Plastic Render Beads

Plastic render beads, also known as render beads, are a vital component in achieving a professional and long-lasting finish for your rendering projects. These lightweight and versatile profiles are strategically placed during the rendering process to:

Protect Edges: By creating a reinforced barrier, plastic render beads safeguard vulnerable corners and edges from cracks, chips, and impact damage. This is particularly important for external renders exposed to weather elements.
Ensure Straight Lines: Plastic render beads act as a guide, ensuring your render application follows a clean and precise line. This is especially beneficial for creating sharp corners (using angle beads) or straight transitions between surfaces (using stop beads).
Improve Overall Strength: The presence of plastic render beads adds rigidity to the render, minimizing the risk of future cracking and movement.

We offer a variety of plastic render beads to cater to your specific requirements, including:

LIKOV PVC Angle Bead 2.5m For 10mm Render P-H PVC 10 White: This versatile angle bead provides excellent protection for external corners, resulting in a crisp and defined finish.
LIKOV PVC Stop Bead 2.5m For 10mm Render P-U PVC 10 White: Ideal for creating clean transitions between walls, ceilings, soffits, or openings, this stop bead ensures a professional-looking edge.
LIKOV PVC Drip Bead 2.5m For 10mm Render P-B PVC 10 White: Designed to divert rainwater away from the wall, this drip bead helps prevent moisture ingress and potential damage.
LIKOV PVC Corner Bead Mesh 100x100x2.5m White LK PVC 100: This corner bead mesh offers additional reinforcement for external corners, particularly beneficial for areas prone to impact.
LIKOV PVC Expansion Bead Mesh White LD - LI 06 2.5m: This expansion bead helps accommodate movement within the render caused by temperature changes, minimizing the risk of cracking.

What type of plastic render bead should I use for my project?

The type of plastic render bead you need will depend on your specific project requirements. Here's a quick guide:

Angle Bead: For creating sharp and defined external corners.
Stop Bead: For creating clean transitions between different surfaces.
Drip Bead: To divert rainwater away from the wall.
Corner Bead Mesh: For additional reinforcement of external corners in high-impact areas.
Expansion Bead: To accommodate movement within the render caused by temperature changes.
