BuildCrete Plaster

BuildCrete Plaster is an ultra-high-performance finish for architectural and industrial applications. This abuse-resistant interior veneer plaster is designed for buildings that require extreme abrasion resistance.

BuildCrete Plaster is a single product application that provides the ultimate in resistance to abrasion and indent far exceeding abuse type drywall. This product is formulated for industrial strengths exceeding 8,500 psi and provides an attractive, smooth, or textured finish over a variety of substrates, such as gypsum board, cement board, CMU block, mag-board, fiberboard, monolithic concrete, and unit masonry. Typical application thicknesses are 3/16″ depending on the needs of abuse resistance.

The BuildCrete Plaster mix contains all needed ingredients so no sand is added at the jobsite to minimize the risk of mixing errors. Produced using environmentally-friendly manufacturing techniques, BuildCrete Plaster is easy to mix and apply using conventional plaster tools and techniques. It is applied in a scratch and double-back one-coat application along with a 4.5 oz or 11 ounces or heavier fiberglass mesh depending on the abuse resistance needed. For texture finishes, complete texturing after the plaster has firmed up and before the final set. Polyurethane roller texture finishes can also be used and rapidly finished. One thin coat is applied directly over the EPS foam, a fiberglass mesh is embedded and then covered over with the same material giving about 3/16″ finished thickness.

BuildCrete Plaster was specifically developed for the toughest industrial applications, but it is also an ideal finish for walls in homes, schools, universities, restaurants, medical facilities, hotels, commercial offices, government/military buildings, correctional facilities, multi-family housing, and other high-traffic, high-abuse applications. The strength and abrasion and abuse-resistance features also provide the means for reduced long-term maintenance costs. Architects and designers can also take advantage of the wide range of decorative options for this product. Besides many types of smooth and textured finishes, BuildCrete Plaster can be easily painted or stained. It is designed to be environmentally responsible and emits zero pollutants, and uses less water than similar products currently on the market.

All BuildCrete Plaster products exceed USEPA and California indoor air quality and VOC standards and conserve water compared to other similar products. Abuse-resistant features such as resistance to cracking, indentation, and abrasion, coupled with ease of installation, fire protection, design options, and resistance to mold and gives BuildCrete Plaster unparalleled versatility inside any structure.

A Level III (highest) abuse resistance is achieved by applying a 3/16″ thickness and it replaces fragile 1/2″or 5/8″ gypsum board over ICF walls and ceilings. BuildCrete Plaster is tested and code approved for ICF’s to ASTM E-136, ASTM E-84, and NFPA-286 code compliance by Intertek.
