Lime is a natural binder obtained by the calcination of limestone, a process that transforms calcium carbonate into calcium oxide, commonly known as quicklime. When mixed with water, quicklime reacts to form hydrated lime or slaked lime, which is used to create mortars and plasters. For millennia, lime has been an essential component in construction, valued for its outstanding properties of adhesion, strength, and breathability.
In the restoration of historic buildings, lime is particularly valuable because it is compatible with traditional materials, such as stones and bricks, and helps preserve the authenticity and integrity of original structures. Its ability to promote breathability reduces the risks of moisture and condensation, helping to maintain optimal conditions for buildings over time.
In addition to its use in restoration, lime is also highly valued for new construction. Due to its characteristics, such as resistance and durability, it is ideal for creating mortars and plasters that enhance the healthiness of indoor environments and improve the overall quality of buildings.
