Authentic Italian Slaked Lime Paints
Romabio Lime paint is an authentic slaked-lime paint from Northern Italy made with the same Dolomite lime that the Romans have been using for centuries. Launched in 2009 after years of careful research and collaboration with biologists, chemists, and Italian paint professionals who still use 2,000-year-old techniques, Romabio makes elegantly luminous products that are also nontoxic, sustainable, and ecologically friendly.
Advantages & Benefits
Breathability
The micro-crystalline structure allows air and moisture vapor to permeate through the surface into the substrate, providing a healthy exchange of air.
Durability
Because of the micro-crystalline bond, they create a more durable coating. Durable coatings mean less frequent applications of paint, saving material and labor costs, as well as reducing carbon footprint.
Fire-Resistance
Inherently non-combustible, flame resistant, as well as non toxic with reaction to fire. Potassium silicate has been widely
used for centuries as a fire retardant for wood products.
Sustainability
Because of the micro-crystalline bond, they create a more Potassium silicate is the primary binder, an abundant, natural, raw material. Acrylic paints are derived from a chemical process of petrol refinement.
Naturally Mold Resistant
Naturally resistant to mold and fungal growth due to their high alkalinity and breathability
