What is SprayCork

SprayCork is a type of spray render which uses natural ingredients to create a weather-proof coating for external and internal walls. What sets this particular render apart from traditional products is its unique versatility and the creative freedom that it gives designers and architects. SprayCork has a much longer lifespan than most other renders despite being made entirely from natural ingredients, it can also be used internally and plastered over meaning you can insulate your home with minimum disruption. This is why the industry, and Kevin McCloud’s Green Heroes Scheme, has taken such an interest. It’s a rare occurrence in the building and design industry to find products that are more practical and more environmentally-friendly than mainstream alternatives. SprayCork can be used as a thermal insulator and also has audible insulation features that make it suitable for a number of environments and structures including commercial and industrial buildings.

Benefits of SprayCork

SprayCork render is naturally more resilient to harsh weather conditions which is why it requires less maintenance than other popular options. This is why many homeowners commercial property owners have begun to use it. Not only has SprayCork helped developers and property owners to save money, it has also provided a greener option for those conscious about the environment. eIt should come as no surprise then that it’s turned many heads in the building and development industries. SprayCork’s natural, eco-friendly materials and long lifespan mean that maintenance costs can be reduced while providing an alternative to designers conscious about reducing their carbon footprint.

Here is what Kevin had to say about CorkSol SprayCork

“Cork is a fascinating material with excellent acoustic and thermal insulation properties. Its antifungal and resists rotting; it ‘breathes’, transpiring moisture; it will compress to form a tight gasket (think wine bottles); and it’s sustainable, in fact Europe’s cork production, in Portugal for example, needs our support.

Now it’s been turned into an insulating, breathable, elastic, sustainable render for buildings. Something that’s been missing from both the conservation and the eco building markets. Magical.” – Kevin McCloud

He set up the Green Heroes Scheme to promote and raise awareness about new products and ideas being developed to develop more eco-friendly and sustainable building projects around the world.

The 2016 Green Heroes Scheme saw SprayCork named as one of the best eco-friendly materials currently on the market.
