EcoMortar®

Technical data sheet

Pre-mixed Natural Hydraulic Lime mortars for building, rendering and finishing coats in a variety of colours

The absence of cement, ashes and other pozzolanic additions together with its other qualities, make EcoMortar® highly suitable for repair and conservation work on traditional, vernacular and historic buildings. In new build the properties of EcoMortar® will allow joint free construction, dispersion of condensation and will accommodate small settlement movements.

Eco-friendly characteristics :
– high vapour exchange qualities
– produced with lower energy than cementitious mixes
– re-absorption of CO2 in curing
– will not deteriorate timber
– possibility of recycling the materials used in building
– elimination of painted finishes
