Ultra Lime Plaster Base Coat

An insulating lime undercoat plaster. Suitable for most masonry and lath backgrounds.

Lime Green's Ultra lime plaster base coat is a lightweight insulating lime plaster base coat that is five to ten times thermally more efficient than other lime plasters. This makes it the perfect plastering base coat for building renovations, where it gives an additional insulation layer to internal walls and protects against salt damage.

As an insulating lime plaster, Ultra Lime Plaster is such an effective insulator because it contains an aggregate of hollow beads made from recycled glass, which can make up to 55% of its bulk. This replaces the sand conventionally used in standard commercial lime plasters, which means Ultra Lime Natural uses less energy to manufacture and is significantly lighter to transport, so cutting down on distribution costs and energy.

Also, because it is applied as a wet plaster, Ultra Lime Plaster acts as a ‘draught excluder' by plugging any small pores and gaps within the fabric of the wall, something that standard dry-lining cannot do to the same extent.

Ultra lime plaster base coat is applied to walls in the same way as conventional lime plasters. It has good ‘workability' and is easy to build up in thicker laters, if applioed to wooden laths it is usual to apply two coats of Ultra and one finish of Solo or Fibrelime.
