Heat resistant plaster & render system
An increasing trend towards ‘hole in the wall’ or cassette stoves, where the temperature on the surrounding walls are generally too high for gypsum based materials, has led to Vitcas developing a system to overcome this limitation. Vitcas Heat Resistant Plaster can be used on top of Vitcas Fireplace Render where there is existing masonry, or alternatively Heat Resistant Plaster can be used as a skim coat on both Heat Resistant Plasterboards and Construction boards.
Heat Resistant Plaster
Vitcas® Heat Resistant Plaster is a fireproof smooth finishing coat added on top of Vitcas® Fireplace Render, Vitcas® HT Boards and construction boards. The plaster is resistant to 650oC / 1200oF
High Temperature Plasterboard
Vitcas® High Temperature Plasterboard is a non-combustible decorative board. Fire resistant and contains no gypsum. Ideal for use in domestic applications.
Fireplace Render
Vitcas® Fireplace Render is a prepared dry mix which provides a protective rendering for vulnerable materials, e.g. brick, stone and concrete, which can be damaged by exposure to heat. Resistant to 1400oC.
