Volteco Waterproofing Design Protection and renovation facades and walls

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Waterproofing design for facades and masonry is essential to prevent structural and aesthetic damage to buildings. Materials such as reinforced concrete, plaster, and brick are susceptible to environmental factors, which can lead to issues like plaster detachment and structural collapse.
Enemies of the Facade
Facades are threatened by elements such as rain, smog, cold, wind, humidity, chemical agents, gas, ice, pollution, heat, aggressive vapors, and marine aerosol. These factors contribute to the deterioration of building fronts, parapets, balconies, and accessory elements.
Aspects to Consider
Key concerns include rising damp, which causes both structural and aesthetic damage, and mold, which thrives in damp conditions and poses health risks. Damp walls also reduce insulation efficiency, leading to increased heating costs and interior damage.
Facade Protection
Effective protection involves creating barriers against environmental agents, waterproofing against atmospheric phenomena, providing UV protection, and sealing cracks. Products like SANOFER, FLEXOMIX 30, and FIBROMIX 40 are used for structural restoration and protection.
Masonry Restoration
Restoration involves creating a moisture barrier and using dehumidifying plasters to prevent plaster detachment and salt stains. Products such as TRIPLEZERO and CALIBRO NHL are used for anti-humidity and anti-condensation treatments.
Dehumidifying Plasters
These plasters are crucial for preventing damage from rising damp and maintaining the structural integrity of buildings. They allow moisture to evaporate, preventing salt crystallization and mold formation.
Certifications
The UNI EN 1504 standard outlines procedures for the repair and protection of reinforced concrete structures, ensuring their longevity. The UNI EN 998-1 standard defines classifications for construction products, including dehumidifying plasters.

Different structural and construction elements often coexist in the facades of houses and blocks of flats, such as reinforced concrete, plaster and exposed brick. Because of the 'enemies' to which they are exposed, safety can also be compromised, with the consequent risk of plaster detachment and danger of collapse. Moreover, the phenomenon of capillary rise often appears in the walls. Building materials are indeed porous, absorbing water that rises by capillarity and tries to evaporate from the surfaces of the walls, depositing salts. Rising damp is a serious problem: not only it causes aesthetic,...

Deteriorated fronts, parapets, balconies and accessory elements The restoration of fronts and parapets, often damaged by time and by the aggressive action of rainwater, prevents serious aesthetic and structural damages. Structural restoration of degraded reinforced concrete with exposed iron In case of repair of highly degraded reinforced concrete with exposed reinforcement bars, it is necessary to propose an effective and durable maintenance cycle for the definitive recovery of the structure. The restoration of reinforced concrete varies, depending on whether it is cortical (small reconstructions)...

Rising damp Covering a part of the wall, with rising damp, with stone or similar material further prevents the masonry from disposing of excess water and therefore increases the problem. At lower altitudes, salinity tends to increase due to humidity, as the lack of evaporation aggravates the problem both inside and outside. Damp wall The presence of water in the masonry causes a reduction in the insulating power of the materials with consequent excessive heating costs, use of dehumidifiers, continuous work of redoing plaster, painting, wooden floors and usually, ruined furniture and deteriorated...

Waterproofing cycle The ideal solution for facade protection must consider the following issues: 1. create an effective protection of the structures against the absorption of aggressive environmental agents; 2. waterproof structures against atmospheric phenomena, avoiding the stress caused by freezing/thawing cycles; 3. create an effective UV barrier; 4. seal existing and posthumous cracks (CBA), adapting to the deformations of the underlying support. The CP System meets all the set objectives thanks to its features: WATERPROOFING DESIGN facades and masonries

The heart of Calibro System is made from 100% recycled glass. The glass is ground, treated, granulated and expanded by means of a process from which a round granulate with a thin pore, of a milky colour, is created and contains many small air chambers with a variable diameter. According to the UNI EN 459-1: 2010 standard, products obtained by cooking natural marls or homogeneous mixtures of limestone and clayey materials are referred to as Natural Hydraulic Limes. Natural hydraulic limes are marked with the acronym NHL (Natural Hydraulic Limes). Among the natural hydraulic limes, there is a distinction...
