    Description

    Dual-action paint that doesn't compromise on finish duality!

    Bacteria are living organisms with soft protective membranes which enable the living cores to thrive, multiply and colonise on surfaces outside of a body. Once inside us, their membranes protect them from our antibodies long enough to infect our lungs.

    Although most Viruses rely on a living "host" to reproduce and survive, Coronaviruses, Influenza and other "envelope" viruses have a "shell" that protects their living cores enough to both survive outside of a body and shield them from our antibodies once inside us. Unless damaged, their spikes can penetrate.

    Bacteria and Shell Viruses can lurk on surfaces waiting to be picked up by hand contact and breathed in when we bring our hands near our faces.

    Fortunately, their membranes, spikes and shells are vulnerable to direct contact from surfaces of walls they contaminated if a wall has enhanced heat reflection created most effectively by solid silver particles. The effect is enhanced if the silver is encased in glass as nano-particles distributed through the paint film when mixed for permanent protection. This is unaffected by the leaching processes which can diminish further the limited effect of silver nitrate and chlorine biocides.

    Features & Benefits




    How It Works


    Vira-Protect Anti-Viral and Anti-Bacterial polyurethane hardened acrylic “cross-links” during the drying process to form a smoother, harder, more cleanable surface than typical wall paints and help eliminate the microscopic pockets that host bacteria which prevent effective cleaning.

    A unique concentrated mix of safe, biocidal metal encapsulated nano-particles attacks viruses and bacteria that settle on surfaces, damaging their protective “envelope” (shell) preventing them causing infection and resulting in the death of their live cores.
