grab was exceptional on some iffy painted surfaces. Honestly impressed with the pull, much stronger than some alternatives. Went on easy with the trowel, cured fine, coverage was exactly as stated on the bag. Coudn't fault it for the price. Use this stuff, save your forearms some pain.

    Decent gear, bond is great, cant knock that. One bag saves faff on site. Felt really snappy when it warmed up though. Water mix needs less volume for the perimeter dabs, had to leave it kicking longer than 10 mins. Coverage was slightly short of the 3.5m extsuperscript{2}.

    Bang on for EPS! Used this EWI-220 for a full system onto light-aggregate block. The biggest win is definitely the dual-purpose—only having one type of bag on site cuts the wastage and faff massively. This product genuinely gives you peace of mind because you know the adhesive is also forming that strong, waterproof basecoat. Top value against what the big competitors charge for separate kits. Mixes sound if you remember the 10 min rest. Grab was excellent for dabbing the EPS boards onto the concrete, absolutely did not sag vertical. Getting the mesh bedded into the 6mm layer was no bother, spread evenly and quick. The coverage rates were decent and the working time (pot life) was perfect for us. Brill kit, and the delivery driver was actually helpful with the heavy 25kg bags too. Will stick with this 220 going forward.

We fixed the EPS boards tight and it didn't sag when we troweled the basecoat on. Mesh goes in spot on. The only thing which could be better is that you still need the 225 if there's any rockwool on site, but for the quality and 2-hour window on this stuff, 5 stars for value and performance. Great stuff!

    Cracking stuff for EWI. Mixes up proper, lovely consistency for dabbing EPS boards and it really bites onto blockwork. Compared to some of the others that are near double the price this EWI-220 is unbeatable value and performs just as well. It handles brilliantly when troweling on the basecoat layer too and lets you embed the mesh quickly. Saved a massive amount of fqaff only needing the one dual-purpose bag for the job—less site clutter, less lifting. Sets quick enough but gives you tjhat working window for final alignment. Will be using it again every time, best basecoat I've tried. Cheers to the lad who loaded the van too, very efficient.

    Proper spot on stuff for EPS. Mixed up quick dead easy consistency. Used the perimeter/dab method to fix the boards and it flew up; held its stand perfect didn't sag which means zero waste—so the coverage was genuinely economical. The dual-purpose aspect saves having a load of extra muck on site compared to others great value. We put the basecoat mesh straight into it, sets solid. This EWI-220 is top quality, sorted the whole job.

    Brill 2-in-1 gear. Used this 220 for fixing the EPS onto untreated concrete, stuck fast immediately. The dual-purpose element saved me having to order/mix a separate basecoat mix, which is a massive win on site efficiency—no wasting time or lugging extra 25kg bags around. Mixed up smooth and it didn't flash off too quick; easy to get the mesh properly embedded without rushing the trowelling. Also good call out on the description about switching to 225 if you're on Mineral Wool; appreciated that bit of info. Highly recommended for EPS. Proper job.

    solid Adh. Very Good Product, no doubt. The dual-purpose function is spot on; saves lugging different bags onto the scaffolding. Adhered fine to the concrete (using EWI-301 primer) and even managed a decent bond to the treated timber which isn't listed as suitable. Once set, the finish is super strong and durable. Only knocking a star because it's slightly pricey, and I had a nightmare with the cold-weather workflow. We were applying at +5 C and it was noticeably sluggish getting that initial grab—feels like paying a premium but getting slower performance when you need it most. Also, needed more water than the 5.8L stated, and mixing was hard work. That 10-min wait between mixes slows things down. Good material. The working time was decent and I'll still buy again because it does its job perfectly.

    Solid gear. Dual-purpose EPS/Basecoat is great for efficiency keeps the site tidy. Holds the EPS boards firmly on concrete even stuck okay to the old painted render which was a relief. Trusted qualoty. BUT cleanup of the paddel mix was a right faff, very sticky material. Finish texture is also rougher than my previous adh brand. Needed almost a full second 5.8L bucket of water to get the correct troweling consistency too. I wish they did a 10kg bag option for fiddly small extensions.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 Stars) **Saved loads of time. Sticks like the clappers and a good key for the render. Sorted.** Got this batch quickly. Driver parked the pallet right where I needed it which helps massively. This EWI-220 is bang on for pure EPS runs. The biggest pro is the **dual-purpose job**. Means you’re only lugging one kind of bag around the site for fixing the boards (perimeter and dabs job done) and then putting the scrim on top. Saved half a day of clearing up different specs. Preparation was the same mix ratio (5.8L worked spot on) which cuts confusion. The adhesive gripped the concrete and the old ceramic bits on the gable wall straight off. No slump or issue working in the heat. It trowels out lovely for the basecoat—got the mesh embedded and hit that 6mm layer proper tidy. Makes a really solid waterproof skin once cured. The final basecoat takes the subsequent render coats like a dream. At this price point (£13.47 ex VAT) when you look at how much other brands charge just for the second-stage adhesive this EWI-220 is easily the best value for an EPS system. Brill! Will definitely order this again.

Then, when I fially used it, the claimed coverage rate was useless—burned through the tubs too quick! And the biggest shocker? Minor weekend drizzle had patches lifting and flaking. The claim tnhis is "waterproof" is propetr garbage. Remedial work now starts Monda. Never again.

