Putz and colors with added value

Nice is not enough for the environment! Plasters and paints can be more today.

Plasters and paints are the new generation of versatile talents who not only actively combat pollutants, but also good at the same time.

Environment-friendly products for the design of walls has always adhered to the call, really boring and only sandals makers seriously as a design means considered to be. Meanwhile, the plaster and paint industry, which has been trying for some time, a new clientele and to gain from their dusty image to solve, researched, investigated and found that one in centuries and sometimes years of materials should be focused. With the help of hi-tech procedures one has the traditional glue, Recycled Paint and colors back on the market which not only pleased with nearly every popular style of living fit, but also do something else.

Lehmputz

Lehmputz for example, can be due to its surface structure very much moisture. This is not just in bathrooms advantage (which is why there is the usual full-sealing of the walls with tiles in principle should be regarded critically, since ceramic is unable, moist air to save it and therefore there very quickly to prevent mold formation) but also in other spaces that are poorly ventilated - and this is due to the tightness most modern windows. Another problem that inadequate ventilation is possible, is that contaminants in furniture, textiles, or cleaning agents at concentrations in the atmosphere, the health and wellbeing affect. Composters is in a position to dismantle these substances and thus proves itself as a multi-talent.

Wall Paint

Again, a lot has changed. Was it earlier happy when a material is free from harmful ingredients was still not enough anymore. The so-called "color photo" you can also remove odors and microorganisms. Under test conditions was such a dangerous substance such as formaldehyde within a few hours completely dismantled. It succeeds where the pollutants in neutral substances are split. You need only these colors, artificial or natural light. Nothing easier than that!

Moisture, these colors of course, and therefore perfectly suited for bathrooms. As an alternative to the usual tiled walls, they are not only priced but also design considerations necessarily recommended.

Lime

Knauf, one of the largest manufacturers of cleaning services of all kinds, provides, there is a new lime ago, a lot of moisture from the air absorb, store and can quickly re-emit. As a true multi - tasking - product, he was also minerals added to their ability, during the drying process, countless tiny cavities to create makes it possible pollutants from furniture, textiles and the ambient air and to filter it. An anti-mold equipment makes the so-called "Rotputz" ideal for wall surfaces in wet areas Rain Barrels.

The plaster and wall colors of the new generation are so versatile talents. What they save their valuable skills so interesting is that it not only to a healthy indoor climate contribute actively, but also look great. Whether feingespachtelt or roughly structured - they adapt to any design direction, restrained and elegant, as they now come.
The new climate package of the federal government is adopted

House owners who renovate their house or energy with renewable heat equip beckons millions heavy subsidy program.

"The Federal Government has the most comprehensive climate change package in the history of the country decided," was the message of the Federal Environment Minister Sigmar Gabriel. By 2020 Germany wants to cut carbon dioxide (C02) to 40 percent below 1990 levels have decreased.

In early December 2007, the first 14 legislative proposals and regulations of the Cabinet last summer adopted 29 measures to combat climate change was launched. It is in essence to the promotion of renewable energies such as solar, wind, hydro and biomass. Moreover, the efficiency in the production and use of electricity and heat should be improved. Especially in the building sector is a huge potential energy savings.

Basic rehabilitation of old buildings

The average Energy Saving Appliances consumption in the entire building is now converted to an annual 20 liters of heating oil per square meter. For new buildings, the energy savings (EnEV) has a value of ten liters before. From 2009, the energy once again tightened by 30 percent and energy consumption to seven liters be lowered. In the case of the basic renovation of older buildings requires the legislature to the consumption of 14 liters should be limited. Also for old buildings are now the requirements by 30 percent and tightened so that the Energy Efficiency consumption to about ten liters per square meter reduced. Another 30 percent are planned for 2012. Moreover, the proportion of renewable energy by 2020 from now 6 to 14 percent increase.

Increase in funding

Wanted the federal government originally homeowner also in the renovation Ökowärme law to undertake, she is now on a voluntary and increases the funding for the installation for example of pellet heating systems and Solar Panels systems: from 130 million euros in 2005 to up to 350 million in 2008 and up to 500 million euros in 2009. Overall, the federal government for the energy efficient building renovation (insulation, window replacement, etc.) 1.4 billion per year.

Interest Cheap Credit

This money will be distributed through low-interest loans under various programs of the federal and state-owned KfW bank. The amount of interest depends on the extent of the measures and the duration of the loan. Who, for example, to renew his old heating, you can credit the program "to modernize housing - Eco Plus" benefit. Funding is available for heat pumps, Solar Attic Fans, biogas and biomass plants and wood gasifier, but also the replacement of old coal, oil and Gaseinzelöfen and by night storage heaters with central heating boiler technology and insulation measures. If a building lavishly modernized, so that the existing buildings for energy-saving requirements, can be obtained from the CO2 Building Rehabilitation "of the KfW still receive low-interest loans.

Satte grants

In addition, grant funding for some institutions in certain cases Bundeslaender additional loans. In Baden-Württemberg, for instance, where, 1 April 2008 to a minimum share of 20 percent of the heat demand in new buildings from renewable energy sources must be geschöpft, the L-state-owned bank for the program "Living with the future - renewable sources of Solar Lighting energy" in the interest rates of the KfW loan will be cheaper again. Alternatively, energy-conscious instead of subsidized loans and grants. For example, decreasing the energy consumption of the building by upgrading to the level of energy savings, according to current guidelines newly constructed property, KfW will pay up to 5000 euros in cash. Lower the energy consumption according to the remediation building values by at least 30 percent, the subsidy of up to 8750 euros.
