Antimicrobial Nanotechnology
Our coating technology is based on the use of Quaternary ammonium silicone compounds (“SiQAC”) as antimicrobial agents, either in solvent or in aqueous and stable solutions.
When the ammonium salts react with certain organosilanes, they form an integrated system. Once this system is applied to any surface, it forms an invisible (one molecule deep) and durable (due to ion exchange and rapid polymerisation) antimicrobial protection.
Water-Based
Making these compounds using a water-based system provides a host of benefits:
- They are non-flammable and require no solvents for dilution.
- They require no special handling,
- They are able to disperse uniformly on almost any surface.
- They are simple and economical to use because of their extended shelf-life.
Environment Friendly
Because this new generation Antimicrobial coating is water-based, it contains none of the agents harmful to the environment, such as VOC, Heavy metals, Formaldehyde Treatment, Phenol Groups, or odour causing agents that can lead to allergies or asthma.
A REVOLUTIONARY WATER-BASED ANTIMICROBIAL COATING.
Our product can be applied to almost any surface, which enables an entirely new level of protection in your facility.
The ingredients have been tested and found to be effective against a wide range of viruses and bacteria, creating an inhospitable surface for these dangerous microorganisms, and keeping your facility safer for everyone.
Our formula is a next generation water-based, long-term antimicrobial coating designed to inhibit the growth of microorganisms for a recommended period up to 90 days after application.
Once the coating has dried, it forms an invisible layer of “nanospikes” that penetrate and destroy cell membranes. Due to these “nanospikes”, our product’s process of elimination is mechanical instead of chemical in comparison with other long-term solutions such as silver ion and copper.
This is extremely effective in both high and low traffic areas.
The coating can be applied to and bonds with almost any surface – porous or non-porous, metal, leather, fabric etc.
The active ingredient in the coating is
ECHA (European Chemicals Agency) registered and compliant.
