€55

For the perfect aesthetic finish on your fireplace project, SILCACON Smoothing Lime Mortar (15kg) is the premier choice for contractors and homeowners across Malta and Gozo. This high-quality, hydraulic-setting lime mortar is specifically formulated to create a silky-smooth, breathable surface on Silca Heat 600C and Silca 250KM construction boards. Given the traditional use of lime-based materials in Maltese architecture, this mortar integrates seamlessly into local homes, offering a natural, white finish that complements both rustic Gozo farmhouses and sleek, modern developments in St. Julian’s. Its superior thermal stability ensures that your fireplace exterior remains pristine and resistant to the high temperatures generated by modern wood burners, providing a durable surface that won’t degrade over time.

Designed for ease of use and professional-grade results, the SILCACON Smoothing Lime Mortar is ideal for achieving a Mediterranean “fine-plaster” look. The 15kg bag provides ample coverage for large fireplace enclosures, allowing for a thin-layer application that is both vapor-permeable and moisture-regulating—essential features for maintaining healthy indoor air quality in the Maltese climate. Once applied over SILCACON lime plaster, this mortar can be felted or smoothed to a high standard, creating the perfect canvas for heat-resistant paints. Whether you are refurbishing a character home in Zebbug or finishing a new build in Mellieħa, choosing SILCACON ensures your fireplace is not only a functional heating source but a stunning architectural centrepiece.
