How to Remove Mould and Lichens from Outdoor Terracotta: Intervention in a Villa in Tuscany with ALGANET®
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.

Cleaning with a floor-washing robot: choose ROBOGRES and ROBOPARQUET for perfect results
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.
