GLOSSARY TERM

Elastomeric Paint

A flexible, rubber-like paint that can expand and contract with surface movement.

INFO

What it is

Elastomeric paint is a thick, flexible coating that behaves like a thin rubber film. It can stretch and return to shape as the surface beneath expands and contracts.

Why it matters

Because it flexes rather than cracks, elastomeric paint bridges fine cracks and copes with building movement, giving a durable, weatherproof finish on surfaces that rigid coatings would struggle with.

Where it is used on a project

Well suited to exterior masonry, render, and facades exposed to weather and movement, where waterproofing and crack resistance are important.

How NECC approaches it

Where a surface needs flexibility and weather protection, we can specify and apply elastomeric systems, giving a resilient finish that moves with the building.
