For Color Explorer

With our new Baumit facade app, we are using artificial intelligence for the first time! This makes us proud pioneers for AI on the facade. It’s best to try it out now!

What makes a façade special is the interplay of architecture and colour design. If you are building a house from scratch, the material, structure and colour scheme interact from the planning stage onwards. It gets trickier when renovating existing buildings. New roof – but in what colour? What used to be state of the art no longer really fits today. The possibilities for façade design have also become incredibly diverse thanks to innovative materials. So how do you know what is available and what harmonises with what or sets interesting accents?

Customised facades with our app
A closer look at the facade of a house reveals that many components interact here. With the Baumit facade app, you can design each one individually and then assess the overall work. The Baumit facade app offers a quick and uncomplicated decision-making aid in just a few steps.

How the facade app works
Simply open the app on your smartphone, take a photo of the desired facade and upload the image. Thanks to artificial intelligence running in the background, the app captures the facade so precisely that you can edit its colour. Right down to the last detail.

Automatic colour suggestions
In our facade app, you can choose from over 1,000 colours before deciding on the right one. And best of all, our app also shows you the right Baumit products for the job. 

Exciting new features
Like any app, you can look forward to updates to the Baumit facade app that make editing your own design even easier or more varied.

 

 

With Diessner PEARLS we are
innovation leaders

Simpler, more sustainable and more accurate. The new mixing system simplifies the entire mixing process. From now on, we can fulfil our customers’ every colour request directly – without all the effort that used to be involved.

The situation before the development of Diessner PEARLS©: Operating a mixing machine on site means that you also have to maintain it. It has to be meticulously cleaned every day and yet the nozzles of little-used shafts regularly become clogged. The pastes thicken or are simply no longer durable after a certain time. Technician visits are expensive, not to mention the associated downtime.

In addition, the pastes commonly available on the market contain up to 70% water. This can significantly reduce the viscosity of the end product, depending on the colour shade. The wetting agents contained in the pastes to stabilise the paste are also much higher than required in the subsequent tints.

Diessner PEARLS© provides smaller retailers in particular with a system that puts an end to these problems. The choice of colours for façades and interiors is now almost unlimited, so everyone can find their favourite shade. It’s great that the realisation is now much easier for fabricators.  

The solution: freeze-dried pigment preparations – easy to dose, easy to incorporate and with an almost unlimited shelf life.

Diessner PEARLS© also no longer need to be transported and stored frost-free. Another advantage: the containers empty completely when used. No loss of material and ecologically valuable. Tinting with Diessner PEARLS© is preservative-free and precise, so that even 1 litre containers can be tinted reproducibly.

The end product has no loss of viscosity due to the addition of water and therefore no disadvantages in terms of hiding power, application, weather stability and
mechanical strength.

The colour specialist Diessner is continuing on the path it has been on since 2015 with a holistic preservative-free system. Together, as innovation leaders, we are embarking on a colourful and sustainable future.
