Lightweight cladding, acrylic renders, decorative finishes, and architectural profiles — supplied to builders and applicators across Adelaide and South Australia.

Supplying Adelaide’s Building Industry Since 1983

Unitex has been manufacturing and supplying building products to Australian builders, plasterers, and applicators for over 42 years. In Adelaide and across South Australia, Unitex products are used on residential and commercial projects of all scales — from single-dwelling new builds and multi-unit developments through to commercial facades and renovation projects.

Adelaide’s climate — hot, dry summers with temperature extremes and cool winters — places genuine thermal demands on external wall systems. The Unitex Base Board lightweight cladding system addresses those demands directly, delivering high R-values that reduce heating and cooling loads throughout the year. For South Australian builders working to meet energy efficiency requirements under the NCC, the thermal performance of the Unitex system is a practical compliance advantage.

Unitex products are available for pickup from the Unitex Render Warehouse (URW) branch at 2/54-56 Cavan Road, Dry Creek SA 5094, open Monday to Friday from 6:00am. Delivery is also available to job sites across Adelaide and South Australia.

Unitex Products for Adelaide Builders and Applicators

Lightweight Cladding Systems

The Unitex Base Board System is a CodeMark-accredited External Insulation and Finishing System (EIFS) available in cavity and non-cavity configurations. It is significantly lighter than brick veneer and approximately 400% more energy efficient than equivalent-cost rendered brick veneer — a compelling advantage for Adelaide builders managing energy rating requirements. BAL 29 and BAL 40 certified system configurations are available for projects in bushfire-prone areas across the Adelaide Hills and greater South Australia.

Base Coat Renders

Unitex manufactures a comprehensive range of polymer-modified base coat renders, including non-combustible products certified to AS 1530.1. The range covers EPS cladding systems, brickwork, blockwork, fibre cement sheeting, and AAC panels — with powder and pre-mixed wet options to suit different site conditions and application preferences.

Textures & Finishes

From fine sand textures to coarse graffiato, roll-on systems to the advanced Tanami polished concrete finish and Veneto mineral coloured finish — the Unitex texture range gives Adelaide builders and applicators the design flexibility to deliver contemporary and traditional facades without compromising on durability or weather resistance.

Uni-Shape® Profiles & Columns

The Uni-Shape® architectural profile range covers columns, window architraves, keystones, corbels, parapets, stringers, pilasters, and more — in lightweight EPS with a pre-applied render coating. Uni-Shape® profiles install faster than masonry alternatives and integrate seamlessly with the Unitex render system, giving Adelaide builders and their clients genuine architectural character without the cost and complexity of traditional detailing.

Paints, Primers & Sealers

Unitex substrate sealers (Cembond, Uni-Substrate Sealer), protective topcoats (Uni-PTC), and surface sealers (Dry Seal) complete the Unitex render system — ensuring correct preparation, adhesion, and long-term surface protection for Adelaide projects across all exposure conditions.

Why Adelaide Builders Choose Unitex

South Australia’s energy efficiency requirements and climate conditions make the thermal performance of external wall systems a genuine priority. The Unitex Base Board System delivers high R-values from the cladding layer alone — reducing the engineering required to meet NatHERS targets and simplifying the compliance pathway for builders and their energy assessors.

The full CodeMark, BRANZ, and BRAC accreditation portfolio means Adelaide builders can specify Unitex cladding systems with complete confidence that the system is deemed to satisfy all NCC/BCA requirements. No additional engineering approval, no alternative solution pathway — just a proven, accredited system with 42 years of performance history behind it.

For projects in bushfire-prone areas across the Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale, and the broader South Australian rural fringe, the BAL 29 and BAL 40 certified Unitex system configurations provide access to markets that unaccredited cladding products cannot serve.

Unitex is Australian-made. Every product in the Unitex range is manufactured at the Dandenong facility in Victoria using quality Australian raw materials. Local manufacturing means consistent supply, shorter lead times, and direct technical support from a team that understands Australian construction conditions — including South Australia’s specific climate and building environment.
