The exterior to Sophia Mansions at Penarth Marina, Cardiff, a new residential development by Bellway Homes, has been finished with a Monocouche weber.pral M render in a special light blue colour, Blue Claire.


weber.pral M has been applied to the entrance facade where ashlars divide the surface into room sized areas with a raised profile in weber.pral M framing the windows.

On the opposite side of the building, overlooking the Marina, weber.pral M has been applied to the series of curved bays that form the dominant design to this elevation.

The Monocouche range of through coloured products is designed to take full advantage of the short application programmes made possible by modern one coat renders. Subject to weather conditions the material may be applied by machine or hand and scrape finished in the same day reducing programme periods, freeing up groundworks for early completion and reducing scaffolding costs to the minimum.

Scrape finishes with colour options provide low maintenance textured contrasting surfaces for designers. A roughcast spray finish is also possible when the product is applied by render spray machine.

The Weber Monocouche render colour range is continually expanding with both standard and special variations. The special ability to form ashlar features within Monocouche provides designers with a blank palette to create both modern and period facades. These accurately replicate stonework design without recourse to expensive 'specials'.

Monocouche products can be applied to most suitably prepared substrates from lightweight to dense blockwork, brick and concrete. Weber offer a full rang of technical support services from specification writing and sample provision to on site services and dedicated technical advice lines.
