polochonnage > fibrous plaster
Explanation:
I think it must be a typo for polochonnage:

"(Construction), (Plâtrerie) Renforcement de suspentes ou de joints par un plâtre liquide armé de fibres.
En l’absence d’appréciation technique d’expérimentation (Atex), Bureau Veritas et Apave n’ont pas donné leur feu vert à la technique du polochonnage, utilisée par les staffeurs depuis le XVe siècle pour renforcer des suspentes avec un plâtre liquide armé d’une fibre végétale."
https://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/polochonnage

"Glue, fibrous plaster (****)
[...]
F: polochonnage
EN: fibrous plaster filling"
https://www.swegon.com/Global/PDFs/Fire dampers/Dampers/_fi/...

I'm not sure whether they're referring to a filling in your case. Maybe best just to put "fibrous plaster", or maybe "fibrous plaster reinforcement".
