Fresh White No. 328

Fresh air you can paint on: AURO Frischeweiß No. 328 is a wall paint made consistently from raw materials of natural origin, with a photocatalytic effect. A special combination of raw materials acts as a catalyst which, with the help of light, breaks down odours and pollutants in the air into neutral substances.

The photocatalytic effect has been tested and was rated ‘good’ in the practical test by the magazine “selber machen” (05/2017). The paint can be tinted with AURO Lime Tinting Paint No. 350, although this may reduce its photocatalytic properties.
