Italian Eco Style

We offer a range of products made in Italy on our behalf that are high end but far more competitive than the existing materials available in NZ, offering better value in both price and finish product.

In 2017 we officially started to import, apply and distribute our plasters in Auckland and the rest of the country under Advance Spirito Libero Brand.  The same product used back home for centuries is now available here in New Zealand.

Italian Eco Style also runs courses for Applicators to teach local plasterers or anyone that intends to learn about limestone plasters and renders how to work the materials and create amazing mural effects (split stone, age stone, marble look, washed wall, Tuscan villa and many more).

We project manage our applications in Auckland, suggesting textures, colours, shades and materials to best suit our client’s needs.  With every project it is important to consider where natural light is coming from along with internal domestic lighting.   The area of the house is the product required and/or best suited for and what type of finish is the client wanting.

We can bespoke a wall, the whole room, kitchens and bathrooms including box showers and floors. Completely transforming an existing space. We have developed a technique that allows us to go over existing tiles in your bathroom or kitchen preventing the need to remove them in any renovation.  Once we are finished you would never know the tiles were there in the first place.

Paolo and Luca have both been living in New Zealand for over a decade now. Having lived in many homes that have had health issues due to a collection of environmental factors we often found ourselves talking about the benefits of the traditional plaster techniques passed down to us from our father.

Typically, acrylic and water-based sealers are widely used within the industry.  This method seals damp and mould into wall cavities allowing it to grow and spread.  Plaster allows the walls to breathe creating a more even temperature greatly reducing the risk and spread of mould spores.

Also the composition of the limestone powder which is very alkaline, makes it difficult for spores to propagate on plastered surfaces 

Most of our decorative plasters and renders are designed to be applied and finished with 1 coat only, saving time for both the applicator and the client. Due to the quality of the materials used to manufacture our products and the expertise of our technicians in Italy we now have the most eco-friendly and versatile plasters and renders available in NZ, combining durability and style all at once.

Venetian Plaster can be applied to both interior and exterior surfaces.  Our limestone and marble plasters are completely eco-friendly and natural non-flammable products. All our plasters can be made water resistant or water proof depending on where the applications are required.  Our renders are made water proof by utilising siloxane paint ( natural silicate paint ) in order to maintain a healthy building with that European aged look.

Our products can be applied to almost every surface.  We can re-coat existing tiles on walls and floors, entrance/bathroom/kitchen - avoiding unnecessary demolition, dust, days of work, re-plaster walls, all of which involves more time and expense.

Advance Spirito Libero plasters is excited to share our European level of craftmanship and superior product materials with the New Zealand market.

The big difference between what is on offer already in NZ and the Advanced Spirito Libero range is the fact that we have thorough experience and knowledge of the materials and composition.  We were born where the products are made and our application experience back dates to the 1960’s.
