As smog, for years, has been ruining palaces, monuments and urban centers, a big space in construction and architecture was given to the research of materials able to maintain over time the aesthetic quality of the buildings. TX Active was successfully tested: this is the "smog eating" principle patented by Italcementi Group, a leading provider of building materials. TX Active is applied on the surface as it is the only portion that interacts with the atmosphere; the photocatalytic principle is not used in structural applications but only where it is possible to maintain modest thicknesses: from a few centimeters up to a few millimeters.
