Kilwaughter Minerals Investment in Innovation Set to Transform Homebuilding Market with New Product Launch

Kilwaughter Minerals brand, K Rend, is set to revolutionise the UK and Ireland housebuilder market with an innovative new one-coat, one-pass render product, K Mono.

The unique, through coloured render product, developed in collaboration with industry leading applicators and machine operators, is designed for seamless application by both traditional diesel and electric spray machines.

Listening to customer needs has led to market-leading innovation with exceptional performance on setting times and an extended product set time window creating unrivalled flexibility and efficiency.

This latest innovation comes from Kilwaughter’s sustained R&D investment where technology experts worked with market-led insight to target key customer pain points and push the boundaries of product workability and ease of application.

The introduction of this product to market comes as the construction sector enjoys a bounce back from the impact of the global pandemic and the number of new houses being built continues on an upward trajectory.

Speaking at the product launch, Caroline Rowley, Head of Business Development at Kilwaughter Minerals, said:

“For Kilwaughter Minerals, our primary focus is happy customers and that means being an innovation leader which relies on long-term investment and doing things differently, while working harder than ever to understand what will deliver real gains for our customers.

"Using our R&D expertise, we have achieved something special with K Mono, creating an exceptional product with the credentials to transform the efficiency by which properties are rendered in regional and national markets.”

Detailing further the unique proposition and customer-centric creation of K Mono, Caroline continued:

“K Mono has been specifically manufactured to offer our customers a premium solution with significant time and cost savings, along with unparalleled results in terms of setting time and ease of application.

“We are particularly thrilled to introduce it to market with such strong backing from a range of partners including machine sellers and merchants.”
