The company produces four types of plasters: perlite gypsum plaster, finishing plaster, molding gypsum, and machine applied gypsum plaster. Materials are packed in bags of 30 kilograms.

The company purchases the main raw materials from local producers, while importing chemical additives from Germany, Turkey, Ukraine and South Korea in order to improve the quality and effectiveness of building mixtures.
