Cotton plaster, which you have probably heard a lot about in recent years, is often confused with other textile-based textured coatings. In this article we explain what DEPKA cotton plaster is, its features and what sets it apart from other products.
Definition
What is cotton plaster
DEPKA cotton plaster, a decorative cotton wall coating, is a new-generation interior finish that combines cotton, natural adhesive and decorative natural stone; it is mixed with water and applied to the wall.
It does more than look good: it also offers practical benefits, such as contributing to thermal and sound insulation and a breathable structure. Its fibrous structure covers hairline cracks and small flaws in the wall, and its flexibility means it does not crack.
It comes ready in the bag; a 2 kg pack costs 1,600 TL and it is available in 60 main colours. This is the Türkiye price; for export orders, please contact us.
