ProPERLA Masonry Crème
A surface treated with ProPERLA masonry cream will insulate mineral building materials by reducing water absorption. The masonry cream chemically bonds to the surface, penetrating up to 17mm to create an invisible insulation barrier.
20 Year Product Guarantee
ProPERLA Masonry Crème benefits from a 20 year manufacturer’s guarantee but has been proven to perform for 25 years. When tested under 25 years accelerated weathering conditions there was no deterioration in performance or aesthetic appearance.
Key Features of ProPERLA Masonry Crème:
- For use on a range of substrates including brick, stone, concrete and sandstone
- It has undergone UKAS Accredited testing
- Penetrates up to 17mm into the substrate to provide a clear insulation barrier
- Dries clear, it does not alter the appearance of the substrate
- Super hydrophobic coating
- Creates a self-cleaning surface like the Lotus Effect
- Helps prevent salt efflorescence and sulphate attack
- Helps prevent discoloration
- Discourages growth of moss, algae and lichens
- Prevents frost damage
A Clear Insulation Barrier
ProPERLA masonry cream creates a clear insulation barrier for single skin buildings and those built with a cavity. It has been proven to help retain heat in walls and reduce heat loss.
UKAS accredited tests have demonstrated that by reducing water absorption of the walls, ProPERLA masonry cream lead to thermal performance benefits. It has been proven to meet EAD 040083-00-0404.
The clear coating improves thermal efficiency and contributes to lower energy consumption and lower energy bills, by keeping walls dry. Damp walls act as ‘thermal bridges’ – enabling heat to transfer from the inside out twice as quickly as it would if the walls remained dry.
Independent testing has shown that ProPERLA Masonry Crème reduces water absorption by 96.3% and meets the British standard for water vapour resistance BS EN ISO 7783:2011.
Prevent and Protect
By diminishing water absorption, the clear masonry cream has been proven to reduce soluble salts migrating from bricks and mortar thereby preventing unsightly deposits of salt efflorescence. Whilst salt efflorescence is generally considered an aesthetic problem, it does have the potential to cause structural damage, such as the erosion of mortar joints, known as sulphate attack.
In contrast to coloured exterior wall coating, the masonry cream does not alter the appearance of the building, it helps to maintain and protect the natural beauty of the masonry;
- It mimics the lotus leaf by creating a super hydrophobic, self-cleaning surface. Dirt particles are unable to obtain a hold on ProPERLA treated surfaces and will simply flow off with rainfall.
- The growth of moss, algae and lichens is deterred.
- Slows the ageing or breakdown of the surface of the building by helping to protect it from the damaging effects of the weather including wind driven rain, frost, high air humidity and sea salt penetrated air.
- Performance is unaffected by UV rays
