KEY BENEFITS<br />
<strong>Lime</strong> mortar has been used in the construction<br />
of buildings for over 2000 years, and seen<br />
on the most iconic historical landmarks<br />
across the world.<br />
For example, the Great Wall of China, the Houses of<br />
Parliament and Rome Colosseum.<br />
These historical buildings are still here today,<br />
due to its unique beneficial properties.<br />
NATURAL<br />
TRADITIONAL LONDON<br />
<strong>Lime</strong> mortar has many advantageous<br />
properties over cement; it is weaker than<br />
bricks and masonry, yet able to support the<br />
full weight of the structure.<br />
This gives the building the ability to flex and move<br />
without the purpose of movement joints.<br />
There are many other benefits for using it too:<br />

Breathability<br />
Modern houses are becoming<br />
less and less breathable;<br />
<strong>Lime</strong> mortar allows moisture<br />
to evaporate and walls to<br />
breathe<br />
Absorbs Co2<br />
<strong>Lime</strong> mortar has a very unique<br />
benefit in that it re-absorbs CO2<br />
from the atmosphere during the<br />
curing process<br />
This range has been designed with specific<br />
conservation areas in mind to offer a variety of<br />
beautiful colours.<br />

Less Movement<br />
Using lime mortar can decrease<br />
the need for and frequency of<br />
expansion joints.<br />
Recycleable<br />
The use of lime mortar<br />
enables masonry to be<br />
recycled at the end of the<br />
building’s life.<br />

Flexibility<br />
Its low modulus of<br />
elasticity allows for slight<br />
movement and thermal<br />
expansion over time<br />
Ready-mixed<br />
Ready-mixed at our state of<br />

maintain consistent colour<br />
and strength.<br />
Joint depth for re-pointing =<br />
