Blu Clad Bluclad is the first breakthrough asbestos-free board technology classified as Calcium Silicate board. Blu Clad is a flat Class O building board with outstanding dimensional stability. Represents good value for your money. It can be used as substrate for a variety of thin coat polymeric renders, textured finishes & other surface coatings. Bluclad can also be used to provide a seamless finish. Bluclad is available in a standard 10mm thickness, it is off white in colour & has a smooth surface on the front & textured on the reverse. The smooth face is for painting & the textured is for thin coat polymeric renders. Recommended Applications Can also be used within an insulated render system. Fixing Blu Clad can be installed using either countersunk screws (number 6
- 8) or nails (5mm minimum head diameter). Blu Clad should be fixed to support studs at maximum 600mm centres. Blu Clad can be finished with this thin coat polymeric renders or other surface coating. Finishing Where seamless finishes are required, boards should be installed "stretch bond" fashion, i.e. long edges horizontal & vertical edges staggered. Note: Blu Clad must be decorated for external use.
