Did you know that indoor air can be up to 5 times more polluted than outdoor air? Paints, glues, varnishes, industrial furniture... continuously release health-damaging volatile organic compounds (VOCs ). Faced with this reality, more and more households are looking for healthy, environmentally-friendly alternatives for their walls.
Among them, Absolin natural decorative plaster stands out as an innovative and responsible solution. In addition to its aesthetic qualities, this coating purifies indoor air, regulates humidity and protects occupants' health. In this article, we explain why Absolin is so much more than just a decorative coating: it's a real contributor to well-being.
The invisible dangers of indoor air
The air we breathe inside our homes often contains pollutants emitted by :
- Conventional paints (formaldehydes, solvents, styrenics);
- Chipboard furniture (glues, resins) ;
- Cleaning products ;
- Synthetic materials (carpets, wall coverings).
These substances can cause :
- Allergies, headaches, respiratory tract irritation ;
- Asthma or chronic pathologies in the most sensitive populations (children, the elderly);
- Gradual deterioration in quality of life.
Indoor air quality is therefore a major issue, at the heart of current environmental health concerns.
A decorative coating that acts on the ambient air
Unlike conventional paints, which emit VOCs, Absolin captures and neutralizes them. Thanks to its formulation based on flax fibres, lime and marble powder, it offers several proven advantages:
- Absorption of VOCs, especially formaldehyde;
- Natural moisture regulation (prevents mold and mildew) ;
- Antibacterial and antifungal action due to lime;
- Zero harmful emissions during application and drying.
How does it work?
1. Lime: a natural purifier
Known since ancient times, air lime has the ability to capture impurities from the air and neutralize pathogens. Its basic pH prevents the development of micro-organisms.
2. Flax fibers: a breathable structure
Flax, grown in France and biodegradable, gives the coating a porous structure that lets walls "breathe". It captures excess moisture and gradually releases it, stabilizing the indoor atmosphere.
3. Marble powder: mineral barrier
Fine and inert, it creates a natural barrier without blocking gas exchange. It also gives the coating longevity without releasing chemical substances.
Health benefits for occupants
Using Absolin in a room means :
- Reducing exposure to indoor pollutants;
- Reduce the risk of allergies or irritations;
- Provide a safe environment for children, the elderly and pets;
- Create a natural, soothing atmosphere conducive to rest and concentration.
These benefits are particularly visible in :
- Children's rooms;
- Rooms with no direct opening ;
- Poorly ventilated older homes.
Absolin and the A+ standard
Absolin complies with the strictest European air quality standards:
- Zero VOC emissions;
- Entirely biosourced and biodegradable composition;
- Made in France, without solvents or toxic additives.
It is therefore safe to use immediately after application, even in occupied areas.
