Facade Thermal Panels Installation Process
All installation work should begin with thorough preparation of the facade surface. It’s important to eliminate any irregularities, serious damage, clean the surface of dust and dirt, and pre-dry it.
Thermal Board Cladding Stages and Recommendations from Royal Facade:
- Using a level, install the galvanized starting profile.
- Using special fastening elements, mark and install thin brick wall covering.
- Perform joint grouting using grouting mixture.
Once the installation of the facade cladding panels is complete, joint grouting can begin after 24 hours — giving the adhesive time to set slightly.

Types of Polystyrene: Expanded and Extruded
Royal Facade uses expanded polystyrene of our own production in manufacturing thermal barrier insulation sheets. This is a material with high density indicators. EPS thermal insulation composition includes flame retardants, eliminating the possibility of fire spread and support.
Extruded polystyrene is a product of Ukrainian brands. This material is considered moisture-resistant, strong, and known for its durability. Inert gases are used in the composition, making XPS thermal insulation an environmentally safe solution.
Both types of polystyrene belong to the list of high-quality insulation materials that are in special demand not only in the Ukrainian market but also abroad.
Thermal Panel Production – A Diverse Product Line:
Thin brick wall panels are offered in various formats:
– 32 tiles pressed into an insulation layer with quarter-locks located around the entire perimeter or horizontally.
– Panels with full decorative tile bonding or with tile edges partially extending beyond the insulation.Slope elements – uses 8 whole tile types with extruded polystyrene with standard 30mm thickness.
Cornice element – uses 8 whole tile types with a certain type of insulation, thickness ranging from 30-200mm.
Corner panels offered in various formats:
– 8 whole tiles and 8 halves connected to create a corner shape with decorative layer cut at 45/90 degrees.
– Additionally pressed into insulation layer with quarter-locks around perimeter/horizontally.
With full bonding/slightly protruding parts beyond polystyrene thermal insulationWall panel supplemented with large-format tiles (2-3 tiles per insulation layer depending on specific model). Such tiles were pressed on 90% of the panel surface, with a set of plastic washers for fixing the entire structure.

Thermal Panel Varieties Based on Insulation Shape
Based on this criterion, all Royal Facade™ panels are divided into several categories: F, F-, and F+.
Let’s examine each proposed type in detail:
F type
Format “F” insulation – these are thermal panels with clinker tiles, supplemented with a quarter-lock that eliminates cold bridge formation. Minimum thickness depends on the chosen insulation layer: for expanded polystyrene (EPS) – 1.97 in., for XPS thermal insulation board – 1.18 in.. Maximum thickness is the same for all insulation types – 11.81 in.
Main advantages of “F” type panels:
- Affordable cost
Versatility – this format is perfect for decorating and simultaneously insulating external surfaces - Reliable quarter-lock around the entire panel perimeter
- Tiles are almost completely pressed into the insulation layer (exception for particles protruding beyond insulation).
- According to Test Protocol №211-323/124/18, tile adhesion strength to insulation layer exceeds specified standards by 4.7 times.
F- type
Format “F-” insulation – these are clinker thermal panels with quarter-lock located horizontally. Minimum thickness depends on chosen insulation layer: for expanded polystyrene (EPS) – 1.97 in., for extruded (XPS) – 1.18 in.
Maximum thickness is the same for all insulation types – 5.9 in.
Possible selection of most appropriate polyurethane thermal insulation thickness: 1.97 in., 3.15 in., 3.94 in., 4.72 in., 5.9 in. (corners up to 3.94 in.). This is an excellent solution for already insulated facades or perfectly level surfaces (pre-prepared).
Main advantages of “F-” type panels:
- Medium market price
- Simpler installation method for entire structure. However, additional foam application is needed in side connection areas due to quarter-lock use only horizontally
- Thin bricks/tiles completely pressed into insulation layer (according to Test Protocol №211-323/124/18, tile adhesion strength exceeds standards by 4.7 times)
- No cold bridge formation possibility horizontally. However, vertical locks remain unprotected (exception when special adhesive foam is additionally used)
F+ type
Format F+ insulation – these are clinker panels supplemented with quarter-lock for cold bridge protection and 100% surface tile bonding. According to Test Protocol №211-323/124/18, tile adhesion strength to insulation layer exceeds specified standards by 4.7 times.
Minimum panel thickness – 80mm. Available thickness options: 3.15 in., 3.94 in., 4.72 in., 5.9 in. (EPS and XPS). Maximum thickness is the same for all insulation types – 5.9 in..
In this case, quarter-lock is located around the entire facade structure perimeter. As a result, thin brick cladding results from bonding two identical insulation parts, ensuring perfect geometry. Additionally, the undesirable arch effect due to internal stress of the whole expanded form was avoided.
Main advantages of “F+” type panels:
- Cost of such panels is higher than the previous two formats – F and F-
- Full clinker tile bonding across the entire panel surface
- Maximally convenient and quick installation process
- Quarter-lock located around entire perimeter guarantees reliable cold bridge protection, eliminating the need for additional adhesive foam use at thermal panel joints

Clinker thermal panels are a universal solution for every house and any other building. Their use simultaneously guarantees reliable thermal insulation, facade protection from mechanical damage and negative atmospheric impacts, and preserves attractive facade design. Additionally, any decorative layer can be selected – shade and design.
The simple and understandable panel design guarantees quick installation and the possibility of completing the entire process yourself. Despite installation work simplicity, preliminary consultation from our specialist team is essential. Our specialists are ready not only to answer customer questions but also offer professional installation services. In this case, you can properly evaluate all facade structure advantages, considering main fixation nuances and external surface preparation rules.
Thermal panel installation cost depends on many nuances and certain factors. For quick calculation, use our special calculator considering: building facade area; insulation type and thickness; tile brand and shade; number of bags and grouting mixture color; fastening element type, quantity, and size; number of adhesive foam cans. Therefore, it’s difficult to specify exact cost without individual calculations. Depending on each customer’s wishes and requirements, we can select the most appropriate solution based on allocated budget.
These panels are often called universal since they can be used for various buildings. Thermal panel application is especially useful for buildings requiring quality external wall thermal insulation, wall leveling, and quality decorative finishing based on exterior design. The main thing is remembering the need for preliminary surface preparation.
Facades with thermal panels don’t require complex maintenance. For example, when dust or dirt appears on the facade surface, use a cloth – dry or damp. With green coating and moss appearance, use special products that can be applied to the facade with a brush or sprayer. After this, tiles should be washed with water.
