HYDRAULIC MORTAR?<br />

COLOUR RANGE<br />

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 at our state of<br />

maintain consistent colour<br />

and strength.<br />

Joint depth for re-pointing =<br />
