Limetec Renders & Plasters

Lime-based render and plaster
'Unlike cement, lime based renders and plasters allow for the recycling and reuse of bricks and masonry. It also uses less energy than cement in its production, and it reabsorbs some of the CO2 given off in the firing process as it sets. It also has a lower embodied energy that most cement based products.

Renders
The Limetec range of lime renders not only offer sustainable benefits, breathability and flexibility of lime, they can also reduce site times by a massive 75% when compared to traditional application techniques.

They both contribute to a healthy internal environment and are economic, practical alternatives to renders containing gypsum or patent cements that have little or no vapour permeable qualities. They are designed for spray or hand application as a two coat system. Suitable substrates include brickwork, blockwork or concrete.
