Description

Ironstone Basecoat Render is a factory blended mortar that takes all variables out of the equation, made using Heidelberg Materials Socli Natural Hydraulic Lime, well graded kiln dried sand and alkaline resistant fibres.

Ironstone Basecoat Render offers all of the advantages of the Ironstone ready mixed range but with additional work aids added to significantly improve the mortars physical and mechanical performance.

Suitable for both internal and external backgrounds. The addition of fibres provides reinforcement, improved tensile strength and assists to mitigate cracking especially when using on high-suction backgrounds.

Benefits:

  • Breathable, durable, sustainable and natural
  • Features the feel of a modern render / plaster
  • Enhanced workability
  • Extended working and finishing time
  • Promotes even curing for an improved bond
  • Salt resistant
  • Ironstone Basecoat Plaster is ideal for older buildings where a pure lime plaster is required.
