High-quality, low-maintenance render and plaster finishes require a high-performance beading product and Renderplas is the leader in PVCu beading.

For external finishes we offer BBA-certified render beads, as well as external insulation beads for External Wall Insulation (EWI) systems. Our internal finishing solutions include plaster beads and plasterboard beads (also known as dry lining beads).

Our render and plaster beads are available from merchants and suppliers nationwide. Research shows Renderplas products are the most specified bead profiles in the UK, so we work hard to make sure stock is available when you need it on site.

We stock more metres of beading available for next day delivery than any other manufacturer, meaning our bead profiles are available on short lead times. We also stock more metres of our coloured bead profiles than anyone else. Even working as part of a ‘just in time’ supply chain, you can get product when you need it.

PVCu is the beading material of choice. We pack profiles in robust fibreboard tubes or high strength corrugated boxes, so they arrive on-site in the best possible condition.

Our products are designed to outperform steel alternatives. They can be cut without creating sharp edges, so they are safer to handle. They are also guaranteed not to rust or stain. Robust, impact-resistant finishes that won’t crack mean you’re less likely to be called back to carry out remedial work.

We offer beads in a range of depths to suit the render or plaster and to enable you to achieve the finish you want. Our render beads are manufactured to be compatible with systems from leading UK manufacturers, including Clayworks, Ecorend, K Rend, Parex and Weber.

Renderplas beading is guaranteed to be fit-for-purpose for at least 25 years. You can use our products with confidence in all building types, from residential dwellings to commercial properties.

Safety

By using beads manufactured from PVCu, you benefit from products that are safe to handle as there are no sharp edges when cutting. Not only are risks reduced during installation, PVCu beads are also durable products that absorb impacts. They are, therefore, less likely to deform and create a safety hazard for building occupants.
