We offer a wide range of render carrier boards and laths to cover most applications, these include E-Board, Renderpro, Knauf Aquapanel, Rendalath and a variety of metal laths and fixings.
Renderpro
 |
Renderpro is a magnesium silicate board and is fully approved for direct rendering with the appropriate K-Rend or JUB base coats. Renderpro is a non-combustible, moisture resistant board with excellent fire retardant and sound insulation and impact properties. It is lightweight, easy to cut, breathable and mould resistant. Renderpro is widely used on timber frame applications for both vertical and horizontal (soffit boards) applications.
|
For off-site and modular construction, Multi-pro XS
and Renderprohave been tested to achieve a 60 minute and 90 minute fire-resisting constructions. We can offer pre-completion and post-completion fire resisting solutions to timber kit manufacturers. |
Knauf Aquapanel -
Please call our office for board details and specification information
Metal Lath  |
A sheet of diamond pattern mesh. Produced for render work and provides a high degree of mechanical bonding with render. Nominal mesh size 9mm x 21mm. |
Rib Lath  |
A sheet herringbone patterned mesh having a profile between the mesh area. It is self-furring in that the ribs space the face of the lath away from the supports and background, leaving a void into which the render can penetrate and form a key. Nominal mesh size 9mm x 21mm.
Nominal weight 1.15kg/m² |
Render Rib
|
As Rib Lath but only available in galvanised. Suitable for external use and has a heavier guage that Rib Lath. Nominal mesh size 9mm x 21mm.
Nominal weight 1.78kg/m² |
Bekaert Rendalath is available as a galvanised or stainless steel lath with a building paper / breather membrane attached. It is suitable for timber frame applications and for areas of defective rendering/masonry that have contamination or high/low suction. There are a range of fixings from nylon plugs to stainless steel staples and screws with washers depending on the substrate to be lathed.
It is available with a 60mm phenolic insulation board attached for insulated render applications. This lath should be finished with K-Rend UF Fibre Base Coat prior to applying the desired drydash, scratch or thin coat render finish.
Available in sheet size 2450 X 650mm.
Typical application for timber or steel frame application
Typical application for solid application
Typical application for external wall insulation application
Typical Areas of Use:
- Timber Frame Structures
- Steel Frame Structures
- Defective Rendering without the need to remove existing
- Solid backing with a painted surface and no suction properties
- Solid backing with contaminated or varied backgrounds
- New build blockwork with very high/low suction properties
- Masonry with suction but no key

Comment: We recommend the use of Stainless Steel and PVC beads for external applications. Care should be taken when using Novaplas Coated beads and Galvanised Beads should only be used externally with guideance.
Galvanised beads are designed for internal use and are manufactured to BS6452 Part 1: 1984. Laths are designed for internal use except Render Rib which has a zinc coating of 450gms/m² manufactured to BS 1369 Part 1: 1987.
Novaplas products are as the galvanised products and are then powder coated to give high corrosion resistance. They are designed for external use and are ideally suited for modern renders.
Stainless steel products offer a higher specification again and are suitable for exterior application and areas subject to possible salt water exposure.
