Coating against green algae – multifunctional solution against pollution

Coatings against green algae are a must for rough, untreated surfaces of wooden, concrete, and other stony outdoor objects. Green algae is not only undesirable from an aesthetic standpoint but can also shorten the lifespan of these objects and create slipperiness. In short, there are plenty of reasons to take this issue seriously. By applying our professional concrete and/or wood coatings, you address this problem before it can even arise.

Coating prevents the adhesion of green algae

The special composition of our coatings makes them extremely weather-resistant and prevents green algae from adhering to the surface. (Our renowned anti-graffiti coatings operate on the same principle, making stony or metallic surfaces much easier to clean in cases of vandalism.)

Preventing green algae also prevents…

• … aesthetic discomfort. The eye also desires beauty. We don’t need to explain to you that green algae looks unsightly on outdoor terraces, facades, and public works such as bus shelters and bridge decks. Pollution of this nature directly impacts the social living environment: studies show that clean environments stay cleaner longer and also discourage littering;
• … unnecessary cleaning actions and costs. It takes a lot of time, resources, and manpower to remove established green algae from metal and stony surfaces. Depending on the surface area, this can easily become a day’s work. Usually, only high-pressure cleaning is sufficient, a process that can damage the surface;
• … other hazardous situations. Under certain weather conditions, green algae can become extremely slippery, leading to slips and falls. With a coating, you prevent the formation of green algae and reduce the risk of it occurring. (In combination with an anti-slip coating, you minimize this safety risk even further.)
