Brings life to concrete
Modern humans spend more than 90 percent of their lifetime indoors. Built spaces surround us like a second skin. The need for well-being is understandably increasing rapidly. The materials have a decisive influence. They have a direct effect on our well-being, health and thus our development opportunities.
The most important building material today is concrete: the philosopher's stone in modern architecture. In this context, more and more people are asking themselves the question: What does concrete actually do? What new influences are entering our living space and the biosphere of the planet with concrete? Answering these questions was the driving force behind the research and development of Pneumatit® products, with the aim of restoring the living properties of concrete and bringing it as close as possible to those of ecological building materials.

The concrete experience
How do we react with our feelings to concrete? What are the consequences for the well-being, health and development opportunities of humans and nature?
Many people experience adverse effects that come from concrete - regardless of the design. This ranges from a slight subliminal discomfort to irritability, inner cold sensations, joint pain, exhaustion and organic disorders. Such feelings are based on a reality, because in the industrial production of cement the soil of the natural life processes is broken through. The result: a lifeless building material with an absorbing effect on our organism, but offering architectural advantages that can hardly be achieved with other materials. That is why concrete challenges us to constant innovation. Concrete deserves the next step.

Building for the future
Pneumatit® was developed as part of the ecological and social project Fintan, which was founded in Rheinau (CH) in 1998. His formula was first used in a construction project in 2006, namely in the construction of a biodynamic playpen: the aim was to create a concrete that is not a foreign body but still meets the requirements for livability. And it was achieved: in the form of the liquid additive Pneumatit®. And although Pneumatit® was not originally developed for sale and marketing, but only for personal use, external demand grew slowly but steadily until it actively appeared on the market in early 2016 - ten years after its first application.
We at Lehm-Laden are pleased to have Pneumatit® products in our range, because they correspond to our philosophy of "green building": innovation in the field of building materials, from a sustainable perspective and committed to the well-being of people and the ecosystem.
The Pneumatit® recipe
The EU-wide approved concrete additive Pneumatit® is added to the fresh concrete, usually in the factory. All of the starting materials for Pneumatit® are natural: a range of metals, herbal and mineral homeopathics - all of them self-made - and much more. Each substance is chosen because it carries certain forces into the concrete, always with regard to people and the world.
The subtle, lengthy and complex manufacturing process is entirely manual. Apart from precision balance, refrigerator and electric light (light bulb), no technical aids are used, but various processing devices developed by them. Manufacturing involves several substances that are produced in the sense of by-products. Each of them is introduced into the main line of production in a specific way and at specific times. In total, the production includes around 100 steps over 2 working weeks. The end product, ready for use, has the homeopathic format D7. This is another reason why Pneumatit® does not have any physical or chemical influence on the building material.
The invisible made visible
We can neither see the forces that conventional concrete exerts on us nor those that emanate from Pneumatit® concrete with our physical eyes. Their effects have been measured in comparative tests: with the HRV method, with psychometry, with electroacupuncture, in Bovis units. They are described in the reports of direct investigations at the superphysical level. And many experience reports describe them very consistently over the years and place.
But isn't there a method to make the invisible visible more directly? Yes, examining the crystallization with dark field microscopy.
Comparative tests with water crystallization
The human organism consists mostly of water: up to 75 percent in children, up to 65 percent in men and women. Water is a very formative element, it opens our organism to many influences. When water crystallizes, the life forces it contains play an active role. This creates specifically designed microstructures: The qualities of the life forces involved cause their own different forms of crystallization. Under laboratory conditions, this can be used for representative comparative studies:
Pristine spring water: Organic crystal structures make the creative potential of natural life forces visible. (magnification factor x 200)
Spring water after conventional concrete: Dead structures throughout, the life processes are completely stifled (x 200)
