HAND-TROWELED. TEXTURED. TIMELESS.
Feature walls with soft shadow texture
Finoplast is our hand-troweled lime plaster, crafted for surfaces that need to breathe. Its soft, shadowed texture brings a calm, handmade feel to living areas — built for tropical humidity without losing its refined, architectural character.
Hand-troweled surfaces require a clear system for texture, breathability, and the tropical world
Altarize’s Finoplast is a lime-based plaster applied by hand in careful, layered passes — creating a soft shadow texture that shifts subtly with the light, suited to living areas and feature walls that need to breathe.
TAILORED FOR YOUR WALLS
We create hand-crafted, breathable finishes
Texture shaped by hand
Finoplast is applied entirely by hand, with each trowel pass building the soft, shadowed texture that defines the finish. No two walls are identical — the texture responds to the applicator’s technique and the light in the room.
Built for living spaces
As a breathable lime plaster, Finoplast suits living areas and feature walls where comfort and calm matter most. It allows moisture to pass through naturally, keeping interiors dry while offering a tactile, grounded character.
Common Questions
Frequently asked questions
Find answers to the most common questions about our Finoplast finish, application process, and performance in tropical conditions.
What does "hand-troweled" mean for the final look?
Finoplast is applied in layered passes using a trowel, which creates a soft, shadowed texture with subtle variation across the surface — a handmade quality that machine-applied finishes can't replicate.
Is Finoplast suitable for humid climates like Bali?
Yes. As a lime-based plaster, Finoplast is naturally breathable, allowing moisture to pass through rather than get trapped — helping walls stay dry and reducing the risk of mold in humid conditions.
Where is Finoplast typically used?
Finoplast is most often used on interior feature walls and living areas where its soft, textured character can be appreciated up close, though it can also be adapted for select exterior applications.
How does Finoplast compare to Purecote?
Finoplast leans toward a softer, more shadowed texture with a handcrafted feel, while Purecote offers a broader range from smooth to more expressive. Both are breathable mineral finishes and are often used together for contrast within one space.
