Since 1987 we have been manufacturing eco-

logically consistent, fully declared paints and
materials for the surface design of walls and
facades such as paints, plasters and wood coat-
ings from natural and renewable raw materials.

Our products are based on traditional recipes that

have been tried and tested for centuries and are
sensible in terms of building physics. The results
are products that maintain and positively influ-
ence the natural properties of a substrate such as
room climate control.

All our products are free of preservatives, syn-

thetic solvents, plastic binders and plasticizers.

In addition, we do not use water in most of our

paints and plasters. This not only saves us trans-
port costs, but also significantly reduces our
ecological footprint, saves plastic packaging and
does not require any preservatives.

We think things through consistently.

Unconventional & Consistent

 06 | 07

Casein paints are coatings for walls and ceilings which contain pure natural milk pro-
tein (Casein) as a binding agent. Even since the times of ancient Egypt paints made of
milk and pigments were produced and used. Similar paints have been mentioned in old
Hebrew documents. Mural paintings in the Sistine Chapel (Secco technique) have been
made durable using similar traditional paint.

Later on curd cheese has been used instead of milk, it contains three times more
casein (about 12 %). Due to the usage of milk and curd cheese these colours always
had to be applied when they were still fresh. They could only be kept a few hours to a
few days. Modern casein paints are produced in powder form and contain dried casein.
This extends the shelf life to a couple of years. Preservatives became unnecessary,
thus reducing transport weight, packaging waste and keeping transportation costs to
a minimum.

A recent trend is the usage of casein, based on vegetable protein binder. Vegeta-
ble casein derives from protein producing plants like peas, lupines, beans or other
leguminous plants. Milk casein is obtained by treating fresh milk with acid or rennet
flocculating the protein, so that it can be filtered, dried and pulverised. The protein
actually keeps its food quality. Casein alone cannot be used as a binder, it lacks suf-
ficient adhesive force. It will not change into an adhesive before alkalis have been
added, which break the protein down. Suitable agents are potash, soda, bicarbonate
(baking powder), salts of hartshorn, borax or lime hydrate.

In contrast to most other colour binders the appearance of pigments and filling materials
are not altered by casein; hence pigments will shine in their unique typical brilliance.
Ecologically, Casein paint is absolutely harmless throughout the whole product cycle
(production, use and disposal). Paint residue can even be composted.

It all started
with this paint...
The original idea was a demonstration to illustrate how his-
torical emission free colour mixes could be an alternative
to environmentally damaging conventional paints (Organic
market in Hildesheim, around 1985). It rapidly became a
real sales hit, which lead to the founding of our company
Kreidezeit. Over many years the simple and yet technically
astonishing high quality wall paint gained many fans and still
finds new ones.

Make your own casein based paint. Mix the binder from curd
cheese and soda and finally put chalk powder in. Experience
the enormous opacity and applicability of this simple paint.
For the German WDR, a German TV Broadcasting station, the
didactic content was worth broadcasting three individual pro-
grammes about this principle in the popular educational TV
programme “Sendung mit der Maus”.

Suitable for almost all interior building materials: all kinds of

plaster, paper based wallpapers, stone, dry walls.

Product Characteristics
 powder, mix with water
 highly diffusible
 natural chalk-white colour
 can be painted over several times
 can be tinted with all earth and mineral pigments

Casein Primer
Casein Primer has a firming effect and lowers absorbency. It is an important and low-
cost component of every paint and plaster job, suitable for all absorbent plasters,
plaster boards and mineral based old coatings.
Since it contains the same type of binder, it is the ideal primer for casein based paint
and plaster. The subsequent layers of lime plaster and paint will connect safely and
firmly through chemical reaction.

Vega Primer
Colourless transparent and well penetrating primer for subsequent coats and plaster
applications with KREIDEZEIT casein paints, lime paints and plasters. Does not limit
the steam absorption of plasters (sD value < 0.01 m), so Vega Primer is ideally suited
especially for clay and lime plasters. Vegan and low-odour alternative to our casein
primer, contains plant protein.

Product Characteristics
 powder, mix with water
 transparent

Wall Filler
KREIDEZEIT Wall Filler is a lime-bound filling and smoothing putty for interior use. For
thin-layer repairs and full-surface smoothing of rough or uneven surfaces. Thin layers
can be sanded after 3 hours. For application thicknesses from 0-4 mm. It does not
harden when stirred and can be further processed over many months.

