Preservation of Cultural Heritage

Éviter ® present in the protection of cultural assets

For decades, fungicides have been used to disinfect organic materials and in the conservation and restoration of cultural assets. However, some have been restricted due to the potential damage they can cause to the materials that make up the artifacts and the health risks they pose to living beings. In recent decades, the use of essential oils has replaced the use of fungicides in cultural assets due to their effectiveness and low toxicity to humans.

In Mexico, citrus essential oils have been particularly used, but none of the products on the market have been formulated with nanobiomolecules.

Today, Éviter Biosalud® Nebulizing Sanitizer is being used to control microorganisms that degrade cultural assets such as fungi, spores, bacteria, and mycobacteria.

It has been directly applied to a variety of artifacts made from organic and inorganic materials such as wood, textiles, paper, photographs, easel painting, mural painting, ceramics, and metal.

It has been used to disinfect libraries, offices, warehouses, restoration laboratories, museums, construction transport vehicles, and their packing boxes.

Éviter® products, in addition to guaranteeing the conservation of cultural assets, generate bio-safe spaces for restorers who work on works infested with microorganisms, since the pathogens present in cultural assets are not only capable of degrading the materials that make up the works, but also pose a risk to the health of those handling the objects, whether for research, analysis, documentation, and/or conservation-restoration purposes.
