Matt appearance
Compared to conventional washable interior paints
Healthy ambient interior climate
The washable wall paint is free from plasticisers and isocyanates
Resistant to disinfectants and dirt
Thanks to special surface properties
Non-combustible
Provides additional safety and enables application in all environments
High whiteness
Ensures bright and friendly rooms with pleasant light reflection
Even flow properties
The smooth consistency allows the paint to be applied easily and evenly
Quality, climate protection and resource conservation are the basis for our AimS product line.
We are setting new standards in ecological and economic criteria and achieving excellent processing properties.
Approx. 30% of the binder in AimS plasters and paints is made from renewable raw materials. Pine oil is used instead of crude oil.
For a detached house with a facade area of approx. 200 m², the use of StoArmat Classic AimS / Stolit AimS / StoColor Lotusan AimS saves approx. 40 litres of crude oil.
Conclusion:The more buildings that are coated with AimS products, the better it is for climate protection.
