Insulcote

Insulcote

Insulcote is applied directly on brick or rough plaster to create a breathable insulating layer. It improves thermal and acoustic resistance while reducing crack risk, and forms a stable foundation for finishing coats such as Purecote or Finoplast. After curing, the surface performs reliably in tropical environments, helping buildings stay comfortable and dry over time.

The process

Our signature lighting design process

01

Site-inspection

We evaluate the substrate, climate exposure, and functional needs—such as insulation level, moisture regulation, or crack resistance—so the Insulcote system is specified correctly from the start.

02

Surface preparation

The surface is cleaned and keyed for bonding. Proper preparation ensures the base coat locks into the substrate and performs consistently over time.

03

Fiber & mix selection + sampling

We choose the plant-fiber blend based on the performance target, then prepare sample panels to confirm texture direction and system thickness.

04

Insulcote base coat application

Insulcote is applied directly on brick or rough plaster at the required thickness, forming a breathable insulating layer and a strong foundation for finishing coats.

05

Curing, finishing readiness & aftercare

After curing, the surface is ready for Purecote/Finoplast finishing, or can be left exposed for a natural fiber-textured look. We guide final timing and long-term care.

Meet the People Behind Altarize

We’re a small, dedicated team of material specialists, applicators, and project partners who believe great spaces start with great surfaces. From early consultation to on-site application, we work closely with designers, homeowners, and contractors to make sure every finish performs beautifully in tropical conditions. We care about the details—how a wall breathes, how a surface ages, and how a texture feels in real life. That’s why we stay hands-on through every project, guiding choices, preparing samples, and ensuring each layer is applied with precision.