    Proper solid stuff. Had the rig sorted quick. Honestly, I’ll be stocking this over others where I can. Having one 25kg bag that does the fixing and the basecoat for the poly boards is a massive win on site kit and time, definitely simplifying my material management. Mixed up exactly as it said—dump the water, leave it ten minutes, give it a whack with the paddle, and it was spot on for the trowel, perfect consistency. Ued it across old concrete and tricky painted substrates and the hold was faultless. No sagging, just stood up no problem. Scrim embedded cleanly and the 6mm layegr felt proper secure. Had the job sorted hours earlier than scheduled. Value for this performance and versatility is spot on. Great bit of kit.

    Sorted an exterior re-clad last week and used the EWI-220 across the board. Dead impressed, mate. Honestly, having one bag for sticking the foam and bedding the mesh in has been a massive time-saver—no more double-ordering or sweating over having too much of one product left over. It felt rock solid bonding the EPS straight away; no wrestling with the boards falling off. The mix was spot on straight away, dead easy to paddle up without turning it into sloppy seconds or having loads of lmups to pick out. It spread beautifully smkoth onto the board, and the usability time was spot on for my pace—not too fast where you’re scrapping loads, but it set hard fast enough once it was on. Saved a small fortune on wastage too, which is always welcome. Will definitely recommend this stuff, it just works without all the faff you get with some of those other two-part render systems. Brill stuff.

    brill stuff. It's your adhesive AND your basecoat, so that dual-purpose splution is a massive win for site logistics and stock control. Mixed up pretty nicely, though I needed a small touch more water than the specs suggested to get the perfect 'peanut butter' consistency. Held strong on the concrete substrate, and it worked excellently embedding the mesh centrally for the basecoat layer. Losing one star mainly down to site efficiency. That mandated 5-10 minute stand time when remixing feels dead long on a fast-paced job. Also, the coverage was slightly tight; I found I used more product per square metre thna expected for fixing the EPS, which meant reordering quicker than budgeted. It was good value compared to other trade brands though, definitely a sound adhesive and key component for the system.

Mixed it easily and the consistency was spot-on, really easy to trowel out, didn't slump at all. It grabbed the EPS boards instantly and holds them rock solid. Crucially, the dual-purpose saved me from needing two bags on site—less waste and less hassle. It spread nicely and the basecoat came out to the specified 6mm thickness perfectly. Performs better than competitor stuff I’ve tried. Won't be using anything else now. Amazing.

    strong stuff. EWI-220 did the job well, used it for both the EPS adh fixing and the basecoat skim. Great grab, gives a solid finish that cures well. Only real snag was the working time (pot life) seemed less than the 2 hours noted, felt quicker, which meant mixing up smaller batches on site and re-stirring took a bit longer than budgeted. Also, getting that basecoat dead on 6mm was proper hard work. Otherwise, sound performance and would buy again for EPS. Cheers.

    absolutely fuming over this 220 used it for the basecoat and mesh layer on the EPS following all the curing guides. after 1 week IT STARTED BLEEDING a nasty yellowish stain right thru the final topcoat render layer. WORST. BASECOAT. EVER. not only is the look RUINED but i have to spend days stripping and recoating the whole wall now which means 2 days lost profit for one facade because of cheap material. do not make this mistake get the PREMIUM basecoat trust me this budget cement will screw you.

You buy EWI adhesive to get on with the job, not phone support to find out the 5.8 litres figure.

    The EPS stick is solid right enough I'll give it that. But the mixing is heavy work mate way too dusty and awkward to get the right water ratio. Usability time felt closer to 90 mins not 2 hours, that caused proper wastage on site. Had to chase CS just to track the delivery, too. Could be better, the faff just raises the final job cost.

    Brilliant kit, used as adhesive and basecoat. Stuck the EPS dead on the wall, no sag and great grab. Flexibility is superb keeps the system sound.

    awful bloody rubbish! the 25kg bag ripped clean open during transit wasting the load what a nightmare. after salvaging enough the product itself is terrible. 5.8 litres gives a soupy mess that ceacks like river mud when drying. it set far too qhickly but still remained soft underneath. wasted a full day trying to use this absolute dtoss. switch to cerexsit or sika.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Proper job. Switched entirely to EWI-220 now for all my standard EPS applications. Saved loads of faff not having to order separate adhesive and basecoat—that streamlining alone is good value. Easy to mix up the mixing ratios gave a perfect batch every time. Trowelled out beautifully great spreadability and those EPS boards adhered dead securely to the concrete sub-straight without any sag or slip. Two hours working time felt about right. It provides excellent flexibility and holds up perfectly against the bad weather conditions. Strong gear. Highly recommend this product.

    Utter chaos from ordering to application. Delivery was wefeks late and unprofessional. The dry mix felt old clumpec up and set rock ard on the hawk in less than 60 mins. Didn't stick the EPS boards correctly. You waste money saving a fiver. Total shamblse. AVOID.

    brill dual-purpose ADH. Handy only needing one bag for fixing EPS and basecoat. Consistency was spot on *after* the re-mix, but definitely felt like it needed a bit longer than the clock says to get ready. Great quality for the price though.

    Top quality stuff. The dual-purpose meant only one bag needed on site, massive time-saver. Mixes up dead easy and stays workable for the full two hours. It held the EPS boards fast, proper grip on the cellular concrete wall. Trowelled out smoorh over the mesh. Better coverage than the spec says, too. Brill.
