Mentis Africa Riblath has a number of uses including a plaster backing on ceilings, walls and stud partitions as well as a permanent shuttering for concrete and for refurbishing damaged or aged masonry walls when a key for rendering is not guaranteed due to disintegration or softening of the wall face.
Riblath has also been used in mining application where ventilation shafts need to be closed off for safety. A false wall is created using Riblath as the medium, the walls can be put in place and removed when required for maintenance.
Mentis Africa Riblath is reinforced with herring bone patterned longitudinal ribs to provide greater tensile strength and offer a high degree key of mechanical bonding with plaster or render for an excellent plaster base for all types of walls and ceilings, and fireproofing of steel beam and columns.
Serving as a guide for plastering and as reinforcement at the corner of a wall before plastering, Mentis Africa Plaster Stop also provides a straight edge and finish for plaster at all openings and abutments.

Mentis Africa Mentlath 213 provides a key and reinforcement for plaster to minimise cracking. Used where gunite is applied, it is the accepted means of keying plaster or vermiculite to steelwork when fireproofing a steel building and is galvanised to prevent corrosion.
Mentex Corner Mesh comprises general purpose galvanised reinforcement strips used in plaster where cracking is likely to occur due to shrinkage.
Mentex Strip Mesh is used along lines of potential weakness such as door and window frame corners and as a backing for plaster over narrow gaps such as service chases. In addition, it is used as a plaster reinforcing to prevent cracking around airbricks and vents, and as a bond between dissimilar materials at crack-prone areas.
