Lime Plaster
Lime plaster is a traditional building material composed of lime, sand, and water, celebrated for its breathability, flexibility, and durability. This natural composition allows buildings to manage moisture effectively, preventing damage from trapped humidity. Lime plaster offers excellent adhesion and is environmentally friendly, making it an ideal choice for both restoration projects and new construction. From smooth, polished surfaces to textured, rustic looks, it can be tailored to suit various design preferences.
Earth Plaster
Clay plaster is a natural, eco-friendly wall finish made from clay, sand, binders, and water, sometimes mixed with natural fibers like straw. It’s breathable, non-toxic, and helps regulate indoor humidity, making it a popular choice for sustainable building. Clay plasters can be applied in various textures and finishes, ranging from smooth to rough, adding aesthetic warmth and earthiness to spaces.
Lime Concrete
Lime concrete is a type of concrete made using lime (usually slaked lime or quicklime) as the binding material instead of cement, mixed with aggregates like sand, gravel, or stone. Historically used before the advent of Portland cement, lime concrete offers benefits such as breathability, flexibility, and a lower carbon footprint due to lime’s natural properties. It was widely used in ancient Roman and medieval construction.
Metallics
Metallic plaster finishes are decorative wall coatings that contain metallic or pearlescent pigments, giving surfaces a shimmering, reflective quality. These finishes create a luxurious and sophisticated look, often resembling metals like gold, silver, bronze, or steel. The application can range from smooth, polished effects to textured artistic finishes, adding depth and light play to walls.
