Plastering Accessories
GENERAL INFORMATION
Use plastering accessories in construction to cope with changes in weather and other natural conditions. Changes in temperature, humidity, winds and in some areas, earthquakes have adverse effects on plaster age. On the other hand, using plastering accessories and beads allows us to support and strengthen cement plaster where different building elements meet.
