In order to prevent losses in energy, a huge progress has been made in the construction of new buildings when it comes to thermal insulation and impermeability. The degree of exchange between the room air and the exterior room is much lower in modern buildings, which keeps the warmth inside, while also keeping out harmful substances from the exterior.

A good choice of innovative building matters in the construction or reconstruction of a facility can contribute to solving this problem.

As much as 90% of each day is spent in indoor spaces, so the quality of interior air is of great importance for our health and quality of life.

In addition to the temperature, humidity and air flow, the climate of interior spaces is also affected by the construction materials.

For this reason, Baumit has developed the Klima system of products which regulate the climate of interior spaces and have a positive effect on your health.

The optimal humidity of interior air is crucial and should be 40-60%.

Staying in overly dry air dehydrates mucous membranes, which causes inflammation, colds, or nosebleeds. Overly humid air is not good either. When the air is no longer able to absorb the humidity (produced by airing laundry, showering, or cooking), it condenses on walls and creates an ideal environment for the development of mold, which increases the risk of asthma by 50% and allergies by 30%.

Baumit KlimaWhite is a mineral mortar which contains natural lime, which serves as a natural regulator of humidity. The effect increases thanks to its microporous structure. It quickly absorbs more humidity than conventional mortars for interior spaces, and when the humidity level drops, it evenly lets in exterior air.

Featuring no harmful matters and being resistant to mold – lime filler and lime binder are what makes Baumit KlimaWhite mortar (pH value at around 12) a natural disinfectant, which acts as protection against harmful microorganisms and mold. Lime mortars and antistatic, so there’s no accumulation of dirt particles on them.

The Klima system also includes Baumit KlimaFino natural white, powdery, lime plaster for interior surfaces with an effect of regulating the humidity, as well as Baumit KlimaColor steam-permeable silicate paint, without organic matters that can evaporate and without solvents and preservatives.

A new item in Baumit’s offer is the Ionit system of products, crated to contribute to the health and the wellbeing through an active increase of the number of ions in the interior air.

In the nature (for example, near waterfalls), the concentration of air ions is very high – the air is seen as especially fresh and clean, whereas in the urban environments, it is far lower. The results of the research carried out in two reference rooms have shown that, under similar conditions, the Ionit system nearly doubled the number of air ions and thereby improved the quality of air.


Baumit IonitColor paint for interior walls actively improves the quality of air by creating air ions, does not contain harmful matters and contributes substantially to the health and the wellbeing.

Ionit system also features thin-layer plasters: the IonitFinish paste and the IonitFino powder, as excellent regulators of the humidity. At only 1.5 mm of thickness, they can absorb around 20 g of water per square meter, thereby regulating the climate in rooms, keeping it within the ideal parameters.
