Claytec finish




Clay plasters are made from a blend of unfired clay and sands. 
Their functional properties, principally, that of breathability and known abilities to regulate relative humidity (RH) are useful benefits in airtight construction for both renovating old and building new properties.

Clay boards are a useful replacement for gypsum plasterboard and are compatible with clay and lime plasters.


The application of clay products in general influences the internal building environment by regulating temperature, absorbing moisture and odours and insulating against sound transfer.
 

Clay Boards & Plasters

  • Claytec Clayboard

    Clay board is a composite board consisting of clay, reed and hessian. The reeds from managed reed beds run along and across the board length and the board is faced on both sides with hessian. This acts as reinforcement and a plaster key. The constituents are mixed wet and formed into panels then cut to length and width.


     


  • Claytec Undercoat Clay Plaster

    Claytec  undercoat plaster is made of clay, sand and straw, giving it a coarse structure as a key for the finishing coat.

     


  • Claytec Topcoat Clay Plaster

    Claytec Topcoat plaster is a blend of clay, fine aggregate and organic fibres that is supplied as a dry powder. It has an indefinite shelf life if stored dry and requires only mixing with clean water to be ready for use. It hardens by drying - no chemical reaction takes place - and so remains workable for a long time and can be re-worked by the addition of water at any time.

  • Reed Board

    Reedboard is a rigid building board. It is made from natural reeds laid parallel and tightly bound using thin gauge galvanised wire,   Reed boards are suitable for internal use as a base for plastering on walls and ceilings. They can be used against a solid background or over studs or joists as a practical alternative lining material to gypsum plasterboard and lath-and-plaster.


     


  • Reed Mat

    Reed mat is lathing supplied in a roll. It is made from natural reeds laid parallel and bound using zinc-plated narrow gauge wire to form a long sheet. Suitable for internal use as a base for plastering on walls and ceilings.
