Their architecture shapes our cities and refers to history. For this reason, it is important to preserve them for our posterity and to maintain them in a professional manner. Paint is a very important tool when renovating historic facades, because the colourfulness of a historical building is obvious at first glance. TENSION FIELD It is not uncommon for monument preservation measures to be caught between the original reconstruction of historical building fabric and today‘s building requirements as well as what is technically feasible. In this context, the materials used are of particular importance, as they must meet the highest quality standards in terms of protection and aesthetics. QUALITY STANDARDS KEIM Purkristalat, developed in 1878 by A. W. Keim, the founder of silicate technology, sets the standard when it comes to longevity and colour brilliance. Primarily used for the protection of historic buildings, KEIM Purkristalat is the preferred choice of monument conservators and restorers. THE ORIGINAL KEIM Purkristalat owes its unique quality to the perfect coordination of high-quality, exclusively mineral ingredients: inorganic, lightfast pigments, selected minerals as fillers and pure, liquid potassium silicate as binding agent. The „original silicate paint“ owes its legendary reputation to numerous projects worldwide that have impressively proven what makes KEIM Purkristalat so unique: Luminous, long-lasting facades with an outstanding colour strength that age gracefully.
