Importance of ready mix plaster
Ready mix plaster makes the mason’s job easier because there are no quality issues or difficulties with on-site mixing. Ready mix plaster is ready-mix, polymer-modified plaster with a sand-cement foundation that is trusted by building companies all over the nation. It bonds to the substrate more effectively and is simple to employ.
Graded sand, which is silt-free and part of Ready-mix plaster’s unique recipe, enables smooth and level surfaces. Less curing time and re-bonding losses are two different benefits of the special additives and polymers we’ve added to our ready-mix cement plaster. This is as a result of its increased bonding abilities and improved hydration retention. It offers a finish that is far smoother and more durable than traditional plaster.
Ready mix Plaster distinguishes itself from competing ready mix plaster producers by providing superior coverage and quicker setting qualities. Ready mix Plaster is produced with cutting-edge technology and approved to IS 1542 standards.

Build well Ready -mix plaster ‘s approximately average per 40 kg is as under
- 10-12 mm plaster on light weight blocks is 17-18 sq.ft.
- 10 -12 mm on Brick wall 14-15 sq.ft.
- 18 mm on light weight blocks is 11 sq.ft.
- 25 mm on brick wall 7-7.5 sq.ft.
- 10mm on RCC 20-22sq.ft.
- Coverages depend on quality and nature of substrates hence is indication.
- Plaster more than 10-12 mm thickness must be in 2 coats
