A superior render choice for coastal conditions

Life on the coast has its perks, but also presents some serious challenges for architects. The salty breeze and sea spray can wreak havoc on building materials, causing rapid corrosion, especially to steel components. Render is often used on coastal houses to protect the substrate from the elements but staining from rusty steel beading, which is used to reinforce the edges and create attractive straight finishes, can spoil the look. PVC render beads offer long-lasting protection and performance, outperforming their steel counterparts for a finish that endures.

Renderplas’ PVC render beads, for example, are designed for harsh environments and come with a guarantee of at least 25 years of performance, or the complete lifetime of a render. 

Unlike steel, PVC does not rust, and offers the same strength and reliability without the risk of corrosion, ensuring that buildings maintain their appearance and structural integrity over time. Additionally, PVC beads are easy to install and require little maintenance, saving time and money on projects, and can be manufactured from up to 100% recycled PVC to reduce a project’s carbon footprint.
