Woven from glass fibres coated in a special latex that is resistant to chemicals and alkalines render mesh adds strength, prevents cracks at areas of stress and protects against impact damage such as that can occur when ladders are propped up against a wall. Rendermesh is suitable for use in all render, EWI, ETICS and plaster applications

Applications

All standard rendering and internal plastering applications, external wall insulation systems, timber frame. Provides crack resisting and impact resistant strength to wall coatings

Chemical

Zero chemical reaction with water, sand and cement, acrylic render, water based paint; avoid contact with solvents

Durability

Impact and stretch resistant; minimises cracking, indentation and puncture damage

Economics

Quick and easy to install; reduction in puncture damage caused by impact or pressure; reduced whole life costs by minimising the need for maintenance; greater resistance to cracks in the render surface

Environment

Manufactured to all UK and EU standards using only materials allowable under REACH

 

Fire

Inflammable, will not contribute to the combustion of the system

Health and Safety

Render mesh is safe to handle removing the dangers of cut metal; gloves should be worn if handling cut thread to avoid micro fibres; if micro fibres come into contact with eyes rinse for 15 minutes in water holding eyelids wide open

Heat

Ideal for all habitable climates

Guarantees

Fit for purpose for the lifetime of the render and at least 25 years

Mechanics

Meets equivalent British Standard for metal lath BS EN 13658-2:2016 and BS EN 13496:2013 for thermal insulation products for building applications

Pollution

Ecologically benign when complete; non-hazardous in water; does not release substances into the atmosphere unless in contact with solvents or if shredded; if ingested seek medical assistance

Strength

For all applications requiring strong reinforcement

Weather

Not affected by weather and should be specified in all regions including those with high temperature or climate variation

Installation

Standard industry practice or guidelines stipulated by the system manufacturer should be followed for installation. In most cases rendermesh should be embedded into a base coat of render or plaster. Lay the mesh flat against the base coat with no wrinkles or creases and using a trowel, push the mesh into the top third of the base coat so that the mesh cannot be seen. Where 2 or more sheets of mesh are used they must overlap by 100mm where they meet.

 

Storage

Store away from extreme temperatures. Can be stored flat or vertically. Avoid creasing or kinking
