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.

A Greener Future in Every Coat: The Sustainable, Recyclable, Reuseable Clay Lime Plaster
The latest product development from eco-friendly, mineral masters at KEIM. Introducing KEIM Janus – their first clay-lime plaster … with extra eco benefits!
Unlike traditional lime, lime-cement, or gypsum plasters, KEIM Janus uses around 40% less energy to manufacture, and what’s more, it’s recyclable at the end of its life!
KEIM Janus, so named after the Roman god with two faces to depict the ability to look both back to the past, and forward to the future is the newest product innovation that combines all the key benefits associated with KEIM within an interior plaster.
What benefits does KEIM Janus have compared to traditional lime or gypsum plasters?
KEIM Mineral Paints are known for their eco-friendly virtually VOC-free paints, coatings, finishes and renders. They are the product of choice for many architects, designers, and homeowners as their products are kind to use, and kind to the environment. Missing from their portfolio, which also includes colourwashes and one coat systems, was a sustainable interior plaster, until now!
Vanessa Fox, Commercial Manager, KEIM UK helps to explain, ‘This was the natural evolution in our product development but a major step forward for sustainable construction. Engineered with both performance and the planet in mind, KEIM Janus requires 40% less energy to manufacture, dramatically reducing carbon footprint which is a key factor to support the circular building practices and helps architects, builders, and designers to meet the growing demands for sustainable materials.’
What are the key benefits to architects, decorators, or contractors?
The most significant benefit of KEIM Janus is the reduced CO₂ required during manufacture compared to traditional lime plasters and its ability to remove and reuse. But equally, the many benefits that their clay-lime based product offers include;
- 99% mineral ingredients
- More durable and longer lasting than traditional plasters
- No added solvents, preservatives, and plasticisers; healthier indoor air quality
- Class CS I DIN EN 998-1 compared to clay plasters
- Mould resistant
- Air purification due to the high clay content
- Reusable at the end of life / fully recyclable
- Two grain sizes – 0.5mm and 1.2mm
Vanessa Fox concludes, ‘KEIM Janus is fully recyclable alternative to traditional lime plaster, and beautiful to use. Several lime plaster specialists have trialled KEIM Janus with us and all commented that it is so easy to apply, so a win, win, win for the customer, decorator, and the planet!’
