Krohvimört

Krohvimört is a building material used in construction, primarily for interior plastering and finishing. It is a dry mortar mix that is mixed with water on-site before application. The composition of krohvimört typically includes gypsum, lime, sand, and various additives that control setting time, workability, and adhesion. Gypsum is a key component, providing a smooth finish and rapid drying properties, while lime contributes to its plasticity and breathability.

The primary function of krohvimört is to create a uniform, smooth surface on walls and ceilings, preparing them for subsequent decoration such as painting or wallpapering. It can be applied in a single layer or in multiple coats depending on the desired finish and the condition of the substrate. Its ease of application and fast drying time make it a popular choice for both professional tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts. Krohvimört is known for its ability to fill minor imperfections and create a solid base. It is generally not recommended for exterior use or in areas with prolonged high moisture exposure, as gypsum-based materials can degrade under such conditions. Proper surface preparation, including cleaning and priming, is important for optimal adhesion and performance.
