our Antimicrobial.
A revolutionary water-based antimicrobial coating.
This 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 pathogens, creating an inhospitable surface for these 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 extended periods 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.
This is extremely effective in both high and low traffic areas. The active ingredient in the coating is compliant with the ECHA (European Chemicals Agency). The coating can be applied to and bonds with almost any surface – metal, plastics, ceramic, glass, tile, etc. For maximum efficiency, it is recommended that Nordic Chem be applied by a professionally trained installer.
Water-based formula
This new generation of antimicrobial coatings is water-based.
The coatings contain no VOC, heavy metals, formaldehyde treatment,
phenol groups, or odor causing agents that can lead to allergies or asthma.
Our technology.
Based on the use of quaternary ammonium silicone compounds (“SiQAC”)
Our coating’s technology is based on the use of quaternary ammonium silicone compounds (“SiQAC”) as antimicrobial agents, either in solvent or in aqueous and stable solutions.
Making these compounds using a water-based system provides a host of benefits. They are non-flammable and require no solvents for dilution. They are uniformly dispersible on almost any surface, are simple and economical to use because of their extended shelf-life.
When the ammonium salts react with certain organosilanes, they form an integrated system. Once this system is applied to a substrate, it forms an invisible (one molecule deep) and durable (through ion exchange and rapid polymerization) antimicrobial protection.
