Renderplas is the Most Specified Plaster Beading in the UK

Renderplas bead profiles are vital components in high-quality rendered and plastered walls and help you achieve building regulations compliance.

Our BBA-certified external render beads perfectly complement your chosen render specification, especially as they come in a range of depths to suit the depth of the render. The profiles are compatible with systems from leading UK manufacturers, including Clayworks, Ecorend, K Rend, Parex and Weber.

For External Wall Insulation (EWI) systems, we offer external insulation beads. Our range also covers interior finishing, with plaster beads and plasterboard (dry lining) beads.

Environmental

All components must play their part in meeting a project’s environmental goals. By specifying Renderplas PVCu beading, you are choosing UK-manufactured components that have been assessed for their whole life impact. All profiles are made using at least 95% recycled content, while some, such as the white bead profiles for external render, use 100% recycled material.

Choosing bead profiles from Renderplas makes it easier to specify high-performance render and plaster systems with a durable, quality finish. Our PVCu beads are designed to outperform their steel counterparts and are guaranteed to be fit-for-purpose for the lifetime of the render, or at least 25 years.
