LOVECEMENT pieces are made of fibre cement, which makes for a resistant, yet light.
The resistance of cement combined with the lightness of the objects enables to place them outdoor - on the edge of a swimming pool, in a garden, in damp places – and to move them at will later on. A protective film is applied on the outside of the collection to prevent cement releasing particles as well as to make LOVECEMENT resistant to the elements, without altering the features of cement.
LOVECEMENT retains such features as formal imperfections, not perfectly squared angles or small holes not affecting functionality.
Each LOVECEMENT piece is hand-finished and has unique nuances of colour. Therefore, slight variations of colour between pieces and slight chiaroscuro do not represent defects. On the contrary, they are evidence of the performance of the material. Accordingly, dimensions in this catalogue are rough (margin of error: +/- 2%): each piece is unique.
LOVECEMENT, like any other type of cement, can be painted or personalised at will. It behaves just like a concrete wall, it is therefore advisable to use suitable products.
Supplied with non-slip black to compensate for uneven ground for all products except Clap collection.
All LOVECEMENTproducts can be fixed to the ground. |
Our material is a pre-blended, one-component thixotropic cementitious mortar, made from sulphate-resistant hydraulic binders, polyacrylonitrile synthetic fibres, inorganic fibres, organic corrosion inhibitors, special admixtures and selected aggregates. |
Hydro-oil repellent and anti-stain treatment for cementitious surfaces. Protection film is a one-component product in water dispersion made from micro-
emulsions specially formulated to be efficient against problems with stains on floors.
Through the polymeric chains which penetrate into the porosity and hook into the substrate, and by collecting at the surface to repel watery and oily substances. |
Handworks LOVECEMENT be used as seats or tables of support.
They not guaranteed for misuse.
Collection LOVECEMENT should be handled with care when moving and positioning.
The surface treatment has high characteristics of water-repellency and protects the cement from the capillary penetration of water, from the entrance of chlorides or of potential pollutants.
It loses its effectiveness after 20 cycles of freezing and thawing in the presence of salts disruptive, so you should give a protective treatment after about 3/5 years of use.
The fiber-reinforced concrete LOVECEMENT is not suitable for direct contact with a heat source. |
For the ordinary cleaning, use a soft cloth dampened with water and mild detergents.
They can be cleaned with water jets using the pressure washer.
NOT SUITABLE PRODUCTS
Do not clean the surfaces with denatured alcohol which, once dried, may leave stains difficult to remove. Avoid cleaning the surface with products containing bleach or anyway with a high PH basic which, in the event of prolonged applications, may create a whitish halo.
Trycoethylene, industrial solvents, hydrofluoric acid, caustic soda and paint solvents are other products that can damage the surface. |
