St. Blasien Cathedral, southern Black Forest

The floor of St. Blasien Cathedral is made of Carrara marble and impresses with elaborate inlays of Nero Marquina and grey limestone. Over the years, the use and installation of metallic objects led to general soiling and rust discoloration, which made targeted renovation necessary.

The desired solution was to refurbish the floors without sanding measures, combined with effective protection against stains and an increase in ease of maintenance. This approach made it possible to preserve the beauty of the natural stone, while at the same time significantly improving the suitability for everyday use and durability of the floor.

The application technology of the company Lithofin accompanied the company Vogt Fliesentechnik GmbHfrom Rickenbach during the entire project with professional advice and technical Empfehlungen.Im In advance, various cleaning and care procedures were tested in order to determine a solution that was tailored to the existing material, as gentle as possible and at the same time effective.

Karl-Martin Essig, application engineer at Lithofin und Steinmetz und Steinbildhauer, carried out extensive material and practical tests and was continuously on hand to advise during the execution. Thanks to his expertise, the suitable products and the optimal procedure for cleaning and care could be reliably determined.

The close cooperation of all parties involved ensured a smooth process on site and enabled a high-quality, professionally executed result that met the requirements of the project in every respect.
