By combining  Antimicrobial coating with regular cleaning and disinfecting, a premise can be sure it is implementing the highest standard of surface defence against harmful microbes.

Our coating protects your surfaces from a range of viruses, bacterias, mold, algaes and odors. Also, the coating acts as a sacrificial layer of protection for the surface itself, protecting against micro-scratches and general wear and tear.

We strongly recommend applying our Antimicrobial before your business reopens. This will provide the applicator with a clean and empty space for application. Applying the coating before people potentially bring in contamination is a sensible action plan.

No, the technology that our coating uses is a mechanical kill, creating a very thin layer of “nano-spikes” that penetrate the virus/bacteria that comes in contact with the coating, destroying the cell.

Yes, it is effective against this type of virus as the coating terminates by puncturing the cell wall and rendering the virus unable to infect. Studies have been shown to prove this and are available to view on request.

No, once our Antimicrobial coating has bonded to the surface it creates a durable layer of protection which provides an inhospitable environment for pathogens, by mechanical means, and the coating does not leach any chemicals into the environment.

Yes, there are several tests done on the active ingredients by independent laboratories. We can provide these on request.

The major difference is this product does not evaporate after being applied, the coating bonds to the surface it has been applied to for 90 days.

Our antimicrobial coating will be fully functional for 90 days.

Our coating will not be removed by normal cleaning or disinfectants, it can only be removed with abrasion

Our antimicrobial coating is a universal coating, meaning it is suited for all kinds of industries and environments, including: indoor and outdoor environments

The only other technology that is currently available for long term surface protection are coatings that are terminating the pathogens by infecting the microorganism with a chemical agent such as silver, copper or zinc. Our supplier has chosen to utilize its technology as it is highly effective without leaching chemicals into the environment once the coating has cured.

No, this is an additional level of protection that does not only eliminate harmful microorganisms on application but continues to eliminate them all day every day

After a few minutes the coating will be dry to the touch, however, we recommend you allow it 2 hours for the coating to completely bond to the surface it has been applied to.

Yes, we have ensured to be registered in the majority of the European countries and are following the guidelines set out by ECHA (European Chemicals Agency).

Once our antimicrobial coating has been applied to the premise, the premise is eligible to register with IRSP, an independent surface protection registry. Your premise will be listed on the registry as meeting the benchmark for surface protection. You can display this on your premise with a variety of stickers and a banner/link will be provided to you for posting on your website. This is an additional service and is not compulsory

Care2help uses a cold fogger to apply the coating to ensure all surfaces have an even/complete layer of protection.

Our coating will adhere to a wide variety of surfaces including metals, plastics, ceramic, carpet, timber, and upholstery. Our antimicrobial is colourless and odourless by nature, therefore it does not stain fabric materials.

No, our antimicrobial coating provides its users with an invisible shield of protection that is undetectable to the naked eye
