Render

There are three essential attributes of all our renders and plasters that should be chosen during the specification process:

Texture: Stippled, rilled, fine, coarse, rough, seamless or bespoke patterns and techniques.

Available in grain sizes from 1– 6mm, from smooth to extremely rough.

Colour: A range of 450 through–tinted samples are available for immediate viewing. Additional application of metallic sheen and added particles increase the design possibilities.

Technical considerations:

Available with mineral "StoMiral", Silicone "StoSilco" and acrylic resin "Stolit" based binders as well as with Lotus effect technolgy known as "StoLotusan" Each binder has its own technical advantages.
