Once cleaned, the fabrics can be protected with PROTEX, a water-repellent and dirt-resistant treatment ideal for both outdoor and indoor use. It does not alter the appearance of the materials and provides protection for up to 12 months.
The content concludes by emphasizing the importance of consistent maintenance to prevent damage, extend the life of the fabrics, and make future cleaning easier.
In a villa located in the Tuscan countryside, a restoration was carried out on an outdoor terracotta floor, which had deteriorated due to mould, lichens, moss, and black stains caused by moisture. The main goal was to effectively remove mould and lichens and protect the material over time.
During the cleaning phase, the team used ALGANET®—a professional stain remover specifically formulated to eliminate biological colonies from terracotta and stone surfaces. The treatment successfully removed even the most stubborn encrustations without damaging the material.
Afterwards, they applied TIM®—a transparent and breathable protective product designed to prevent the future formation of mould, stains, and new lichens. This product has the advantage of preserving the aesthetic appearance of terracotta while maintaining its breathability.
The final result is a fully restored terracotta surface: clean, protected, easy to maintain, and resistant to atmospheric agents. This intervention stands as a concrete example of how to remove mould and lichens in a long-lasting and professional way, thanks to Marbec products.
The Marbec bathroom cleaning product line offers professional solutions designed to ensure hygiene, shine, and ease of use. Among the most effective options is a high-adhesion acidic gel that removes build-up, limescale, and organic residues from toilets and urinals. It clings perfectly to vertical surfaces, allowing for deep and targeted cleaning.
The company Pippolo carried out a complete treatment on an outdoor black concrete floor, with the goal of protecting it from weathering and preserving its appearance over time. The process began with a deep cleaning using VIACEM and a Tynex pad, followed by the application of the hydro-oil repellent protector TIM. Finally, a finishing product was applied, giving the concrete a matte, enhanced look that is resistant to rain, sun, and dirt. The result is a surface that is enhanced, protected, and easy to maintain.
During renovation work, it’s easy to end up with cement residues on floors which, if left to dry, can damage the surfaces and make cleaning difficult. To remove them, you can act manually using plastic scrapers, brushes, and damp cloths, or rely on specific products depending on the type of flooring.
For terracotta, VIACEM is ideal—it’s a buffered acid that removes encrustations without damaging the surface.
For natural stone, DELICACID is gentle yet effective, even on the most stubborn stains.
For porcelain stoneware, POWER DET provides deep cleaning without leaving streaks.
Alternatively, you can try natural methods like vinegar, baking soda, and lemon—though these are only suitable for light stains.
It’s important to avoid metal tools, overly aggressive detergents, or excessive scrubbing to prevent damaging the material.
Once cleaned, the floor should be protected with specific treatments and maintained with regular cleaning.
With the right precautions and Marbec products, removing cement becomes simple and effective.
Discover how to keep your outdoor surfaces looking their best with the use of specialized products like Alganet, a powerful cleaner, combined with effective tools such as the Brown Pad and TIM. These elements are essential for ensuring a deep, long-lasting clean for exterior walls, which are constantly exposed to weather and pollution.
Alganet works by removing moss, algae, and embedded dirt without damaging the underlying materials. The Brown Pad allows for thorough cleaning even on delicate surfaces without scratching them, while TIM completes the treatment by protecting the walls from future buildup.
Beyond cleaning, it’s important to adopt regular preventive care practices to help maintain the appearance of these structures over time. With the right approach, your walls won’t just look immaculate—they’ll also be shielded from premature wear, ensuring lasting beauty!
Cleaning after laying wood-effect porcelain stoneware is essential to enhance its aesthetics and ensure its durability. This type of floor combines elegance and practicality, but requires careful maintenance to preserve its original beauty.
The company Emilia & Pippo has demonstrated the effectiveness of POWER DET, a high-performance descaling detergent, ideal for removing yard residues, stubborn stains and halos on both polished and matt surfaces.
Thanks to their professionalism and the use of specific products, Emilia & Pippo offer a deep and thorough cleaning service, restoring porcelain stoneware to its full splendour from day one.
The restoration of a flood-damaged Tuscan terracotta floor is a complex process that requires specific techniques and products. Impresa Pippolo di Timpano Giuseppe, specialised in the treatment of surfaces made of stone materials, carried out a targeted restoration operation, divided into two main phases: de-waxing and protective treatment.
The first phase involved removing old layers of wax and dirt residues with SGRISER, a powerful alkaline-solvent wax remover. Next, VIACEM, a buffered acid detergent, was used to remove cement slurries and salt efflorescence.
After thorough cleaning, EXCEL PLUS was applied, an anti-stain protective agent that penetrates deep into the terracotta without altering its breathability. To complete the treatment, a finish was applied with IDROFIN MATT, a matt wax that protects the surface and facilitates maintenance.
Thanks to the use of professional products and the experience of Impresa Pippolo di Timpano Giuseppe, the floor has regained its original beauty, becoming more resistant to wear and weathering. This type of treatment not only restores the aesthetics of the terracotta but also ensures its durability, reducing the need for future maintenance.
Floor-cleaning robots simplify household cleaning, but to keep them efficient, it is essential to use specific detergents. ROBOGRES and ROBOPARQUET are low-foam concentrated solutions, ideal for porcelain stoneware and parquet, respectively. ROBOGRES prevents streaks, protects surfaces, and leaves a fresh scent, while ROBOPARQUET ensures deep cleaning, quick drying, and gentleness on wooden floors. Both have a neutral pH, making them safe for children and pets. The use of distilled water is recommended to prevent limescale buildup and maintain the robot’s efficiency.
