- Key Features / Benefits
- Here are the advantages of using pre-mixed lime mortars:
- Consistency of mix: Factory-blended proportions mean less chance of error onsite, more uniform strength and colour.
- Breathability / compatibility: Lime mortars allow vapour and moisture movement, which is beneficial especially in older, solid-wall masonry buildings. The most flexible and vapour permeable/breathable of the lime product family.
- Reduced shrinkage (in many cases): The pre-washed sands, correct grading and controlled mix can reduce shrinkage and cracking. There is significantly improved workability and reduced risk of shrinkage.”
- Simpler logistics onsite: With less mixing of components, less waste, potentially fewer mistakes.
