Lime plasters and lime paints are
by-products of earth - direct derivatives of limestone. They are defined as natural because they endure minimal processing and they contain no synthetic ingredients. Lime is versatile and time-proven. It has been used to finish buildings for over 6000 years from prestigious monuments to ordinary homes worldwide. The formulas of eco stucco™ and the application techniques are centuries old. They pay tribute to those who have laid the foundations for this simple, yet highly effective material. By bringing to market authentic materials that are easy to use and on-going support to contractors we hope to bridge the gap between this ancient know-how and today's building industry. Lime plasters and paints are the obvious sustainable choice in light of our envirronmental challenges. They have a track record for longevity, healthy indoors, and minimal impact on the envirronment: the essence of sustainability.
Packaging
In an industry largely dominated by
the use of plastic pails, Mediterranean Colors, LLC –purveyor of eco stucco™ - is introducing a revolutionary change in packaging plaster materials. The dry product is now contained in post-consumer carton crates. It is ready for use right of the box.
By significantly reducing the use plastic pails on job sites, the company hopes that others will follow suit in helping reduce the impact on land and ocean fills.
