Knauf Spray Plaster System in Devon & Cornwall

At Drywall Finishings Ltd, we provide professional installations of the Knauf spray plaster (Airless Finish) system across Devon and Cornwall. This modern approach offers a faster, smoother alternative to traditional plastering techniques, ideal for both large commercial developments and residential upgrades.

What Is Knauf Spray Plaster (Airless Finish)?

Knauf’s Airless Finish is a ready-mixed, spray-applied alternative to traditional gypsum plaster, designed for internal walls and ceilings. It is machine-applied in thin 1–2 mm coats and dries within approximately 12 to 24 hours depending on humidity and ventilation.

Because it comes pre-mixed, there’s no need for onsite mixing or added water—reducing waste and speeding up application.

Benefits of Knauf Spray Plaster

  • Speed & Efficiency: Two operatives can cover large areas—200–250 m² per day—faster than conventional skimming methods.

  • Low Waste: Wastage is typically less than 1%. Excess material can even be recycled back into the machine.

  • Uniform, Smooth Finish: Offers a consistent, level surface ideal for painting or decoration.

  • Reduced Labour & Water Use: Pre-mixed delivery removes the need for onsite water supply and reduces material handling.

  • Quicker Follow-up Trades: With fast drying times, decorators and secondary trades can begin sooner.

Commercial & Business Applications

Knauf spray plaster is ideal for commercial, institutional, and large-scale residential developments—where speed, consistency, and quality are crucial. It works particularly well for offices, schools, apartment blocks, and refurbishment projects in Devon & Cornwall.

We have used it in projects where traditional methods would slow down the schedule, enabling faster handovers and less disruption. The system also minimizes on-site labour and material handling costs, making it a cost-effective choice for contractors and developers.
