What is Building Protection?
What is Building Protection and Why is it Important?
Over time, buildings are damaged by environmental factors and chemical influences. Water, humidity, salinity, corrosion, acid rain, and biological growth (mold, moss, algae) shorten the lifespan of buildings. Building protection is a process that prevents these negative effects, increases the durability of buildings, and reduces maintenance costs.
Building protection is the chemical and physical process used to increase the resistance of buildings against external factors. These processes allow:
- Water and moisture are prevented from penetrating into the structure.
- Corrosion, cracks and deformations are prevented.
- Contamination of surfaces is delayed and cleaning is facilitated.
- The life of building materials is extended and restoration costs are reduced.
Benefits of Building Protection
Preventing Concrete Corrosion
Iron reinforcement in concrete corrodes due to water and chloride ions. Ecotera Bautera corrosion prevention products extend the life of the reinforcement by preventing water and harmful chemicals from entering the concrete.
Protection Against Efflorescence (Salting) and Water Damage
White spots (efflorescence) that form on building surfaces are caused by water and salt accumulation. Water-repellent building protection products prevent efflorescence and freeze-thaw damage by blocking water absorption.
Resistance to Acid Rain and Chemical Effects
In industrial areas, acid rain erodes building surfaces. Ecotera Bautera protective coatings protect the structure for long periods by making the surface acid-resistant.
Protection Against Graffiti and Contamination
Graffiti and dirt accumulation are a major problem, especially in public buildings. Graffiti-proof coatings make surfaces easy to clean and prevent permanent paint stains.
Stone Consolidation (Natural Stone Strengthening)
Over time, natural stones weaken and begin to flake. Stone consolidation products prevent deterioration by strengthening the stone's internal structure.
On Which Surfaces Are Building Protection Products Used?
- Reinforced concrete structures, buildings and steel constructions
- Structures and surfaces made of bricks, tiles and terracotta materials
- Natural stone surfaces (marble, granite, sandstone, limestone, etc.)
- Plastered and painted surfaces
Reduce Your Maintenance Costs with Building Protection Products
Building protection not only increases the durability of structures, but also:
- Reduces repair costs in the long run.
- Increases energy efficiency with its insulation effect.
- Protects the aesthetic appearance.
Ecotera provides special protection solutions for your buildings, enabling you to build long-lasting and durable structures.