These excellently covering and cost-effective paints are suitable for almost
all interior wall building materials. Italian marble powder gives these
colours their unobtrusively, harmonic bright white colour, without any
titanium white. The difference between Vega Wall Paint and Casein Marble
Paint is only the binder; the technical characteristics are the same.

Product Characteristics
 Powder, mix with water
 easy to use with brush or roller
 highly diffusible
 can be tinted with all earth and mineral pigments
 particularly suitable for people with allergies

Casein Marble Paint

 bound by milk protein

A natural white clay and light marble flours pro-

duce the homely matt finish of real clay. Tinting
the Clay Paint with Kreidezeit pigments opens up
a wide range of creative possibilities.

The Clay Paint - smooth - achieves smooth and

matt surfaces, the - textured - type contains addi-
tional marble grain (0.5 mm maximum), hence
resulting in a light plaster texture.

The outstanding characteristic of these paints is

the cloth-matt finish, which gives wall surfaces a
special and comforting look.

Product Characteristics
 Powder for mixing with water
 Colour: white
 low odour
 anti-static
 highly diffusible
 good opacity; can be painted over
several times
 free from preservatives and

Until the 1960‘s distemper paints have been the standard

choice for interior paint in West Germany and in East Germany,
even until the wall came down. Due to the wide spread usage
of ready-to-use synthetic dispersion paint the distemper paint
vanished from the market despite all of its advantages. We
preserve this treasure!

Distemper paint is ideal for ceilings because of its evenly

cloth-matt look. On stucco surface distempers are first choice,
since they can easily be removed with water. This would pre-
vent the fine structures from being clogged beyond repair.

They are also appreciated highly by people suffering from

allergies because of their simple emission-free and odourless
ingredients. Distemper is a low-tension paint and therefore
often the last hope on difficult and worn out surfaces. It is
suitable for almost all interior wall construction materials: all
plasters, all dispersion based colours, wallpaper, stone, dry wall.

Despite all advantages there is one disadvantage: distem-

pers are bound weakly and not waterproof. So it can only be
painted over with distemper.

Product characteristics
 Powder, mix with water
 very cost-effective/ our best value for money paint
 naturally white through marble powder
 highly diffusible
 can be tinted with all earth and mineral pigments
 without preservatives
 Tested and rated “Sehr gut - Very Good”
(Test: “Wall paints for people suffering from allergies” in
ÖKOTEST Bauen & Renovieren edition 4- a popular German
magazine introducing and testing environmentally friendly
construction materials)

Silicate Paint
Two-component paint (potassium waterglass + silicate white),
for durable and water- and weatherproof coatings interiors
and exteriors/facades. Both components, KREIDEZEIT Sili-
cate White and KREIDEZEIT Potassium Waterglass, are mixed
together shortly before application

GekkkoSOL Paint
GekkkoSOL paint is a mineral-based wall paint with very high
opacity. We recommend it especially for renovation of old plas-
tic-based coatings, especially acrylic-based dispersion paints.

GekkkoSOL FINE-Grain
GekkkoSOL FINE-Grain (garin: 0.5 mm) can be used as a sur-
face finish or as a bonding bridge for subsequent treatments
with products such as casein paints, lime paints and our lime
or casein based plasters.

GekkkoSOL Thinner

Wall Glazes

Wall glaze is a colourfully pigmented, yet not

opaque, transparent paint. It revives surfaces,
which looked rather dull and one-dimensional
before. This is not magic, but more due to a prin-
ciple of perception: The transparent layers on top
of each other trick the eye to see some depth on
the surface of the wall.

Usually the glaze would preferably be applied on

a light coloured surface, ideally a white surface.
In this way the glaze achieves the highest bril-
liance and plasticity. For the characteristic look
particularly fine grained waterproof surfaces are
suggested; e.g. our Lime Paint -textured-, Lime
Wall Finishes and GekkkoSOL Fine-Grain.

Pure lime-based products have a

positive impact on the room cli-
mate. Lime is naturally waterproof,
antistatic, highly diffusible, mould
inhibiting and releases no VOC. These
characteristics make lime a superbly
fitting raw material especially for
people with allergies.

