Damp walls and salt efflorescence

The system designed for interior walls with mold and condensation problems.

Description

Rising damp is one of the main causes of deterioration in walls, both internal and external. Water coming from the ground flows through the capillaries of the building materials, carrying mineral salts (nitrates, sulphates, chlorides) which, crystallising, cause:

  • detachment and flaking of the plaster
  • persistent stains and halos
  • white efflorescences
  • loss of cohesion of the masonry

This process not only compromises the aesthetic appearance, but also reduces the healthiness of the environment, promoting mold and bad odors, reducing living comfort.

Use

Thanks to ISOBELL’s high breathability, the internal relative humidity is reduced while the wall’s surface temperature increases. The dew point shifts inward or can even be eliminated, preventing surface condensation. Water vapor is able to migrate through the membrane and gradually disperse without accumulating.
The wall breathes, remains dry and warm, and effectively improves living comfort and the overall quality of the indoor environment.

Immediate benefits:

  • Levels out thermal bridges and protects against mold.
  • Stabilizes the wall’s internal microclimate.
  • It reduces heat loss and saves energy.

Ideal for the renovation and recovery of existing buildings, both internally and externally, even in historic contexts where it is not possible to completely remove the plaster.

Advantages

  • It reduces heat loss and saves energy.
  • Excellent breathability for improved indoor comfort.
  • It protects the plaster and prolongs the life of the masonry.
  • Levels out thermal bridges and protects against mold.
  • Quick installation without demolition.
  • Long-lasting and sustainable solution for indoors and outdoors.
