Noble plaster is the visible finishing layer of the facade and interior wall. It is not just color — but texture, material character, and durability all at once. The right noble plaster protects and aesthetically maintains the facade for years; the wrong material or technique will crack, discolor, and peel within a few years.
Noble plaster is a pigmented, thin-layer finishing plaster applied over the base coat and smoothing plaster layer, or over the smoothing layer in ETICS systems. Its grain size and texture determine the surface appearance: fine grains create a smoother finish, coarser grains give a more pronounced texture.
Scratched plaster: The fresh plaster surface is patterned with a gear wheel or toothed tool — resulting in a distinctive, horizontal scratched texture. The most common finishing technique for ETICS.
Rubbed (circularly smoothed) plaster: Using a foam sponge float moved in circular motions, the plaster achieves a flaky, slightly rough surface. Suitable for traditional, Mediterranean, and contemporary facades alike.
Textured plaster: Variants with larger grain size and stronger texture that define the character of the facade more boldly.
Siloxane-based noble plaster: Water-repellent, UV-stable, resistant to biological coating formation. Widely used for modern ETICS systems and renovated facades.
Silicate-based noble plaster: Chemically bonds to mineral substrates, offers maximum vapor permeability. Suitable for monument and historic buildings, adobe, and old brick masonry facades.
Acrylic-based noble plaster: Flexible, widely applicable, good mechanical resistance. Less prone to cracking than cement-based variants.
