What do we mean when we say our lime-based paints absorb CO₂?

Not all paints absorb CO₂. This natural property is specifically linked to lime-based formulations during the carbonation process.

As the coating cures, the lime reacts naturally with CO₂ present in the atmosphere, transforming it into calcium carbonate, part of the traditional lime cycle.

This reaction happens mainly during the 30 days after application and contributes to reducing part of the environmental impact associated with construction materials.

In larger architectural projects, where wider surface areas are involved, this contribution becomes increasingly meaningful. Especially considering that not all paints absorb CO₂, choosing lime-based mineral coatings is a more conscious and coherent material choice.

Lime-based paints are not a complete climate solution, but they represent a more responsible mineral technology within the built environment.

Today, we celebrate Earth Day through THE EARTH COLLECTION.

This range of decorative coatings combines material authenticity, design and durability, meeting high standards of sustainability. Crafted with lime and Graphenstone technology, these finishes are highly breathable and contribute to long-lasting surfaces.

Inspired by this, The Colours of the Earth brings together a palette of pigments and finishes rooted in nature, where tradition meets contemporary design.

We are always open to expanding our network of distributors worldwide. If you are interested, we would be pleased to hear from you.
