The Look

The finish is warm and matte with a dramatic organic appeal, aging beautifully with a natural patina.  Tonachino Lime Render is naturally white and can be coloured with mineral pigments achieving a range of natural colours and attractive patina effects.

Unique creativity can add further depth to its earthy appeal with the use of additives such as Straw, Wheat or crushed Marble. This versatile plaster can be applied to create a wide range of finishes and textures, from a classic float smooth finish, an organic undulating render, or the artisan’s own custom decorative finishing technique.

The Uses

This natural material is versatile and exceptionally durable, and not just suited to a Mediterranean style, Tonachino Lime Render can be finished in numerous ways.  Its appearance is distinctly different from acrylic renders and suits a range of styles including modern, historic, and eco-projects. It can be applied over a range of substrates and is ideal for interior walls and external features such as fences, outdoor kitchens, and retaining walls.

Tonachino Lime Render has a perfect synergy applied against natural elements of stone.

The Environment
