List of featured suppliers of RENDER LATHS Polyethylene on Building Products Index
Render laths are thin strips of wood or metal used in conjunction with a polyethylene layer to provide a base for applying a plaster render finish to walls or ceilings. The polyethylene layer acts as a moisture barrier, preventing water damage to the underlying structure while also providing a smooth surface for the plaster to adhere to. The laths are fixed to the surface with nails or screws, creating a grid-like pattern that helps to distribute the weight of the render and prevent cracking or sagging over time. Together, the render laths and polyethylene layer provide a durable and long-lasting finish for interior or exterior walls and ceilings.
