Satisfied custumers

Grey lime for restoration work: Masonry work was done using Tradical® PF 55 to repair some parts of the wall with loose rubble stones, and then as a base coat and preliminary render before applying a more traditional lime finish using Tradical PF 80.

 

Tradical® PF 55: Class FL B 5 building lime according to standard NF EN 459

Grey lime for restoration work: To restore some character to this house, the company worked on a stonework design laid out over the original walls. The masonry work was done using Tradical® PF 55 to deliver a complete makeover and give some flair to this detached house, enhanced with a veranda in perfect harmony with the project.

White lime for restoration work: The old Gare du Sud train station in Nice (06 – France) was reconverted into a multimedia library in a rapidly-developing district. The company A Chaux et Sable was in charge of restoration, and rebuilt a few white-lime wall sections using Tradical® Bâtir with local hard stones — authentic to the last!

 

Tradical® Bâtir: Class FL A 3.5 building lime according to standard NF EN 459

Tradical® Bâtir white lime used on a Monomur brick construction: Using local sand, the render was mechanically applied over a newly built Monomur brick substrate with a total height of 26 m and a surface area of 3500 m². It was at least as cost-effective as a ready-to-mix product, required fewer deliveries and was easier to manage in its 20 kg bags.
