What is traditional lime plaster?

Traditional lime plaster is a handcrafted coating that has been used since ancient times in construction and to decorate interiors and façades. Made primarily from air lime putty, natural aggregates and water, it provides elegant, durable and fully breathable finishes suitable for both historic buildings and new construction. Unlike modern coatings, lime plaster contains no cement or synthetic resins, making it a more natural, sustainable solution that respects the original materials. It is especially suited to restoring façades, rehabilitating buildings, creating decorative mouldings and reliefs, and finishing walls and ceilings to a high standard.
