Movement Beads

Movement beads are used to allow controlled expansion and contraction within plaster and render finishes. They help absorb movement caused by temperature changes, moisture, or structural shifts, reducing the risk of cracking across large or continuous surfaces.

Commonly installed in long wall runs, junctions, and areas where different materials meet, movement beads create a defined point where stress can be safely managed. Available in galvanised steel, stainless steel, and uPVC, these beads suit a wide range of internal and external applications. Selecting the correct material ensures compatibility with the environment and long-term performance.

Movement beads are widely used in plasterboard, plastering, and rendering projects where durability and finish quality matter. Correct positioning and installation help maintain clean lines while allowing the surface to move naturally over time.
