Numerous historical structures and ancient buildings have been, and are, still being damaged by the use of the wrong material. The encapsulation of lime mortars, lime plasters, soft stone or bricks behind materials lacking breathability, softness and chemical neutrality, results in dramatic failures, not only of the restoration work but in the host masonry as well. The use of lime mortar allows for the right mix design, when compatibility is the main objective.
