SMET NHL 3.5 & NHL 5 binders were specially selected for the restoration of the historical Warrenpoint Parish Church, Church of Ireland.  As part of the sympathetic restoration, the traditional Church tower was restored and the exterior render reinstated using SMET high quality pure Natural Hydraulic Lime binders: SMET NHL 5 & SMET NHL 3.5. The selective hydraulic strength development of NHL binders make them particularly suitable for producing lime mortars for masonry work and rendering & plastering on historical buildings and monuments.

NHL binders, available directly from SMET and distribution partner, Haldane Fisher, are particularly suited for ecological new builds, conservation, restoration, and preservation works. The products’ special composition allows mortars to breathe and permits constant hygrometric exchange between the substrate and the environment.

The Warrenpoint Parish Church, Church of Ireland Restoration is another showcase of sympathetic historic building restoration, made possible by using quality NHL products available from SMET. The comprehensive range of NHL restoration and preservation products, combined with exceptional technical support and aftercare, are key drivers in the selection of their natural conservation systems.