For over 14.000 years lime has

proven itself as a building material
and coating agent. It is practically
infinitely available and, as for the
overall life cycle, perfectly environ-
mentally friendly. Lime is highly light
reflective and,, through the sublime
crystalline structure, it has its own
unique surface look.

Kreidezeit lime based products are

up-to-date to today‘s requirement
of easy handling and can be used on
modern surfaces like dry walls, plas-
ter fibre plates and gypsum plaster.
In our factory in Sehlem we manu-
facture a vast variety of lime based
products for different surface designs
including bright white marble lime,
local hydraulic lime and a fine selec-
tion of marble and quartz sand.

Kreidezeit Lime Paints are versatile wall paints for interior and
outside usage and are easy to use, even by non-profession-
als. They distinguish themselves due to enormous binding and
adhesive capabilities, resulting in wipe-proof and splash-proof
surfaces – without containing synthetic resin based binders
and synthetic pigments like titanium white. Furthermore, only
two coats cover sufficiently.

The marble sands in Lime Paint -textured- and Lime Paint

-high texture- give smooth surfaces a fine plaster texture and
keeps the look of existing fine-rough plasters, which would
be gone by over-coating with smooth wall paints. It results
in ideal sub-surfaces for vivid wall glazes and evens out slight
structural differences from the underlying surface. Pores and
fine cracks can be whitewashed.

Lime Wall Finishes

Our Lime Wall Finishes are versatile purely lime based plas-
ters for interior usage. The creative possibilities of surface
design span from rough to fine and smooth-shiny texture.
Kreidezeit Lime Wall Finishes are ready-to-use and don‘t
need further coatings.

Kreidezeit Lime Wall Finishes are easy to use even for non-pro-
fessionals. The drying time is intentionally made to be slow in
order to give enough time after application to work out the
desired texture.

They are ideal for moist areas through high diffusivity,

long lasting alkalinity and prevent condensation water on
their surfaces.

Fine Marble lime and Italian marble sand give these plasters
a high whiteness and very good binding and adhesion ability,
entirely without containing synthetic resin binders and syn-
thetic pigments like titanium white.

By the application of diluted vegetable based soap the sur-

faces can be made water repellent and are tintable with all
Kreidezeit pigments. Many additional creative effects can be
achieved through decorative aggregates (coloured Glass Peb-
bles, Muscovite Mica, Barley Straw Chaff).

Lime Wall Finishes are recommended for preparation of

sub-surfaces for our plaster products Stuccolustro, Mar-
morino, Tadelakt.

Mould Treatment
Fungi Sanifying plaster rubbed with a sponge Fungi Sanifying plaster smoothed with a trowel

Our Biocide-free Solution

Alcohol
removes small mildew stains with a one-off effect. Our pure alcohol can quickly and
easily remove mould stains. The fungus is removed on the surface, but this is only “first
aid”. Thereafter, further treatment should be given as soon as possible by the following
means:

Fungi Stop
encapsulates spores, binds them permanently and thus protects them from further spread.
At the same time, the surface becomes strongly alkaline, which prevents resettlement.
The mould remover does not cover the colour and should be painted over with lime paint
if necessary. It adheres to almost any surface and is also suitable, for example, for reno-
vating infested back walls of cabinets. Works for many months.

Lime Paint -smooth- and Lime Paint -high texture-

are our proven means for the permanent removal and colour covering of mould. A
double coating is usually sufficient to prevent the mould from recurring. Due to its
long-lasting alkalinity, lime has the best effect against moulds.

Fungi Sanyfying
is the best remedy against mould infestation on cold building parts such as poorly
insulated window lintels and reveals. Also infestation in cold bedroom corners and
bathrooms, which is usually associated with condensation moisture, can be perma-
nently controlled with Fungi Sanifying Plaster. Its enormous absorbency ensures a dry
and alkaline surface that permanently prevents further infestation.

Our recommendations refer to fungal infestation of max. 5 m². In case of massive infes-
tation of whole rooms or even buildings, an expert should be consulted. If in doubt,
you can discuss your issue with our technical advisors. Structural defects and special
features can impair the effect of the products presented.

Our decorative Polished plasters

are purely lime bound. They neither
contain synthetic resins nor trans-
parency reducing synthetic pigments
like titanium white.

