Are you worried about the rise of flu cases this winter?
In the winter months, viruses and illnesses tend to spread more rapidly. That’s why it’s crucial that your environment isn’t just visibly clean but also proven to be hygienic. It significantly reduces the transmission of viruses and bacteria among building users, leading to a healthier environment, lower sickness levels, and improved attendance rates.
What are the benefits of using protective coatings?
Kills viruses and bacteria
Protective coatings can help prevent the spread of infectious diseases. By eliminating or reducing pathogens on surfaces, it minimises the risk of transmission through contact with contaminated objects.
Reduces sickness levels
Protective coatings can help reduce the frequency of illnesses and absenteeism in workplaces and educational establishments by minimising the presence of pathogens in the environment. This, in turn, can enhance productivity and academic outcomes.
Improves indoor air quality
Some pathogens can become airborne and circulate in indoor spaces, leading to respiratory issues and allergies. Protective coatings can help improve indoor air quality and create a healthier environment by sanitising surfaces and removing contaminants.
Peace of mind
Knowing that protective coatings have protected your space, you can provide occupants, employees, or visitors peace of mind. This helps to build confidence that proactive measures have been taken to create a clean, hygienic and safe environment for building users to thrive in.
How to measure the effectiveness of protective coatings
Regular testing before and after cleaning in order to measure the amount of bacteria on the surface of a particular area. Doing this allows you to consider the most important aspects to focus on for your cleaning strategy.

By using protective coatings, you will see a decrease in absence rates. Protective coatings create a layer of tiny spikes, which bursts bacteria and viruses as soon as they come into contact with it. Your building users can enter a clean, hygienic and safe environment with less chance of catching a bug, resulting in learning and work hours not being lost.
