Plastertuotteissa

Plastertuotteissa is a Finnish term that translates to "in plaster products" or "plaster products" when referring to items made from or containing plaster. Plaster itself is a building material used for coating walls and ceilings, for creating decorative elements, and for casting. In its basic form, plaster is typically made from gypsum, lime, or cement, mixed with water to form a paste that hardens upon drying.

The term "plastertuotteissa" can encompass a wide range of items. This includes finished building materials like plasterboard (kipsilevy), which is a common material for interior walls and ceilings. It also refers to decorative plaster elements such as cornices, ceiling roses, and moldings (rappauskoristeet). Furthermore, it can extend to plaster casts used in art, sculpture, and even for medical purposes like orthopedic casts. The application of plaster is a skilled trade, and the quality of plaster products often depends on the expertise of the manufacturer and the application method. Finnish construction and design often incorporate plaster for its aesthetic qualities and its role in creating smooth, finished surfaces.
