Nu-Age Granosite

Demanding the best

Architects, developers and builders demand the best quality products to incorporate into their designs. Aesthetics is essential for these specifiers and the ability of a product to conform to the difficult details associated with today's trends is imperative for the longevity of the product in the market place. The expectations of the designer and client are of equal importance in achieving result in both form and function of the finished product.

 

A Range of Systems

Today, Granosite is synonymous with texture coatings, and Wattyl manufacture approximately 35 products that form the basis of over 450 system specifications applicable to a wide range of substrates that are commonly used in modern building practise. Furthermore we are constantly assessing new substrates as they emerge and designing appropriate coating systems.

The use of texture coatings has increased over the years as developers, designers and builders have come to understand the valuable long-term asset protection that specially formulated high build systems over renders and claddings can provide over a standard paint specification. Particularly in aggressive environments such as coastal areas and major cities where salts, carbon dioxide and other pollutants combined with moisture and extreme UV exposure to actively work at breaking down substrates, the use of a high performance coating system is necessary to minimise maintenance and maintain asset value.

Wattyl Granosite and Nu-Age Plaster recognises the delicate balance required between appearance and practicality and has developed a range ofcladding solutions that will not only satisfy, but also surpass the expectations of the designer and client combined.
