High-durability, low-emission binders for masonry, plasters and exteriors

Key features:
  • Low-VOC binders for environmentally-friendly, long-life masonry paints, plasters and EIFS
  • Self- and UV cross-linkable acrylic dispersions for elastic coatings
  • Outstanding dirt pick-up resistance
  • Excellent weather resistance.

Synthomer offers a wide range of resins specifically developed for plasters, masonry and high-quality exterior paint applications. We have products which are ideal for every application, from hard polymers to softer, cross-linking binders. So whatever your specific requirements, look no further.

Our binders for topcoat plasters and paints deliver excellent exterior durability and a high level of dirt pick-up resistance. As a result, the longer renovation intervals they enable lead to reduced carbon footprints and lower maintenance costs.

We also manufacture binders for exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS) applications, from panel adhesives to reinforcement plasters.
