Mould and Mildew in the Interior of Buildings

Micro organisms such as fungi and bacteria are present in our environment all of the time and are an important, natural part of it. However if they take the form of mould and mildew growing on walls, they rapidly become a problem.

Over the last few years, the problem of mould and mildew inside buildings has become a subject of increasing importance, for a number of reasons. An increasing incidence of damage caused by mould and mildew inside buildings has been recorded due to the use of modern building methods; in addition the medical community has been confronted with an increasing number of people suffering from respiratory diseases as well as allergic reactions caused by exposure to mould and mildew.

Usually paint containing biocides is used to rectify the damage caused by dampness and mould or mildew. These biocides remedy the problem in the short term but are by no means a satisfactory overall solution to the problem. The efficacy of the biocides and fungicides which conventional paints contain quickly tails off and the negative health effects that they cause have in the meantime been proven beyond doubt.

Principles of Operation

Durable mould protection based on Nanotechnology

The Bioni Nature coating represents a quantum leap in the field of paints and coatings. Based on the latest knowledge from the field of nanotechnology, Bioni has for the first time succeeded in developing an inner coating that provides lasting and high resistance to the formation of mould and mildew without affecting the indoor atmosphere. A compound of substances based on nano-silver, developed jointly with the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology, together with the optimum moisture-regulating qualities of the paint that, with the assistance of silicate lightweight fillers, also affects the micro-climate on the painted surface to the disadvantage of micro-organisms, hinder over a long period of time the settlement of micro-organisms thus ensuring preventive resistance to the formation of mould and mildew.

ECO-friendly protection

An additional characteristic of Bioni Nature is that the paint is completely harmless in terms of the hygiene of the indoor environment. This fact has been verified by comprehensive tests conducted by the TÜV Product und Environment Test Institute in Cologne which subsequently awarded the Bioni Nature interior coating the TÜV Rheinland insignia for wall paints and coatings certified for emissions, but has also received impressive backing as a result of the award of the “Environmentally Medically Recommended” certificate from the Committee for Environmental Medicine and Building Hygiene. Bioni Nature also meets the committee’s strict guidelines for the medical assessment of building products (AgBB) and is also suitable and certified for use in indoor areas in accordance with “Procedures to be used in the Medical Assessment of Emissions from Occasional Organic Compounds (VOC and SVOC) in Building Products“.
