Viratect
About Viratect: We provide combined air purification and clear surface protection that actively fights against bacteria, viruses and fungi. Our air purification and clear coat solutions gives you longer staying power against viruses by actively killing any microbes, providing ongoing disinfection of the air and of treated surfaces. The UV-C light and ozone air purification system combined with the clear coat surface solution is now proven effective against the pathogen Sars-Cov-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Viratect’s UV-C light and ozone destroys and neutralises microbes in the air and the clear surface protection has active ingredients that penetrate the outer membrane of microbes that come into contact with it, terminating their viability, and thereby reducing microbes by 99.9%. Viratect is part of The Krier Group. How it works: Air purification via (our range of JIMCO products includes the MAC500) produce UV-C light and ozone which respectively deconstructs and destroys viruses in the air. The surface treatment is an invisible (clear like varnish) coating that can be applied on any hard or textile surface. Once applied, it hardens to create a clear, undetectable layer of protection. It can be applied through spraying or wiping. It protects not only against viruses, but bacteria too. It does not replace periodic cleaning or scrubbing, it is used as an additional tool to continuously protect. Simply put, our treated air and surfaces automatically kills the virus, making it safe for the next person and in so doing creates a” SAFEZONE” solution.
