KILSARAN HELPS TO ADD THE `CHIC` TO KILDARE VILLAGE.
Kilsaran International, a leading manufacturer
of paving and concrete products, was proud to
have been one of the main suppliers of both the
external cladding and paving materials to the
new Chic Outlet Shopping® Villages by Value
Retail, located in the stunning Kildare Village
approximately 1 hour from Dublin Centre.
supplier of their Ceresit CT174 Render combined
with a bespoke Ceresit CT48 Silicone Paint to
meet the architects specification. This wasn`t
the only specialist element to the project as the
Ceresit render system provided by Kilsaran has a
few unique qualities that help make it a stand out
choice.
Kildare Village, one of nine Chic Outlet Shopping®
Villages across Europe, offers luxury outlet
boutiques such as; Anya Hindmarch, Brooks
Brothers, Cath Kidston, Furla, Lulu Guinness,
Pandora and Wolford.
The overall specification for the facades used a
Magnesium Silicate-Render Carrier Board coated
with Kilsaran`s Ceresit CT87 Base-coat with
reinforcing glass fibre mesh. This 4mm ultra-thin
light weight base coat has great waterproofing
properties as well as being super flexible.
The Chic Outlet Village is designed to give the
shopper a charming open-air ‘village’ setting
creating a luxurious shopping experience and an
enjoyable day out for its visitors.
The village style design and unique shopping
atmosphere is enhanced by the stunning buildings
that have been beautifully designed by the design
team, Lyons + Sleeman + Hoare Architects. The
attention to detail to get this scheme to the high
standards demanded by the client is one of the
main attributes to the charm and character of this
project. The architect specified bespoke colour
facades throughout the village and Kilsaran were
delighted to have been chosen as preferred

This was then perfectly partnered with Ceresit
CT174 Render and the bespoke Ceresit CT48
Silicone Paint. The CT174 render has a Silicatesilicone textured finish which makes this system
well suited to projects were there needs to be long
term durability and a low maintenance programs
due to either access or cost.
The products and services from Kilsaran didn’t
stop with just the facades. Brendan Condron,
Kilsaran`s Specification Manager for Ireland
states - “Kilsaran were also brought on-board to
help with the design and specification of the hard
landscaping to the car park and main footpaths

around the village. The specification for the footpaths was for a
natural stone, we took this opportunity to offer our superb range
of Streetscape bedding and mortar materials.
The car park saw the specification for over 5000sqm of
Kilsaran`s Clima-pave Slane 200x100x80mm in the popular
Charcoal and Curragh gold.
A permeable paving system has many added benefits,
continues Brendan. Permeable paving (Clima-pave) helps
eliminates flood water retention, awkward puddles and
hazardous patches of ice meaning the area can be used in all
climatic conditions with confidence. Another large benefit to
using permeable paving is the reduction in the maintenance
schedule, there is significantly less weed growth with a
permeable paving system over conventional paving. This in
turn helps to save time and money over the whole life cycle
of the project, something that the client was very keen on, a
sustainable public space that would stay looking chic for a long
time”.
With a reputation for high quality, competitive products and
best in class support and guidance, it was an easy decision for
Collen Construction to use Kilsaran products and work with the
design team Lyons + Sleeman + Hoare Architects, helping to
develop relationships that all parties will enjoy over the years to
come.
The Permeable paving design for the car park was
as followed;
• 80mm Clima-pave Slane, Curragh Gold and Charcoal
• 50mm of 2-6.3mm Grit (Bedding Material)
• 350mm of 20-4mm CGA (Coarse Graded Aggregate)
• Geotextile membrane
