Capillary rising damp and remedies with thermal insulation

A common challenge found in many historic or monumental buildings is the deterioration caused by rising damp, the presence of dissolved salts in masonry, and the lack of adequate thermal insulation. These factors not only compromise the structural integrity of buildings, but also the living comfort and preservation of historical and cultural heritage.

The most common causes leading to deterioration a masonry can be traced to;

• Capillary or ascending dampness, from the subsurface attracted to masonry by capillary action.

• Condensation moisture, is the moisture that can condense within 'materials.

• Seismic stresses, passage of heavy vehicles or hydrostatic thrusts and thermal expansion " thermal stress," generate microcracking of finishes leading to water infiltration.

These are all causes that can be associated with a disintegrating effect on masonry structures and their finishes.

The anti-saline and anti-mold finishing system Dwall stands out for its durability and reliability over time, offering a long-term remedy for managing deterioration caused by rising damp and the presence of salts. This is critical for historic and monumental buildings, where preservation of architectural heritage is a top priority.

The heart of this revolutionary technology lies in thelow mineral thickness basalt thermal insulation Nobilium Thermalpanel, which not only acts as an effective thermal insulator, but also as a key element in controlling rising damp and preventing the formation of salts. This innovative material offers high resistance to heat transmission and a remarkable ability to absorb and dissipate moisture, thus helping to maintain a healthy and comfortable indoor environment.

This pioneering creation is designed to exceed expectations, redefining how we address the challenges associated with rehabilitating our masonry plagued by the phenomenon of salts and capillary rise of 'moisture.

The heart of the anti-saline and anti-mold dehumidifying finishing system Dwall is its dry, completely water-free design, which opens the door to the controlled flow of moisture migration. This feature not only optimizes the performance of the coating but also defeats condensation between cold masonry and warm air, promoting a healthier and more resilient indoor environment.

A distinctive aspect of the system Dwall is its design as a low elastic modulus package, which can successfully absorb micro stresses in the structure. This feature not only increases the longevity of the constructions but also contributes to long-lasting structural stability.

Join us on this exciting journey to a new era of efficiency and durability. #InnovationDwall #Historic_Restoration_of_the_Future #Sustainability_Innovation
