Hello, I have been trying for months to find out if there is an alternative to gypsum plaster for interior walls.
We currently live in a newly built house (gypsum plaster) and it always feels very, very dry.
I’m someone who is quite sensitive and notices these things.
Now I am considering using lime-cement plaster (a finer version) or lime plaster, and I am looking for other homeowners who have had issues with these materials.
I hope to get information here from people who do not have gypsum plaster in their living spaces.
P.S. I recently visited a newly plastered house (cold cement plaster) and I was able to breathe much easier.
However, I am still hesitant to give the “go-ahead” to my plasterer.

Yes! In a household with smokers, even the lime plaster sometimes causes coughing.If plaster could convert CO2, then we should start plastering entire landscapes with it to solve the climate problem! 😀A

At least for a certain period of time.

We usually plaster with lime-cement plaster because it is harder and more resistant to mold. However, since we have never had mold in the house before, neither with the old plasters nor now, I can’t really comment on its effectiveness in this regard. We have used gypsum plaster only occasionally. In terms of handling, I also can’t identify any significant differences.
Thank you. I had asked about window reveals in another thread. Here, I will try using a lime-cement plaster.
Akurit MEP or Weber lime-cement lightweight plaster IP 18E. (I will see how thin it can be applied smoothly in millimeters. According to the specifications, at least 10mm (0.4 inches) on the inside or 20mm (0.8 inches) on the outside). Less would, of course, be ideal.