These surfaces are naturally anti-fun-

gal. A further treatment with pure
vegetable soap gives additional
brilliance and makes the plaster
water-repellent. That is why they are
perfect for interior use even in rooms
with wet environments.

The smooth surface makes these

plasters very stain resistant and easy
to clean.

In combination with Kreidezeit pig-

ments harmonic colour shades can
be achieved. A finish with Punic wax
gives extreme brilliance in dry rooms
whereas pearlescent pigments give a
shimmering, refined finish.

Product Characteristics
 purely on mineral basis
 odourless and no VOC
 highly diffusible
 waterproof
 low tension

Stucco Fine Render

Stucco Fine Render is for wafer-thin Stucco layers
on smooth surfaces. With just two layers the
typical Stucco look can be achieved. Even for
beginners this technique is easy to achieve by
making a simple application with a trowel.

Stuccolustro
Stuccolustro is a filling which uses fine marble
sand. The resulting slightly thicker layer provides
a vivid optical depth and translucency. It is rec-
ommended for surfaces with shiny and transparent
looks of polished marble. Wonderful shades of
colour can be created by using the Venetian plas-
ter technique and then burnishing with a trowel.
With the product variant Stuccolustro Basis, espe-
cially vivid colours can be achieved.

Marmorino
A polishing plaster covering the complete sur-
face of subtle uniform elegance. Changing light
has the unobtrusive oscillating effect of polished
natural stone. Marmorino is only applied with a
smoothing trowel and is then burnished.

Tadelakt
Tadelakt is a traditional plaster technique from
Morocco, already widespread and popular since
ancient times. The surface is treated with a spe-
cial polishing technique using a smooth stone.
The circular polishing moves result in the typical
fine cloudy Tadelakt look. In this way the surface
ends up in an expressive, shiny surface of warm,
silk-like texture. Tadelakt is bound with hydraulic
lime. This makes it possible to use it in wet rooms
like showers and saunas.

We offer workshops about polishing techniques

regularly in interesting and hands-on seminars.
You can find the dates on our homepage.

Decorative aggregates are mixed into our wall

paints and plasters. They enhance creative pos-
sibilities of our products for the surface design.

Vermiculite
Vermiculite is avery light, natural, lightly beige-
coloured mica that has been bloated under heat.
Worked into a thin-layered plaster, it creates a
shiny golden inclusion. Then it is burst while
scraping the surface after a short drying time.

Muscovite Mica
Muscovite Mica is a natural light-coloured mica
for pearlescent effects on paints or plaster.
Muscovite is a shingle-type natural mineral with
a glass-like or mother-of-pearl-like surface and
silver shiny light reflexes.

Barley Straw Chaff

For Barley Straw Chaff finely chopped straw is
used as an aggregate for Kreidezeit wall colours
and plasters, which gives a natural texture and
subtle light effects on the surface.

Decorative Aggregates
Decorative Aggregates

Glass Pebbles
Glass Pebbles are round shaped grit the size of
about 1-3 mm made from coloured glass with-
out sharp edges. It is available in 6 transparent
colours and black. When properly applied with
Kreidezeit plaster, the results are shiny colourful
inclusions with depth. The effect on the surface
depends on the lighting.

Walnut Shell Granules

Fine granulate made from walnut shells gives our
plasters a finely dotted structure.

Earth and Mineral Pigments

Our coloured pigments can be used with all of our Keidezeit
wall paints and plasters as well as with oil glazes and oil
paints.

The product range currently includes about 40 earth and min-

eral pigments- pure earth pigments from all over Europe (e.g.
Cypriot umbers and ochre from Roussillon, ultramarines, spi-
nels and pure iron oxides). All pigments are non-poisonous,
light-fast and can be mixed with one another. Almost any
imaginable colour shade can be mixed. Some suggestions can
be found in the Kreidezeit colour charts.

 without preservatives
 pulverized, dry
 pure pigments without aggregates and binders

Pearlescent Pigments
Pearlescent Pigments give walls and wood surfaces fascinating
glitter effects, pearlescent shimmer or metallic shine. They are
structured similar to pearls. A natural glimmer core is wrapped
with one or more layers of metal oxides (e.g. titanium oxide
or iron oxide).

