ECO-CONSOLIDATION
The eco-consolidating compound suitable for architectural and artistic assets
What are the alteration and degradation of stone surfaces, and how to defeat them?
NANOLAQ THE SOLUTION FOR YOU!
Completely Green, with no additives and no emission of toxic or environmentally polluting gases, dust or waste, thus respecting the health of operators.
NANOLAQ is a consolidating solution in the form of a suspension of calcium hydroxide nanoparticles dispersed in water, obtained according to an innovative and sustainable synthesis procedure. This can jeopardise the integrity of the original work or artefact. In such cases, it is necessary to intervene with consolidation techniques to restore the cohesion of the parts involved.
IBIX Conservation in collaboration with the University of L’Aquila’s Spin Off SNAPTECH S.r.l. is able to offer and use a highly innovative, high performance consolidating product:
NANOLAQ
NANOLAQ is a consolidating
solution in the form of a suspension of calcium hydroxide nanoparticles dispersed in water
It guarantees the perfectly compatible consolidation of all substrates with a carbonate matrix (such as natural stone materials, historical mortars, plasters, frescoes, wall paintings, stuccoes), both indoors and outdoors, respecting the environment and original materials.

A TURNKEY SOLUTION
IBIX Conservation provides Technological Solutions and manpower for architecture and construction in a “Turnkey” service perspective.
NANOLAQ: The main qualities.
- It restores the resistance of treated substrates up to a depth of 1-2 cm
- It can also be applied on damp substrates
- It does not alter the porosity of the treated substrate, maintaining the original transpirability
- It does not alter the chemical and mineralogical composition of carbonate substrates
- It does not produce VOCs
- It absorbs CO2 from the environment
