Ultimately, healthy living is a field in which you can say we are looking at, as the name says, the interior. When it comes to healthy materials, it is of course not only the interior that plays a role, but also the façade.

I define healthy not only in terms of us as users, occupants of the rooms, but also in terms of the environment. Direct, indirect aspects, when you now move from the interior to the façade accordingly, are a not insignificant issue with a wide variety of façade materials.

They have a façade and it is coated, painted, and many of these coatings and paints were coated with biocides for years, meaning that these same coatings and paints remain free of algae for as long as possible, for example. However, these biocides are washed out over the years, enter our water cycle via washing out and are now detectable in our water, in our groundwater, in some of which are clearly measurable.

Accordingly, when looking at healthy materials, it is important not only to see the health of living, but also to healthy facades, because through the cycle in which we ultimately find ourselves on our round planet, the material also comes from the façade via the detour of water, drinking water, the food chain and finally back into the interior to the diet, which could therefore certainly no longer be as healthy as it could be.
