Two intervention methodologies compared to combat rising damp

Rising damp and condensation are phenomena found in many historic buildings that exacerbate the state of seismic vulnerability and livability of those dwellings, compromising not only the structural integrity of the masonry but also the comfort of the occupants, increasing the risk of deterioration of materials, promoting the formation of mold, and damaging historic finishes and decorations.

Hiding the problem is certainly not the best remedy, which often aggravates the situation by creating rotting conditions, foul odors, and the possibility of insect nesting, further compromising the health of the occupants by necessitating more invasive and costly maintenance work in the long run.

Dwall acts as a façade cladding adhered to the masonry, offering a safe and durable solution to the problem, even in cases where capillary rise interruption or mechanical ventilation are not feasible.

The anti-molddehumidifying coating Dwall is designed to fight moisture and prevent mold growth on walls. This product creates an effective barrier against moisture, promoting surface breathability and maintaining a healthy environment.

Its main features include:

1. Active Dehumidification: Helps reduce indoor humidity, creating a favorable microclimate.

2. Anti-mold: Contains specific natural agents that prevent the formation of mold and mildew.

3. Breathability: Allows vapor migration by preventing moisture stagnation.

4. Ease of Application: It can be applied to various surfaces, such as plaster, masonry and other building materials.

5. Aesthetics: Available in various finishes, it allows you to customize the appearance of walls.

In summary, Dwall is an effective solution for those who wish to keep rooms dry and healthy while protecting surfaces from moisture-related problems.
