Exterior Insulation Finish System (EIFS)
EEWS successfully pioneered manufacturing and installing this lightweight economical system in the early 1970s. EIFS provides creative flexibility for architects and designers while being the lowest cost, most thermally efficient system available in the market. Our skilled craftsmen produce EIFS panels in a wide array of colors, textures, patterns, sizes, and finishes that can replicate the appearance of Limestone, granite, and brick.

FAQ
What is EIFS?
What is EIFS?
Exterior Insulation and Finish System (EIFS) is a lightweight, energy-efficient cladding system that provides continuous insulation and a durable, decorative finish. It’s widely used in modern construction for its flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
How does EIFS improve energy efficiency?
How does EIFS improve energy efficiency?
EIFS offers continuous insulation, reducing thermal bridging and enhancing the building’s thermal performance. This leads to lower energy consumption and helps meet stringent energy codes.
What are the benefits of prefabricated EIFS panels?
What are the benefits of prefabricated EIFS panels?
Prefabricated EIFS panels are constructed off-site on light-gauge metal frames, allowing for up to 80% faster installation compared to traditional methods. They also ensure better quality control and reduce on-site labor.
What makes EEWS's EIFS services stand out?
What makes EEWS's EIFS services stand out?
EEWS has over 50 years of experience in manufacturing wall panel systems. Their in-house team utilizes advanced Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology to ensure precision and efficiency in every project.
How does EEWS ensure quality control in EIFS fabrication?
How does EEWS ensure quality control in EIFS fabrication?
By fabricating EIFS panels in a climate-controlled facility, EEWS eliminates weather-related unpredictability, ensuring consistent quality and durability of the panels.

Available as a barrier or rainscreen system on a metal tray base, fins, sunshades, and architectural accents enhance solar control and façade articulation. These elements integrate seamlessly into Eastern Exterior Wall Systems assemblies to support cohesive, high-performance enclosures.
Learn MoreInsulation & Girts
EEWS’s systems are engineered with internal girts to provide proper support for the outboard cladding materials. Girts range from galvanized to thermally neutral fiberglass, to aluminum, to stainless steel. We use various types of insulation within our systems, including Polyisocyanurate Boards, Mineral Wool, and Rigid Foam.

Extrusions & Gaskets
Our dry gasket system delivers superior weather resistance and faster installation timelines.
Learn MoreFraming
Framing serves as the structural backbone of our wall panel systems. We engineer and fabricate the framing that provides the necessary support for the exterior cladding and other panel components. Each frame is precisely designed to meet the building’s structural, thermal, and performance requirements.
