Thermo cork is a revolutionary natural cork coating that is perfect for both new builds and renovation projects.

Unlike traditional render, thermo cork won't hide the natural look and texture of your building materials, such as bricks. Instead, it provides a fire-resistant, breathable, and durable coating that also acts as a natural internal insulator. In fact, if applied in the right place, it can reduce noise levels by up to 36 decibels!

Not only does thermo cork provide these amazing benefits, it is also incredibly versatile and can be applied to a variety of surfaces, including old and cracked plastering and render. The flexible nature of the coating means that it will not only hide those unsightly cracks but will also prevent them from reappearing, all while providing insulation and fire resistance as an added bonus. Whether you have roof tiles, metal, wood, or steel beams, thermo cork is a multi-purpose coating that will adhere to them all.

Spray Thermo Cork Render FAQs, Guides & Expert Advice

FAQs: Spray Thermo Cork Render

What is Spray Thermo Cork Render?

Spray Thermo Cork Render is a natural, cork-based coating applied to building exteriors using a spray system. It offers thermal insulation, weatherproofing, breathability, and a decorative finish in one smart solution. Learn more on our Spray Thermo Cork Render page.

What are the benefits of cork render over traditional render?

Unlike cement-based render, cork render is flexible, breathable, and insulating. It won't crack easily, it helps reduce heating bills, and it's made from sustainable materials - making it eco-friendly as well as functional.

Can it be used on all types of buildings?

Yes. It's suitable for domestic homes, commercial buildings, and industrial units. Whether you're upgrading an older property or improving a new build, cork render is an effective and attractive solution.

What colours are available?

We offer a wide selection of colours and textured finishes, allowing you to achieve the exact look you want for your property exterior.

How does it improve insulation?

The cork particles in the render create a thermal barrier that reduces heat transfer. This helps your property stay warmer in winter and cooler in summer, improving comfort and cutting energy bills.

Is it waterproof?

Yes. Spray Thermo Cork Render is water-resistant yet breathable. This prevents damp and condensation while protecting against wind and rain.

Is it environmentally friendly?

Absolutely. Cork is a renewable resource, and the render contains no harmful chemicals. It's one of the most eco-conscious rendering options available.

How long does it last?

With correct application and minimal maintenance, cork render can last over 20 years. It retains colour well, resists cracking, and won't peel like paint.

Can it be applied over existing render or brickwork?

Yes. In most cases, it can be sprayed directly over suitable substrates including existing render, brick, concrete, or insulation systems - saving time and money on preparation.
