5 REASONS TO PREFER NATURAL FINISHING PRODUCTS.
The home as a whole is your face and most truly reflects your awareness of the environment, nature, and health. Today, it may be customary for you to go to
CREATE AN OASIS OF NATURE AND HEALTH!
Since 2006, UKU’s natural materials have helped create nature-inspired and harmonious living environments, built on tradition and years of research and testing.
Reusable
You can create a unique and lasting home while knowing that your choices are not harming the planet. For example, the clay plaster on the wall can be reused in another room or residence. So you can say that you can take your plaster with you when you move.
Compostable
UKU plasters and paints do not require special conditions for disposal. After use, the leftover mixture can be returned to nature, as our products are made of natural materials that do not harm the environment and create harmony between home, nature and people.
Chemical and VOC free
The plasters and paints produced by UKU are 100% natural, made from clay or lime. This means that they do not contain any chemicals or VOCs, ensuring a clean and healthy indoor climate in every home.

Resources for the Future
At the Tallinn Architecture Biennale (TAB), Saviukumaja highlights the importance of traditional and locally sourced natural materials by contributing to Déchelette Architecture’s project, which focuses on local natural building materials and techniques.
The installation, “,” offered an immersive experience where visitors moved among rammed-earth columns combined with metal and wood fragments. Each column produced sounds that reflected the materials used, creating a rhythmic and sensory experience in the space.
The project blended ancient materials and techniques with industrial elements, showcasing the potential of natural materials and traditional craftsmanship in the future of carbon-free architecture.
Marko Kikas, founder of Saviukumaja, was pleased to contribute the rammed-earth mixture for the installation, seeing materials like clay and lime increasingly recognized and used by architects as legitimate, traditional, and natural building resources.

From Nordic Chill to Desert Heat – UKU Stands Strong
It’s been a while since we wrapped up one of our most technically demanding projects – right in the heart of the Arabian desert.
To meet the unique challenges of this environment, we developed a new elastic plastering system – UKUFLEX – designed to adapt to the movement of GRC (glassfibre reinforced concrete) without cracking. This system allows for up to 4mm of structural movement while maintaining a flawless finish.
In total, over 9,000 m² of marble lime plaster was applied by UKUMasters, both indoors and outdoors. For the bathrooms, we also used UKU’s traditional Tadelakt, known for its durability and water resistance.
• Whether in Nordic frost or desert extremes, our natural materials like lime and clay perform with grace – rooted in ancient building traditions, trusted in the modern world.
• Our masters are ready to craft tailor-made solutions for your project – ensuring the right system for the right surface, wherever you build.
👉 Contact us and let’s create something enduring, beautiful, and sustainable – a natural building experience to remember, one that benefits you and those around you.

UKU natural plasters, putties, and paints have been gliding under our team's trowels and brushes for over 10 years. UKU plasters are environmentally friendly and do not burden nature. By using UKU materials, you can be sure to find only pure nature there. Do a simple test yourself: when mixed, the natural plaster does not harden when left standing in a bucket. Being familiar with finishing on a daily basis, it is no secret how important it is to have fast access to materials. When it comes to UKU materials, we can only sing praises and send them towards Mooste. UKU's great achievement can be considered bringing fine finishing plasters to Estonia, starting from 2011. This provides balance and availability, instead of unattainably high-priced imported plasters. Thanks to a domestic manufacturer, fine finishing plasters are easily accessible, and the quality of all plastering work has grown exponentially.
