Stone

Stone, plaster and concrete are mineral surfaces which are substantial parts of our familiar surroundings. Normally we live in houses consisting of bricks which are covered with plaster. By adsorbing humidity and releasing it in certain doses this process contributes to our micro climate in which we feel good.

But also houses give shelter against atmospheric conditions and influences from the environment. Although these materials appear robust and durable we still have to take care about their functionality. Because aggressive environmental influences and contamination by graffiti can affect the function and the aesthetic of those surfaces tremendously.

The np-coatings, taylor-made for mineral surfaces, do not derogate the natural characteristics such as water absorption, breath ability and thermal insulation. Additional valuable properties such as

• Graffiti protection
• Protection against aggressive environmental influences
• Hydrophobicity
• Antifouling (algae and mold)
• Easy-to-Clean

can be easily and effortless achieved and thus contribute to the preservation of the value of buildings. Public buildings and facades obtain additional protection. Memorials and old buildings worth to obtain value can get comprehensive protection and can be cleaned off with mild cleaning agents.
