The new K Rend Eco Range from Kilwaughter Minerals has been created to offer a suite of reduced cement render and mortar products.
Designed with innovative cement replacement technology, the range is said to represent a significant investment from Kilwaughter and boasts re-engineered formulas for three existing products – K Post, GP Mix and Mineral TC – which the supplier says reduce embodied carbon in the manufacturing process by up to 56%.
Developed by K Rend’s research and development team, the launch of the new Eco Range is described as underscoring the company’s “dedication to improving environmental standards in the construction industry, promoting sustainable practices and meeting the demands of eco-conscious customers.”
Caroline Rowley, Kilwaughter Minerals’ Business Development Director (pictured above with CEO Gary Wilmot), said: “The launch of K Rend’s Eco Range reinforces Kilwaughter Minerals’ position as an industry leader in the UK and Ireland construction market. Sustainability is one of our core values and was very much a key focus during the concept, design and manufacture of this suite of products.
“This new range of sustainable products, delivers reduced embodied carbon, providing choice to our customers while contributing to a cleaner environment, and maintaining the high level of performance customers expect from K Rend. As a responsible manufacturer, Kilwaughter Minerals is committed to innovating to get the best outcomes and to lead by doing so.”
The manufacturer explains that each product within the range is “designed with enhanced sustainability features tailored to its specific function.” K Post, for example, is a premium rapid-setting concrete which comes ready-mixed and is packaged in eco-friendly 20kg showerproof bags.
GP Mix is a versatile grey ready-mixed product which can be used as a render, mortar or plaster now offering improved workability and faster drying times, while Mineral TC is a low-maintenance, through-coloured thin coat render available in a variety of colours to suit individual taste and project style.
