Biocalce Rinzaffo Kerakoll 25 Kg

Biocalce Rinzaffo by Kerakoll is a certified, eco-friendly, natural key coat mortar (rough-coat plaster). Formulated from pure natural hydraulic lime NHL 3.5 (according to EN 459-1) and natural aggregates, it is designed as a first bonding, leveling, and absorption-regulating coat prior to applying Biocalce series plasters (such as Biocalce Zoccolatura, Biocalce Intonaco, etc.).

Key Features & Benefits

  • Superior Adhesion: Creates a strong bonding bridge on all types of masonry (brick, stone, tufa, concrete blocks).

  • Absorption Regulation: Evens out the wall's suction and absorption capacity, preventing premature water loss from subsequent render layers.

  • Salt & Sulfate Resistance: Highly resistant to salt crystallization, serving as the essential initial step for restoring walls with rising damp.

  • High Breathability & Porosity: Allows free water vapor movement, keeping walls naturally dry.

  • 100% Eco-Friendly Composition: Zero cement content, fully recyclable, and safe for living wellbeing (GreenBuilding).

Fields of Application

  • Bonding Key Coat (Rough Coat): Applied before breathable, dehumidifying, or thermal plasters of the Biocalce range.

  • Substrates: Solid and hollow brick, natural stone, tufa, concrete blocks, and mixed masonry.

  • Historic Restoration: Ideal for listed heritage buildings, traditional masonry, and sustainable architecture.

  • Interior & Exterior Use: Suitable for walls affected by rising damp and salt efflorescence.

Application Instructions

1.Substrate Preparation:Essential for maximum bond strength.
  1. Completely remove old plaster, loose particles, dust, salts, and paint coatings.

  2. Clean the surface thoroughly using pressure washing or a wire brush.

  3. Saturate the substrate with water prior to application (ensure no standing water remains).

2.Mixing:
  1. Mix one 25 kg bag of Biocalce Rinzaffo with clean water (approx. 4.8 liters).

  2. Blend using a low-speed mechanical mixer, free-fall mixer, or rendering machine until smooth and lump-free.

3.Application:
  1. Apply by trowel (flick coat) or rendering machine in a single coat.

  2. Cover the surface partially or fully depending on the substrate type (full coverage on low-absorption or irregular surfaces).

  3. Allow the material to harden sufficiently before applying the main plaster coat (e.g., Biocalce Zoccolatura).
