BactiBlock treated paints & plastics against SARS-CoV-2

New succesful results against SARS-CoV-2 have been recently obtained in paints & plastic applications thanks to the use of BactiBlock. Tests performed according to ISO 21702 standard show a high performance in different kinds of surfaces confirming previous results related to BactiBlock additives at a cost-effective dosage.

Water-based plastic decorative paint + 1% BactiBlock: 99.68% reduction.
LDPE based formulation + 3% BactiBlock: 97.85% reduction.

Both results are related to Vaccinia Virus. Vaccinia Virus is an enveloped virus and these results cover all enveloped viruses, including all Coronaviruses (e.g. SARS-CoV-2 originating COVID-19 disease).

Ensuring an efficient protection in our everyday life has become a real challenge all over the world. Treating materials during its manufacturing process with BactiBlock contributes to the reduction of pathogens potentially leading to human or animals infections.
