Rust or Iron staining is a natural problem that can occur when specific individual stones within the product that have high iron content are used for dry-dashing are exposed to the environment. This problem is often increased if the site is in an exposed or coastal region. It is not unusual for the problem to take a number of years to be exposed and there is no way of identifying if the aggregate is affected prior to application. It is not possible to screen the iron content out of the product by using magnets as it is part of the chemical makeup of the aggregate. The aggregates affected by this problem are mostly flint or gravel based type products or aggregates that have usually been quarried from glacial or river deposits. Using Calcined flint aggregates will not eliminate this problem if the raw flint used already has high iron content. Given that iron staining is a natural occurrence no guarantee can be given or liability accepted for areas affected by iron staining.
We only select aggregates from quarries that have proven records of low iron content. Products that may contain iron traces are marked with an "Fe" icon in our standard products listing above. Advice can be given as to the best course of action required to treat any problematic areas. Whilst iron staining can cosmetically spoil the appearance of the affected areas it has no detrimental effect on the render itself. Only aggregates selected from our stain free range can ensure that there is a very low risk of any problems occuring.
