Terrix® Render is based on innovative Swiss, patented technology converting potassium water glass into a polymer.
Polymer-silicate render offers all advantages of well know silicate renders without limitations related to the application process (silicate renders are very often used for renovation of historical/listed buildings due to its longevity). Due to its mineral characteristic and lack of surface electrostatics, the product is the most dirt resistant type of the render on the market and will never delaminate as it is adhered to a substrate by a chemical reaction.
Another important property of the render is its built-in high resistance to microbial contamination (eg. algae) as well as efflorescence. Terrix® RD-PS-S 1.5 is recommended for use in coastal areas where exposure for elements is high.
Benefits to the customer
Click below to expand:
No peeling or delamination or cracking
No flaking or cracking as Terrix® RD-PS-S paints bond to the substrate by chemical reaction.
High resistance to elements
The render is fully suitable for costal application.
Very high resistance to dirt
Not achievable by any organic based renders on the market, it is due to its mineral formulation therefore lack of surface electrostatics. The dust will not be attracted to the render.
Flame retardancy
Due to the lack of organic components in the render and pigments used for colouring. Terrix® RD-PS-S provides protection against the spread of flame. Mineral characteristic of the product makes it fully incombustible.
Colour retention that lasts
Built in UV blockers to maintain original look of render.
Natural algae resistance
Increased Ph level (high alkalinity) delivers natural and long lasting protection. Other products on the market are protected by addition of biocides which have limited lifespan (5-6 years).
Very low water absorption
The product is more resistant for winter when water freezes and by expanding causes system failures.
Spot repairs
The product can be easily spot repaired without leaving any visible patches.
Low maintenance cost
Due to render prosperities and application method the cost of maintenance is usually many times lower vs other products.
