Effective Moisture Management
Decades of exposure to wind and weather – combined with missing gutters and drainage – had taken their toll on the old train station. The exterior walls were damp, resulting in dark patches of mould inside.
”A complete renovation was required to preserve the building and ensure a healthy indoor climate for future residents," says Torben Bjerg, Site Manager at Bo-To.
"When we heard about SkamoWall, we quickly realized it was the ideal solution to the building’s moisture and mould issues. SkamoWall is installed on the inside, which meant we could renovate the building without altering the facade – a crucial factor for a listed building like this," Torben explains.
SkamoWall regulates moisture by naturally absorbing and releasing it, preventing mould growth. "It has been a very effective solution. You can almost see that the building is ‘breathing’ better now, and we can feel that the indoor climate has improved significantly. The mould that previously damaged the walls and the indoor environment is gone," says Torben.
