The Difference Between KEIM Paints vs Conventional Paints - Part 5

🌱 Environmental Impact

KEIM Paints: KEIM Paints is mineral-based and made primarily from natural raw materials such as liquid potassium silicate and inorganic pigments.

Our production process has a low carbon footprint and avoids the use of harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Due to it’s high durability, KEIM Paints extend the maintenance cycle of buildings, which reduces waste and long-term environmental impact.

Including non-toxic, breathable and resistant to mold growth, contributing to healthier indoor air quality and environmentally responsible construction practices.

VS.

Conventional Paints: Traditional paints are often formulated with petrochemical-derived binders, synthetic additives and higher levels of VOCs.

These compounds contribute to air pollution and can pose health risks during and after application.

Additionally, conventional paints typically require more frequent recoating due to lower durability, resulting in higher resource consumption and increased environmental waste over time.

…

▼ In Summary of our Episodes

Conventional paints compromise health and building longevity, running up higher cost in maintenance.

KEIM Paints are the superior choice for long-lasting, safe and sustainable wall finishes, reducing maintenance to an absolute limit.
It’s breathability, colour durability and fire resistance makes it superior for protecting both buildings and occupants.

The Difference Between KEIM Paints and Conventional Paints - Part 4

🩺 Health Impact

When it comes to indoor and outdoor paints, the health impact on occupants and the environment is a critical consideration.
KEIM paints and conventional paints differ significantly in their composition and how they affect indoor air quality, human health and long-term safety.

▼ Composition & Emissions

KEIM Paints: Made from natural mineral ingredients, KEIM paints are free from harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs), solvents and synthetic additives. It’s breathable, inorganic nature allows moisture to pass through walls.

VS.

Conventional Paints: Contains high levels of VOCs, synthetic resins and plasticizers. These chemicals off-gases for weeks and even months, releasing harmful fumes into the air.

▼ Indoor Air Quality

KEIM Paints: Improve indoor air quality by not contributing to chemical emissions. It’s mineral base naturally resists mold and bacterial growth, promoting a healthier living environment.

VS.

Conventional Paints: Can degrade indoor air quality, especially during application and drying.
Prolonged exposure to VOCs may cause headaches, respiratory irritation and allergic reactions.

▼ Long-Term Health Effects

KEIM Paints: Non-toxic and odorless, reducing the risk of chronic exposure to harmful chemicals.
Its durability also means fewer repaints, reducing cumulative exposure over time.

VS.

Conventional Paints: Repeated exposure to the chemicals in conventional paints contribute to long-term health issues, particularly for sensitive individuals like children, the elderly or those with asthma.

The Difference Between KEIM Paints and Conventional Paints - Part 3

🔥 Fire Resistance

KEIM Paints: Naturally incombustible meaning it does not support flames or emit harmful gases. Providing superior fire resistance and meeting stringent safety standards.
Due to it’s inorganic composition, KEIM Paints has been used for safety-critical areas like underground stations, airports, schools, hospitals, hotels and high-rise buildings.

VS.

Conventional Paints: Contain synthetic resins that can release smoke and toxic fumes when exposed to heat, increasing fire hazards.
They may also easily ignite, melt and drip under extreme heat which can result in fire spreading throughout the whole building.
