Render Mesh

Render mesh reinforces plastering and render systems. It is incorporated into the base coat to enhance surface integrity, increase tensile strength, and reduce the risk of impact cracks.

What Is Fibreglass Render Mesh?

Fibreglass rendering mesh is a lightweight, flexible material woven from glass fibres. It is used within render layers to improve stability and mechanical strength. By distributing stress and movement, fibreglass mesh maintains a smooth and consistent finish across large or uneven surfaces.

What Is Render Mesh Used For?

Render mesh benefits structures in many ways, such as:

  • Strengthening the layers of render or plaster.
  • Supporting renders over mixed or unstable substrates.
  • Reinforcing vulnerable areas like joints, corners, and window reveals.
  • Stabilising external wall insulation (EWI) systems to ensure secure adhesion.
  • Compatible with systems like K Rend Mesh or Bondit Render Mesh for uniform, reliable results.

Types of Render Mesh

Alkali-Resistant Mesh

Alkali-resistant render mesh is a special type of reinforcing fabric used in wall finishes. The mesh is embedded within plaster, render, or cement layers to stop cracks from forming.

To make it alkali-resistant, it is treated to withstand the strong chemicals (called alkalis) found in cement and lime mixes.

Expandable Lath Mesh

Expandable mesh lath is created by slitting and stretching metal sheets to form a diamond-like mesh that securely grips plaster or render. Two metals commonly used to make the product are stainless steel and galvanised steel.

Rib Lath Mesh

Rib lath mesh is an expanded metal sheet featuring raised ribs that enhance rigidity and strength. Manufactured from galvanised or stainless steel, it is ideal where direct plastering is not suitable.

Benefits Of Rendering Mesh

Render mesh offers several key advantages:

  • Prevents surface cracks and bulging.
  • Improves flexibility and surface strength for durable, crack-resistant finishes.
  • Easy to cut, shape, and integrate into wet render.
  • Lightweight yet incredibly strong.
  • Weather- and alkali-resistant.
  • Compatible with most traditional and polymer-based silicone render systems.

FAQ

How to use render mesh

  • Press mesh firmly into the wet base coat using a trowel.
  • Ensure it is fully embedded and maintain even tension to form a uniform layer.
  • Overlap joins by at least 100mm for full coverage.
  • Let the base coat set, then apply the next render coating.

What does render mesh do

It reinforces render systems, reducing surface damage from movement,  shrinkage, or impact.
