Example of Conservative Restoration carried out with SurfaPore R

The bell tower of the new church, designed by Mons.Gabriele Cecco, was protected from the degradation caused by water and the consequences that derive from it, using the nanotechnological product SurfaPore R by NanoPhos SA, water-repellent, specially designed for application on face-to-face bricks. A concrete example of the new concept of re-applicability that is outlined in the monumental conservative restoration with SurfaPore R.

SurfaPore R, in fact, is an innovative water-repellent based on nanotechnology, specially designed to be absorbed by the surface: the nano particles of Silicon, conveyed by water, are capillarized by the bricks arranged uniformly, bonding in an "atomic" way to the structure, become an integral part of it and make the surface water-repellent, all this without creating any barrier, without changing the original appearance of the surface and without

This ensures that there is no salt build-up below the treatment, and in contrast to old plastic or silicone based materials, surfaPore R is significantly more resistant to UV rays, since it does not suffer the degradation of the sun, its durability is significantly longer.

SurfaPore R maintains the aesthetics of clay surfaces and protects them from water and aging. SurfaPore R is designed to "adapt" to the natural structure and properties of clay-based surfaces. After application of SurfaPore R, the clay surfaces repel water and remain dry even after rain. By removing water, the roof and clay-based surfaces are protected from "green" and ruptures caused by frost.
