Modern decorative plaster is not just a finishing material, but also a way to give a house a unique look and provide walls with long-lasting protection. Among the most popular textures in construction and renovation are "Lamb" plaster and "Bark beetle" plaster. Both options are widely used for facades and interiors due to their attractive design and practical properties.
What is decorative plaster?
Decorative plaster is a special mixture with mineral or polymer additives, which after application creates a unique texture on the surface of the walls. It not only decorates the facade or interior, but also protects the base from moisture, mechanical damage and temperature changes.

Advantages of decorative plaster
Resistance to precipitation and ultraviolet light.
Teknodeko decorative plaster forms a durable protective layer that reliably protects the facade from rain, snow and sunlight. It does not fade in the sun and retains its color and texture for many years, which is especially important for outdoor work.
Vapor permeability – walls "breathe".
The material allows water vapor to freely escape from the walls, preventing the formation of condensation and mold. This maintains a healthy microclimate in the room, and the structures remain dry and durable.
Easy to care for – the surface can be washed.
Plaster does not require complex maintenance. Dirt is easily removed with water or mild detergents, which is especially convenient for facades and interiors with high requirements for cleanliness.
Perfectly white and paintable.
The basic white shade looks neat and universally fits any style. If necessary, the surface can be painted in any color, which opens up wide possibilities for design solutions and allows you to create a unique look for your home.
Durability.
Due to its high strength and resistance to mechanical damage, Teknodeko decorative plaster lasts for decades. It does not crack, does not crumble and retains its original appearance even under difficult operating conditions.
How to apply Teknodeko decorative plaster?
1. Preparation of the base.
Before applying decorative plaster, it is necessary to carefully prepare the surface. It must be flat, dry, free from dust, dirt, grease stains and weak layers. For better adhesion, it is recommended to moisten the base and, if necessary, prime it with an appropriate composition.
2. Preparation of the working solution.
Use only a clean container and water. Pour 5.5–6.0 liters of cold water into a bucket, then slowly pour in the Teknodeko dry mix (25 kg bag). Mix with a construction mixer at low speed for at least 10 minutes until a homogeneous plastic mass is obtained. Then leave the mixture to “rest” for about 5 minutes and mix thoroughly again. This will ensure the correct consistency and ease of use.
3. Application of the material.
The mixture is evenly applied to the prepared surface using a spatula or stainless steel trowel. The layer thickness should correspond to the size of the plaster grain.
4. Forming the texture.
While the composition is not dry, the surfaces are given a decorative structure:
5. Painting (optional).
After the plaster has completely dried, the surface can be left in its natural state or painted with facade or interior paint. This provides additional protection and allows for individual design solutions.
