The restoration of the limestones on the fa\u00e7ade of the Royal Palace of Caserta included consolidation and protection operations<\/strong>. An inorganic formulation, specifically for limestone matrix stones<\/strong>, was used for the consolidation.

Over the years, many consolidation works have been carried out on the wall faces and degraded materials inside the excavations using our ethyl silicate-based formulations<\/strong>; it has also been possible to work on the plasters still present that were poor in binder and poorly resistant to external alterations. Thanks to their balanced concentration, Cir’s products made it possible to carry out consolidation work without altering the surfaces and porosymmetric structure of the materials<\/strong>, limiting the present degradation process, while leaving their original characteristics unaltered. <\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-1-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color=”#dff1fb” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”Ca' Vendramin Calergi, Venezia” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:1.6em|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1749826525203{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1749825113390{margin-bottom: 0.5em !important;}” text_direction=”default”]\n

The limestone portals were in a particularly advanced state of decay<\/strong>, requiring conservative consolidation and protection work. For this type of intervention, high-performance products were used<\/strong>, developed with latest-generation nanotechnology<\/strong>: nano-dispersion of colloidal silica silanised in an aqueous solution<\/strong>, particularly suitable for the consolidating treatment of crumbling and decayed mineral surfaces. The products used made it possible to block the advancement of degradation<\/strong>, while maintaining the physical and chemical characteristics of the treated materials unchanged, giving the portal a new lease of life. <\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-1-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color=”#dff1fb” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”Pieve di Romena, Arezzo” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:1.6em|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1749826965712{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1749826975500{margin-bottom: 0.5em !important;}” text_direction=”default”]\n

The sandstone blocks<\/strong> on the fa\u00e7ade were considerably compromised and degraded, as physical changes over time had led to detachments with conspicuous loss of material<\/strong>. The fundamental intervention was carried out with an ethyl silicate-based consolidating agent<\/strong>, which restored the materials’ lost compactness and mechanical strength. The subsequent protection, necessary to limit the penetration of water into the material and thus also the alterations caused by it, was carried out with a polysiloxane protective agent in an inert solvent mixture<\/strong>. <\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-1-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”Salimbeni Palace, Siena” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:1.6em|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1749827026816{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1749827053309{margin-bottom: 0.5em !important;}” text_direction=”default”]\n

The intervention on the facade’s stone cladding included a preliminary phase of selective and controlled cleaning<\/strong>, through the use of pH-neutral detergents<\/strong>, formulated on the basis of the Central Institute for Restoration’s AB 57 directive. The materials were subsequently protected with a high-performance fluorinated product<\/strong> based on special fluoropolymers diluted in an inert solvent mixture.

The prestigious brick fa\u00e7ade<\/strong>, embellished with limestone elements, was in a first phase cleaned of the stratified pollutants, with pH-balanced detergents<\/strong>, used appropriately diluted on the basis of the preliminary sampling carried out, and with a specific product for sanitising surfaces polluted by biological patinas<\/strong>.

The cleaning operations carried out on the fa\u00e7ade involved the use of detergents with different pH values, as several types of material and various layers of smog and pollutants were treated<\/strong>. A specific detergent was used to remove smog incrustations on the Vicenza stone surfaces<\/strong>, while another was applied, mixed with cellulose pulp, using the poultice technique on the areas with the greatest stratification<\/strong>. An additional cleaning product was used for the remaining parts of the fa\u00e7ade. In this way it was possible to intervene in full respect of the materials, without altering them chromatically and superficially<\/strong>, maintaining in the stone supports their natural patina of ageing. <\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-1-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”San Giovanni e Paolo, Venezia” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:1.6em|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1749827509778{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1749827524097{margin-bottom: 0.5em !important;}” text_direction=”default”]\n

Bricks are made by firing clays with varying amounts of sand, iron oxide and calcium carbonate. Although solid, building bricks have a porosity that makes them vulnerable to atmospheric agents, smog and the wear and tear of time<\/strong>. The composition of the clay used for the mixture determines the colour. CIR’s products for the restoration, conservation and protection of fa\u00e7ades have restored the original colour of bricks thanks to concentrated acid detergents suitable for removing salt efflorescence<\/strong>; water-based consolidating and protective agents, also lithium silicate-based<\/strong>, have made it possible to consolidate while respecting the building material. <\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/6″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”4546″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” img_link=”https:\/\/www.circhimica.it\/download\/Book_CIR.pdf”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”5\/6″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1749829989920{margin-left: 1em !important;}” text_direction=”default”]\n
