Zenova IR Thermal Insulating Plaster

Zenova IR is an advanced thermal insulating render for internal and external walls, designed to reduce energy costs and improve comfort. Using innovative ceramic microsphere technology, it lowers heat transfer, reflects solar and infrared radiation, and prevents condensation and mould formation.

With straightforward application and proven performance, Zenova IR is a cost-effective alternative to traditional bulky insulation materials.