Pearlescent pigments are available in different colour shades:

expressive gold, silver, bronze and interference pigments
with fascinating colour effects depending on the perspective.
Pearlescent Pigments can be used for transparent colourless
binders like Carnauba Wax Emulsion, Punic Wax, wall glaze
binders, oil glazes and smoothing soap. They are non-poison-
ous, light-fast and compatible with all binders.

Wood Surfaces

Wood is a unique material and has always been used by humans for con-
struction. The benefits, including the look and the organic surface, which
is comforting to the tactile sense, are its constructive characteristics: Elas-
ticity and stability. To keep these qualities and even enhance them natural
oil-based paint is the best choice.

The integral part of Kreidezeit wood paint is the well drying linseed oil.
Used for hundreds of years it has played a vital role in the preservation of
historical buildings. Linseed oil is obtained by pressing seeds of the flax
plant. Due to the extremely small molecules (about 50 times smaller than
synthetic resin molecules) it penetrates deep into even smallest wood
pores. For the life of the wood upon which it is used, it stays elastic and
highly diffusible. It reliably prevents cracks in coats and water logging
in wood. We manufacture a variety of products based on linseed oil, pine
resin, stand oil, Portuguese balsam turpentine oil and mineral pigments
for the treatment of wood.

Carefully thought-out formulas using environmentally friendly and sustain-

able raw materials based on the science of building physics guarantee the
highest safety in application and use. In addition, no hazardous waste is
left behind when the materials have to be disposed. These factors make
natural Kreidezeit products superior for the treatment of wood in compari-
son to wide-spread fast drying acrylic- and synthetic resin-based products
in many respects. Our oil-based products are free of lead, barium and
cobalt.

All products are subject to strict internal quality controls. All raw materials
are selected with the utmost care. Of course thorough declaration of all
raw materials used is essential to us.

Multi Purpose Wax

Due to the usage of linseed oil as binder and natural beeswax
the wood surface gets a typical vivid honey-coloured wood
grain. The beeswax fills pores and results in a silky-velvety
surface.

Safflower Multi Purpose Wax

Non-yellowing oil extracted from the Safflower and discoloured
beeswax gives the surface a typical oil-enhanced wood grain
opposite to the honey coloured shade typical from linseed oil
treatment.

Linseed Oil Varnish

Linseed Oil Varnish is the traditional and long-proven sur-
face treatment for many kinds of wood in interior areas. It
is honey coloured and wood grain enhancing. This product is
well suited for less heavy-duty surfaces, such as: furniture,
panels and woodwork. Linseed Oil Varnish can also be appro-
priately used as a solvent-free primer for coloured oil glazes
and covering oil paint.

paints in low-stress areas: Ceilings, wall panels, beams.

GekkkoSOL Lazure
GekkkoSOL Lazure is a glaze based on silicate. The product
contains no solvents and is absolutely odourless. GekkkoSOL
Lazure is ideal for coatings on wooden ceilings and wall-pan-
els and replaces the traditional beer-based glaze, but without
the strong pub-like smell.

Mixed with titanium white you can achieve the look of white-
washed wood. Rubbed in with a sponge, this white glaze
brightens wood up without looking “coated” and protects
from further darkening.

Wood Lazures are transparent and/or coloured paints for exte-

rior wood, e.g. wooden framework constructions, façades,
fences, garden furniture or playground equipment.

In manufacturing we use a combination of linseed oil, several

stand oils and colophonium resin. This formula guarantees
superb adhesion with wood and results in a weather-proof and
elastic coating. Due to the permeability of the wood glaze
moisture from inner parts of the wood is transported outside.

When weathering, the glaze does not blister or crack and will
not flake, but wears down bit by bit over time. Maintenance is
easy- simply clean and paint over. Sanding is not necessary.

Wood Lazure
Stand Oil Paint

The Kreidezeit Stand Oil Paint system is an

enhancement of centuries-old and proven oil for-
mulas with optimal permeability.

Stand Oil Paint is a covering and resin-free paint

for wood and metal for interior and exterior use
on wood framework, playground equipment, win-
dows, doors and wood panelling. It does not
blister, crack or flake, but stays elastic and wears
down little by little. That is why it can be renewed
even years after application with a minimum of
effort by simply cleaning and painting over.

