The pandemic continues to disturb everyday lives worldwide. In India, there is a surge in confirmed cases due to the second wave of the virus. Hence, the graph is still on an upward trajectory. As of April 2021, the virus had infected more than 3 lac people in India, resulting in high casualties. The transmission of this deadly virus occurs both ways - through direct contact with the infected people and indirect contact with the contaminated surfaces. Studies indicate that the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 remains active for several hours to days on surfaces and in aerosols. However, the survival of the virus depends on various factors like the surface type, temperature conditions, viral strain, and more. Owing to this condition, finding a solution to prevent the virus's survival on any surface is crucial. Scientists worldwide are working to find a solution that would prevent the spread of coronavirus through surfaces. Researchers are collaborating with various paint, chemical and construction industries to develop antiviral, antibacterial, antimicrobial coating solutions that would neutralise any microbe present on the surface, which is invisible to our naked eyes. To keep a check on these pathogens and microbes, adopting self-regulatory measures are the need of the hour! Aludecor has always kept in mind the health and safety of society at large and have crafted India's first Antibacterial/bactericidal ACP, AG+. These specially-curated Antimicrobial ACP sheets can be considered an effective solution in keeping the indoors bacteria/virus-free. Utility of an Antimicrobial Surface Coating on ACPs The Antimicrobial surface coatings (on Aluminium composite panels) are lauded to be effective against any virus and bacteria. When applied on walls, pillars, modular cabinets, etc., these coatings prevent microbial adhesion following the development of biofilm, thereby reducing the risk of environmental infections in the interiors. One of the leading research industries in Israel is developing anti-coronavirus surface coatings composed of nanoparticles of safe metal ions and polymers, such as copper, that can illuminate the coronavirus particles that stick on it. Following a similar kind of technology, Aludecor uses Silver ions in the specially treated paint coating of its AG+ ACPs that works against the bacterial or viral cell by blocking those substances that help these microbial cells to sustain. Future of Antimicrobial and Antibacterial/AntiViral Coatings The demand for Antimicrobial coatings has risen due to the pandemic. Especially the temporary and permanent healthcare facilities are preferring the usage of antibacterial or antiviral coatings in various construction elements/materials to eliminate the deadly microbes from the surfaces. Even after the pandemic is over, the demand for these specially treated coatings will never subside, instead rise to meet the needs of the new normal - safe environment and techniques to restrain any microbial outbreak! Aludecor AG+ Antibacterial ACP sheets can work magic during these unprecedented times. This Antimicrobial ACPs will provide you and your family with effective and maximum protection against bacteria and viruses year after year. What you have to do is get Aludecor AG+ ACPs installed in your spaces and creating a safety shield for your near and dear ones. To learn about Aludecor AG+ Antibacterial ACPs in details, click Here.
