Durability, versatility, high quality, ease of use and almost unlimited design possibilities - all this is about facade plaster. Today decorative plaster is one of the most popular finishing materials. Thanks to the variety of colors and textures, architects and designers use it to bring all their ideas to life.
The Austrian company Baumit, known as one of the largest manufacturers of building and finishing materials in Europe, has been designing facades for over 35 years. The product line includes a range of topcoats, whether it is traditional dry mineral plaster, decorative silicate plaster or a ready-to-use mixture based on acrylic or silicone resins. The company actively uses innovative technologies, constantly improving its products.
All-round facade protection
Baumit plasters and paints are versatile. They can be used to decorate new buildings and to renovate existing ones. They are applied on a reinforced base plaster layer, lime or lime-cement plaster, on top of mineral, silicate and dispersion plaster layers, as well as on fillers with an organic binder.
Baumit topcoats shape the appearance of the building and provide comprehensive and effective protection. The plaster layer protects the facade from mechanical and thermal influences. Houses built with Baumit products are not afraid of rain, snow or wind. Plaster repels moisture, dust and dirt. At the same time, it has a good indicator of vapor permeability - in other words, it breathes. Thanks to this, excess moisture does not accumulate in the premises, which creates a favorable environment for the appearance of algal invasions and mold. Thus, a high-quality external plaster layer forms a healthy microclimate in the house.
Baumit finishing materials withstand temperature fluctuations well, do not fade in the sun, do not crack. As a result, the building retains its original appearance for many years and does not need repair.
Design possibilities
Modern decorative plaster gives a huge scope for imagination. Today, with its help, you can create a wide variety of surfaces - from perfectly smooth to embossed or mosaic. Plaster easily imitates the structure of stone, concrete, wood, metal, brickwork. All textures are well combined with each other: the mirror wall of the wall is combined with a rough rubbed surface or a fine-grained, porous coating.
Decorative plaster, together with rich colors of facade paints, allow you to create unique solutions for the facade. The color palette of Baumit Life includes 888 different shades. This is the widest color gamut of paints in Europe, which gives complete freedom in building design. Facade thin-layer plasters can be painted in any color shown in the tinting table. For example, you can use trendy metallic paint (Baumit Metallic paint), pure color with a glaze effect (paint Baumit Lasur) or transparent paint with glitters (Baumit Glitter). The palette contains both the most delicate pastel shades and intense dark tones.

From self-cleaning surfaces using photocatalysts and nanotechnology to cold pigmented paints that retain their color saturation for a long time, the Baumit product line is designed for every application. For example, you can achieve a perfectly smooth and clean facade surface using Baumit Nanopor decorative plaster with a self-cleaning system. Durability and strength of the facades are guaranteed by the premium segment Baumit plasters. And high quality at the best prices - Baumit Profi products.
Baumit Nanopor
Baumit Nanopor façade plaster and paint is an example of innovation in façade design. Plaster buildings lose their appearance: the color fades, the walls become damp, dust accumulates on the surface, moss, fungal infections and other microorganisms appear. As a rule, after 5-10 years of operation, the facade already needs updating. Baumit solves this problem.
Baumit Nanopor decorative plaster is created using nanotechnology. Nanoparticles form such a tight connection that most of the dirt is not able to linger on the surface of the facade - there is simply nothing for dirt to catch on. The surface literally repels dust and moisture. And that insignificant percentage of pollution that still remains on the surface is easily removed by rain and wind.
To maximize the efficiency of the self-cleaning system in the Nanopor line, in addition to nanotechnology, photocatalytic active ingredients are used. They break down dirt particles when exposed to daylight. As a result, the facade of the building remains perfectly clean and bright for decades, as on the day of construction.
Baumit CreativTop
Most people have a clear idea of what a plaster facade should look like. Everyone knows, for example, such surfaces as "fur coat" or "bark beetle". But, it is possible that even on closer inspection, you will not determine for sure what material the facade is made of.
Baumit CreativTop decorative thin-layer plaster based on silicone resin gives incredible scope for creative design. It is available in six different structures and is suitable for both machine and hand application. With its help, you can create real works of art on the walls. The plaster is applied with large deep strokes or a weightless, airy canvas, reproduces a vertical volumetric drawing or imitates the surface of metal, wood, concrete.
Another advantage of this product is the possibility of dyeing in bulk. Any shade from the Baumit Life palette is available.
Baumit PuraTop
Baumit PuraTop premium decorative plaster based on pure acrylate is another unique solution from Baumit that allows you to choose any color solution without any restrictions.
Intense dark colors, for all their showiness, have always posed a danger for plaster facades. Black color attracts sunshine as much as possible. Accordingly, dark facades are much more susceptible to overheating in comparison with light ones. Under the influence of high temperatures, the life of the facade is reduced, and cracks and other damage may gradually appear.
Baumit PuraTop plaster in combination with PuraColor facade paints allows you to use rich dark colors without fear of overheating. The material is created on the basis of an acrylic binder using high quality cold pigments. The pigments reflect sunlight, which significantly lowers the temperature of the façade surface by more than 10 ° C on average. At the same time, it protects against color fading in the sun. As a result, the building retains its original appearance for many years.
