Sandfree Plaster (HD)

Sandfree Plaster (HD)

Ever increasing demand for construction sand has caused rapid depletion of riverbeds and raised many environmental concerns. Aggressive and controlled sand mining has resulted in erratic supply and therefore greater fluctuation in prices as well as inconsistency in quality.

Conventional materials and methods of plastering are highly time consuming and involve more operations like procuring and sieving, which in turn lead to spillage and wastage.  

Perlcon Sandfree Plaster is a unique cement based formulation developed specifically to overcome sand related problems like availability, quality, labour and time. Sandfree Plaster ensures consistent quality, fewer operation cycles and quick construction. It saves time and manpower. Self curing Sandfree Plaster also resolves the problem of water for curing.

Sandfree Plaster is a premix material supplied in bags. Apply Sandfree Plaster on walls, ceilings, RCC work by just mixing with water.

Sandfree Plaster is a better alternative to gypsum plaster as it is damp proof, cement based and gives a crack free plaster surface, with quicker application.
