Decorative plaster in the kitchen: the pros and cons

Each decorative material that is applied to the walls has its own characteristics and advantages, and plaster is no exception. It is only important to remember that its characteristics and operational features differ depending on the selected type and type of base.

Decorative plaster has the following advantages:

1. The ability to apply to any coating, including drywall, concrete, wood and even iron.
2. Does not have seams and joints, as when using panels or wallpaper.
3. There is no need to level the coating, as before applying a decorative coating, since the relief gives the plaster a special appearance.
4. The material allows the walls to breathe, as a result of which it is less affected by external factors.
5. Mineral impurities in the composition prevent the development of fungus and mold, which is especially important in the kitchen.
6. The coating is one of the most durable and wear-resistant, easily withstands the peculiarities of kitchen use.
7. The plaster is easy to clean in case of contamination with grease, is not afraid of moisture.
8. Easy to repair and restore if any fragment is deformed or chipped.

Among the minuses, it is necessary to note the rather high cost of the coating, which is relatively more expensive than paint, wallpaper or tile. In addition, if the building is new, it is better not to use plaster, as the walls will shrink and it will crack. And silicate-based materials require a preliminary, high-quality primer.

Types of decorative coatings for the kitchen

In modern times, not only textured plaster in the kitchen can be used, but also various imitations of stone, concrete and other types of coatings.

Marble plaster in the kitchen

Option for walls, which is distinguished by high-quality imitation of natural marble. And all thanks to the content of particles of marble dust in the solution, which help to create patterns, streaks, waves and "veins", as on natural plates. They can have small or vice versa, larger veins, glossy or matte texture.
We offer options such as Veneziano Style, Stucco Art, Murano and more.

Decorative coating for concrete

This option looks great in rooms, the interior of which is made in the styles of loft, hi-tech, techno, minimalism and others. It is a mortar that mimics the natural texture of concrete with a raw, stylish finish.
Concrete-like plasters have different textures and colors, they can be homogeneous or vice versa, contain smears of different colors, rust stains and metallic sheen.
Such coatings include Travertino Style, Toscana, Castello and others.

Silk plaster in the kitchen

In their composition, such solutions have fragments of mother-of-pearl, which provides a rich, original shine and texture similar to velvet. As a result, after application, the walls look as if they were covered with a fabric that has a wet, glossy sheen. The silk blend is versatile and can suit any interior design - from classic to hi-tech.
We offer several options for silk solutions in the form of Mirage, Illusion, Illusion Fantasy and others.

Mosaic plasters

This category includes textured coatings that have an original texture, suitable for classic or loft design. The bark beetle in the kitchen is a common option, which contains in its composition a specialized crumb of minerals, which, after application, allows you to create original furrows characteristic of a tree eaten by beetles.
Another option is a lamb in the kitchen. Unlike the previous type, it does not create furrows, but curls that visually resemble lamb's wool. Well suited for walls that do not touch plates and work equipment.

Stone look finish

Decorative coating that imitates natural stone is great for a classic interior and minimalism. With its appearance, it imitates the relief of stones, for example, shell rock turned by waves and not only. The composition contains lime particles, which give porosity and irregularities after application.
These options include our plasters Travertino Style, Grotto, Toscana, Art Stone and others.
