Beyond Walls: How Mineral Technology Is Redefining Indoor Surfaces

When we talk about mould, bacteria, and electromagnetic exposure, most solutions focus on treating the problem after it appears. But material science is increasingly asking a better question:

👉 What if the surface itself was designed to resist the problem from the start?

Recent research shared by Dr Stanisław W. further expands the understanding of how ADRSOL mineral-based powder interacts with its environment — not only on walls, but across a wide range of surfaces.

More than walls

The findings confirm that ADRSOL can be incorporated into multiple material layers, including:

• floor substrates before polishing or finishing,

• mineral plasters and renders,

• composite materials,

• and even flexible applications, such as insoles.

In each case, the principle is the same: the material helps create surface conditions that are less favourable to mould and bacterial development, while also contributing to long-term electromagnetic field (EMF) interaction and attenuation.

Why floors are especially exciting

Floors are often overlooked in indoor-environment design, yet they:

• cover the largest surface area,

• accumulate moisture and contaminants,

• and sit directly in the path of electromagnetic exposure.

When ADRSOL is applied before floor polishing, it becomes an integral part of the structure — not a coating that wears off. This means its functional properties remain embedded for the lifetime of the floor.

Unexpected applications: from buildings to the body

One particularly interesting area of exploration is insoles. While not a medical product, the same mineral principles can be applied to materials that remain in constant contact with the human body, opening conversations around:

• personal environments,

• material interaction,

• and long-duration exposure in everyday life.

A material-first philosophy

This research does not claim miracles. Instead, it strengthens a simple idea: better materials create better environments — quietly, passively, and over time.

That’s where the future of healthy buildings is heading.
