Scope of Use
Designed for levelling, strapping and lining of concrete/ pre-cast, masonry, block or brick walls - often the internal side of building external walls, both sides of 'concrete' intertenancy walls or alternatively exposed concrete pillars etc.
These above types of substrates are often uneven, and so require levelling-out prior to wall lining, in order to achieve a reasonable level surface finish. Also, there are often other building products/ components which need to be encapsulated within the wall (thickness), such as insulation and electrical or plumbing cables, conduits, and service pipelines of varying diameter/ dimensions.
