Extremely Longlife
KEIM mineral silicate paint systems were invented over 140 years ago to provide long term protective and decorative finishes for mineral substrates subject to harsh climatic conditions. There are many examples throughout Europe of buildings that were decorated over 100 years ago with KEIM mineral paint systems that are still in good condition today.
KEIM Mineral Paint is Different
KEIM has been widely used and specified extensively throughout the UK over the past 30 years for both external and internal projects. KEIM paint comprises of a potassium silicate binder with inorganic mineral fillers and natural earth-oxide colour pigments. The paint penetrates into the mineral substrate to form a chemical crystalline bond, becoming an integral part of the surface. This ensures an extremely longlife protective paint system.
Keim - Beyond Paint:
The product and service range has long since extended beyond pure paint products: our product portfolio is rounded off by mineral plasters and fillers, products for concrete restoration and concrete cosmetics, for indoors and outdoors, and natural stone systems. The concept of sustainability shapes the spirit of the company. In 1993, KEIM launches the world’s first healthy interior paint and later receives the world’s first natureplus certifications for interior and facade paints. The outstanding ecological profile of our products is evident, from resource-saving production and use of natural raw materials, through the product composition with no addition of solvents, preservatives and plasticisers, to the extremely long service life of KEIM paints. Over 60 products have received the Cradle to Cradle Certified® certification in silver and have also been awarded the Material Health Certificate at the Gold level.

KEIM Unveils the Hassle-Free Solution to Contemporary Limewash Aesthetic

Effortless & Eco-Friendly Colourwash: KEIM Unveils the Hassle-Free Solution to Contemporary Limewash Aesthetics
World leaders in sustainable paint solutions, KEIM proudly introduces Colourwash - a breakthrough innovation redefining the limewash aesthetic for contemporary interior design.
For over 140 years, KEIM has been at the forefront of mineral paint innovation, guided by a commitment to natural ingredients that promote both user well-being and environmental sustainability.
Today, KEIM UK sets a new standard with Colourwash - a pre-mixed interior paint formulated to capture the timeless appeal of traditional limewash while delivering skin-safe, and eco-conscious results.
Vanessa Fox, Commercial Manager at KEIM, commented, "The resurgence of limewash is evident in today's dynamic design landscape. However, the use of traditional limewash presents potential skin and eye irritation, porous surfaces which are difficult to clean, and overall unpredictable application outcomes. In response, we've designed Colourwash as a revolutionary, non-caustic alternative that not only creates the coveted limewash aesthetic but also offers a durable finish suitable for bare, painted, or previously limewashed walls and ceilings."
In addition to the existing curated palette, Colourwash welcomes three new hues - TUSK, BALM and TALC- expanding the range of neutral tones crafted for timeless appeal. These shades provide interior designers and homeowners alike with the perfect canvas for creating truly organic interiors, all achievable in as little as a single coat.
Vanessa elaborated on the unique formulation of Colourwash, stating, "Our innovative blend combines non-flammable ingredients, UV-stable natural pigments and a potassium silicate binder for a chalk-free, long-lasting finish that outperforms conventional lime-based paints and washes.”
KEIM's commitment to well-being is evident in the ultra-low volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present across their entire mineral paint range, ensuring enhanced indoor air quality, immediate occupiable spaces and a safe environment for people and pets alike.
Colourwash can be purchased online or ordered through most decorators' merchants.
