Hessian

Hessian, also known as burlap, is a loose-woven natural fabric made from the fibres of the jute plant. It is a robust, reusable material widely used in the construction industry for the curing and protection of fresh mortars, especially in traditional lime work. Known for its ability to withstand repeated wetting and drying, hessian is the material of choice for safeguarding lime mortars and renders during the critical curing phase

• ✅ Protects from Frost: In colder months, hessian acts as a frost blanket, shielding fresh lime work from freezing damage

• ✅ Prevents Rapid Drying: When dampened in warmer conditions, hessian creates a humid microclimate, slowing down moisture evaporation and preventing mortar failure

• ✅ Acts as a Windbreak: Reduces wind-induced drying, especially on exposed elevations
