    Benefits of NHL 3.5 Natural Hydraulic Lime

    Matching the flexibility and reduced strength of hydraulic lime mortars

    Lime mortars are slow to harden and remain more flexible than modern sand-cement mortars, with lower compressive and flexural strength, which helps to accommodate movement such as settlement or thermal expansion without causing stress to other building materials like brick or stone.

    Porosity and breathability of hydraulic lime mortars and renders

    Lime mortars offer better vapour permeability to allow moisture to be released from substrates. This also helps to reduce the risk of freeze thaw damage when trapped moisture freezes and expands.
