Product name: Shikkui Kurumu
Active ingredient: Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2)
Manufacturer: NIPPON PLASTER CO.,LTD
Origin: Japan
The main ingredient of Shikkui Kurumu plaster is (Ca(OH)2), which is also the main solidifying material.
Usually in construction, when using plaster as wall paint, we must mix it according to the golden ratio to be able to achieve high aesthetics as well as to fully utilise the function of cleaning the living environment. Because of this principle, it is very difficult to get the right ratio, leading to the production of unsuitable products as well as losing the function of plaster.
Therefore, Nippon Plaster Co., Ltd has developed Shikkui Kurumu, a mixture that can be used immediately after opening.
Shikkui Kurumu has strong alkaline properties, which can both balance the pH level in the house and prevent bacteria and mold from growing on the wall surface. Shikkui has a light stone-like texture, with small air holes inside, which continuously absorb and release moisture in the surrounding environment, helping to regulate the humidity in the room. In addition, Shikkui also has the effect of neutralizing Formaldehyde, a substance that has a negative impact on human health. Studies have shown that Shikkui Kurumu can control condensation, deodorise, and is heat proof.
Shikkui Kurumu has achieved Japanese DISA 6909 certification and is currently awaiting assessment and issuance of other ISO certifications.
