Decorative Finish

Shikkui Izumi is used to create highly polished, glass and stone like finishes, similar to Venetian plaster stucco & stone effects. It elevates the look of any room and needs to be applied by a trained professional.

Humidity Regulating:

Made of a highly porous and absorbent mineral which allows it to effectively hold and release moisture.

Disinfects the Air:

As the porous surface of Shikkui Izumi absorbs bacteria, viruses, mold and other toxins, its high alkali properties naturally disinfect and create an inhospitable surface for viruses and bacteria to grow.

Absorbs VOCs, Odours & CO2:

Shikkui Izumi’s porous nature allows it to absorb VOCs, odours and CO2. Its photocatalytic capabilities actively breaks down VOCs into harmless compounds and neutralizes odours. While its CO2 absorption contributes to its carbonation, creating a durable surface.

All-Natural:

Made from all-natural materials and in a combination that makes it non-toxic.

Durable:

As Shikkui Izumi dries the slaked lime is turned into calcium carbonate through the process of carbonation, creating a durable and crack-resistant surface designed to last.
