Plaster your way to a healthier home!

A simple solution to reducing mould, mildew and toxic air pollutants in your home!

Recent news stories have highlighted the potential impact of the growth of mould and mildew on the air quality in a home and, as a result, the occupant's health from the growth of mould and mildew. There are many different types of cleaning products for this issue, but unless the cause of the problem is tackled, the issue will return! The sustainable plaster producer Adaptavate has developed an easy-to-use plastering product that can help, called Breathaplasta.

Why is mould a problem?
Mould produce allergens, irritants and sometimes toxic substances. By inhaling or touching mould spores, occupants may experience an allergic reaction or asthma. In extreme cases, where vulnerable people are concerned (children, older adults and people with asthma and low immunity), contact with mycotoxins, toxic substances produced by mould's more severe health conditions can develop.

What causes the problem?
Daily activities such as cooking and showering create moisture. Excessive moisture in buildings creates condensation on your walls. The perfect environment for mould growth creates poor air quality and an unhealthy living environment!

How does Breathaplasta help?
Breathaplasta is a natural plant extract and lime-based plaster that absorbs excess moisture passively, regulating the humidity created by daily activities. Which helps inhibit mould growth and makes a healthy living or working place. The plaster acts as a set of lungs breathing in moisture at times of excess, releasing it only when the humidity levels have fallen. It is continuously regulating indoor humidity.

How easy a solution is it?
Breathaplasta is applied and used precisely the same way as standard plaster. No need to learn new skills!
