Performance building system
Titanium dioxide, because of its innate qualities of a photocatalyst, when exposed to sunlight, can trigger a process of autodegradazione of pollutants, particularly oxides of nitrogen contained in the processes of combustion of petroleum products. A speech
simple in theory but complex in practice. The tiles Auranox fact, in the presence of exhaust gases produced by boilers, industrial equipment and vehicles thanks to convert sunlight into smog inert salts that are washed out by rain.
The new technology also does not wear off over time its beneficial effect to the environment, but continues to operate throughout the life of the roof.
The tile also showed, after two years of installation, aesthetic qualities remarkable, since the titanium dioxide makes the roof surface self-cleaning and resistant to mold and fungi of all types, ensuring the unchanging beauty for many years. In terms of color coverage, in warm shades of brown Greek Cup Terra Umbra, integrates seamlessly with the surrounding environment in any way without distorting the aesthetics of the home, but increases the value of the fine details.

Commonly used as a component in plastic industry products, textiles and cosmetics, is also known as a catalyst, a substance that is involved in a chemical reaction by increasing the speed or reduced without alteration.
The application of technology Auranox ® on the tile surface allows a "self cleaning".
organic substances, which inevitably settle on the cover are in fact transformed into carbon dioxide and water through the process of photo-oxidation, thus preventing the formation of algae and mosses.

AURANOX ® photocatalyst oxidize pollutants
Through a process of photo-oxidation, the new surface AURANOX ®
of Wierer turns harmful nitrogen oxides (NO x ), the main components of air pollution in common inorganic salts.

LABORATORY TESTS Laboratory tests were conducted on a sample of the tile surface Auranox ® introduced in a test chamber. The graph shows the results of tests performed.
The pollutant NO x inevitable product of any combustion process, is introduced into the chamber providing a steady stream over time.
The power of a light source of adequate intensity enables the activation of Auranox ®.
In a relatively short period of time, Auranox ® is able to reduce 90% of the pollutants thus demonstrating its effectiveness. Subsequent tests have shown that switching off the light source results in an immediate increase in the concentration of NO x as evidence of the new anti-smog Wierer tile.
In the presence of light the surface of smog pollutants Wierer eliminates about 4 times more than a traditional tile.

Intervention
The first in Italy to install roof tiles with cement the addition of titanium dioxide is Bertinoro in the province of Forli-Cesena, just a few kilometers away from the production of Wierer that supplies for more than thirty years and part of Emilia Romagna in central Italy.
coverage of semi-detached house, which covers 200 square meters, represents the first application of the impressive project that led to the birth of Auranox , the tile eco-activities that make smog in inert salts pollutants.
With this system it was possible to transform and eliminate over a year, the Euro IV emission of pollutants by a car mid-sized assuming an average distance of about 18,000 km per year.
