Description

Onexit Universal 701 was selected for the application onto Poroton insulating masonry at the new extension of Our Lady’s Hospital, built by main contractor Walls Construction. Face 8, specialist facade contractor, Drogheda, carried out both the build of the 450 m² blocks and application of the render. The special render properties; light weight, low thermal conductivity high yield and technical back up, were the key factors in selecting Smet Building Products & Onexit’s high quality product. For the application of a scratch coat prior to gypsum skim, Bauprotec 900 E was spray applied. Again a showcase project highlighting the how best practice can be achieved when partnering with Smet Building Products Ltd.
