Cleaning
In order to successfully protect heavily contaminated buildings in the long term, in addition to preventing the ingress of moisture, measures must also be taken to combat or reduce the salts that are harmful to the building. The application of desalination compresses has proven itself as a physical desalination method.
Desalination’ refers to the significant reduction of the content of building-damaging salts in porous building materials. In addition to the application of sacrificial plasters, compress plasters or restoration plasters, the application of desalination compresses is a method that has been used for many years in the preservation of historical monuments and is tried and proven with appropriate experience.

Gentle cleaning
Due to its large inner surface, a dirt layer is an excellent absorber of moisture and gaseous and particulate pollutants. These usually react underneath the crust and accelerate the destruction, even if this initially remains invisible under the crust. There are therefore the following technical and aesthetic reasons for cleaning.
- Elimination of risk factors such as salt accumulation and delaying the drying speed
- Preparation of the substrate for further conservation measures by restoring capillary absorbency
- Removal of visually disturbing soiling

Cleaning compress Clean Galena
In recent years, awareness of the emissions that can arise during façade cleaning has grown considerably, and rightly so. Particular attention must be paid to the question of whether heavy metals can be released into the environment in any form during cleaning. As a paste-like cleaner, Clean Galena removes urban soiling such as tar, rust, plaster, grease and metals from valuable natural stone substrates in particular, without releasing the soiling as is common practice with conventional cleaning methods such as sandblasting. Clean Galena binds and complexes impurities and pollutants in the compress itself, resulting in a complete absence of emissions and, in addition, controlled disposal of residues.
