2. Lime Mortar has been used in the
construction of buildings for over 2000
years, and used on the most iconic
historical landmarks across the world. For
example, the Great Wall of China, the
Houses of Parliament and Rome
Colosseum. These historical buildings are
still here today, due to its unique beneficial
properties.

5. What Are The Benefits?
Lime has many advantageous properties
over cement; it is weaker than the bricks,
masonry and stones, yet it is able to support
the full weight of the structure. This gives
the building the ability to flex and move
without the purpose of movement joints.
There are many other benefits for using it
too.

8. Breathability
A common problem with modern houses is
they are becoming less and less breathable.
Lime allows moisture to evaporate and wall
to breathe.
Absorbs Co2
Lime has a very unique benefit to any other building
material currently available. When curing process
starts it re-absorb CO2 from the atmosphere.

11. Less Movement Joints
Modern buildings using cement will generally
have an expansion joint every 8 metres. By not
using cement, you can have an expansion joint
every 20 metres.
Ready Mixed
Our mortars are ready mixed at our state of
the art factory. This removes the possibility of
inconsistent colour and strength that can
occur during site mixing.
