The Lime Lab

The Lime Lab is our research department.

It’s the place where we create new lime-based products, improve existing ones, and look for even better ways of using lime products in green building.

Lime Green's team of scientists, technicians and building specialists constantly analyse and refine the formulation of our products, to ensure they can always meet the needs of self-builders, tradespeople, architects and specifiers.

It's this attention to detail that has made Lime Green a leading innovator in the marketplace – enabling us to develop products like our Ultra range of renders and plasters, which incorporates insulating glass beads.

"Another innovation is our Warmshell natural insulation range. This high-insulation structural system that can be either retro-fitted to poorly insulated older properties, or specified to give new timber-framed buildings even better thermal performance. With the focus on the environment, and initiatives like the Government's ‘Green Deal', more people are looking for effective insulation systems."

At the same time, we work closely with the conservation of older properties – creating uniquely-specified lime grouts, lime mortars, lime renders and lime plasters that maintain and complement the original integrity of the buildings.