The layer structure of application is traditionally

from “lean to rich”:
1. Base Oil - penetrates deeply into the wood
2. Half-rich intermediate coat - extremely high
opacity
3. Full-rich finishing coat - long lasting weather
protection

Kreidezeit Stand Oil Paint is available in 14 colour

shades, which can be mixed with one another. We
also offer a mixing chart for approximately 100
colour shades. Stand Oil Paint contains highly
light-fast and weather-proof earth and mineral
pigments. We manufacture additional, individual
colour shades on request.

Even the Eiffel tower has been protected from

rust with the “good old armour scale paint”.
Thousands of locomotives and wagons have been
coated with it. Experience clearly demonstrates:
This pure linseed micaceous iron ore paint guar-
antees permanent protection from rust.

Micaceous iron ore is a naturally occurring shiny-

black pigment in the shape of scales, building a
protective coat on metal, which prevents water
from sinking in. It is mentioned in old painter
books as “armour scale paint”. Kreidezeit Rust
Protection Paint contains a huge quantity of mica.

Due to the small size of molecules, linseed oil

is an excellent coating and penetrates remaining
rust particles. They will be reliably enclosed and
prevented from further rusting. This principle is
also called „passive corrosion protection“.

Additionally, easy rust removal by hand is suf-

ficient for most conventional materials (to SA 1
degree – “Brush-off Blast Cleaning”).

Kreidezeit Rust Protection Paint scored best in

comparison with 33 rust protection paints, 30
of them have been conventional paints. (ARD

information programme on national TV, in March
1999, conducted by the Institute for Corrosion
Protection (IKS) in Dresden). Colour: anthracite

 Cleaning & Care

Corfu Soap
A pure olive oil soap, made in a manufactory on
the Greek island of Corfu. Hand-boiled in a pro-
cedure proven for over 150 years from regionally
produced olive oil.

Without any addition of dyes, preservatives and

fragrances. Due to its re-lubricating effect, it is
excellently suited for the gentle cleaning of oiled
or waxed wood surfaces. This is especially true
for floors. Due to its low cold water solubility,
this soap is particularly suitable as sole treatment
for „soaped wooden floors“, offering good protec-
tion and step resistance. Corfu soap is pleasantly
mild to the skin and also cares for more sensi-
tive surfaces such as marble floors and linoleum.
Corfu soap can also be used very well for cleaning
brushes and paint rollers.

Marseille Soap
Kreidezeit Marseille soap is a pure vegetable-based
soap simmered out of palm kernel oil and coconut
oil. Like Corfu Soap, Marseille Soap can be used
for cleaning and care.

Polishing Soap
-Concentrate-
Polishing Soap is used as a finishing treatment for
a high gloss effect on Stuccolustro and Tadelakt
surfaces. Gently dissolved in water and worked
into sufficiently alkaline lime surfaces a part of
the natural soap is changing into so called lime
soap, which gives the surface of the wall hydro-
phobic and dirt-resistant characteristics without
limiting permeability.

Olive Care Soap

Olive care soap is a liquid household soap for the
cleaning of oiled or waxed surfaces, as a cleaner
for oil-contaminated paint brushes and rollers as
well as for soaping wooden floors. Olive care soap
also maintains more sensitive surfaces such as
marble floors and joints.
The base of this product is our Corfu Soap, a pure
olive soap, made on the Greek island of Corfu.

Carnauba Wax Emulsion

- Concentrate -
Kreidezeit Carnauba Wax Emulsion maintains and protects oiled wood sur-
faces, especially flooring. It can be used as an additive for the cleaning
and rinsing water, but can also be applied directly. Carnauba Wax Emulsion
is one of the hardest natural waxes and gives dull surfaces a silky gloss.

Window Care Set

The Window Care Set is recommended for cleaning and care of our Wood
Lazures and Stand Oil Paints outdoors. The maintenance of an oil paint
outdoors is useful. This makes a renovation unnecessary for many years.
Especially with windows care is much less expensive than a renovation.
With the Care Soap soiled coats can be cleaned gently. A treatment with
Window Care Oil brings dull areas back to their original color intensity and
shine.

Care Oil
Care Oil for maintaining KREIDEZEIT Stand Oil Paints or tinted Wood
Lazures exteriors. Restores the protective qualities and original colour of
weathered surfaces that have become dull and pale. Application on win-
dows, doors, wooden facades, timber frames, playground equipment, car
ports and much more. It’s easy to do and means you will have to re-paint
less often.
