Antimicrobial ACP Sheet

Besides being a health emergency worldwide, COVID-19 has varied psychological and socioeconomic repercussions. The research and media reports related to the pandemic have revealed a rise in extreme fears about contracting the virus. Around 3.23 crore people in India have been infected with Novel Coronavirus to date! Fear is a common psychological outcome during a pandemic. The COVID-19 is a continuously evolving virus outbreak that has peculiar and rare risk factors. Therefore, fear related to Coronavirus might manifest in extreme anxiety related to disease contraction, fatalities and associated socio-occupational stress. COVID-19 has taught us several new terms and words - covidiot, COVID bubble, coronacoaster, coronapocalypse, to name a few. Researchers have now added or coined a new term Coronaphobia - a new emerging disorder or anxiety specific to COVID-19. Understanding Coronaphobia In any pandemic, anxiety, fear and worries have been significant psychological consequences. However, COVID-19 related fears have exceeded the graph. After analysing more than 500 studies, which addressed the panic people experienced during the pandemic, researchers have identified relevant factors causing coronaphobia, contracting virus severe and increased casualties unforeseen reality and unending uncertainties suffered health infrastructure and more These factors are assumed to cause catastrophic issues and social amplification of Coronaphobia and its related risks. Source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7474809/ While experts are working at breakneck speed to understand Coronaphobia, some scientists have proved that the virus is spreading between humans and exposed surfaces and individuals. This discovery has resulted in a generalized dread of door handles, handrails, and other high-contact items, known as Surface Phobia. However, not all materials provide a long-term home for viruses, and architects, designers and related professionals may utilize this information to their advantage, especially when designing environments for more sensitive inhabitants. The experts are looking forward to providing a solution that could eliminate Coronaphobia or Surface phobia from the minds of the individuals/commoners. Antimicrobial coatings frequently kill viruses on material surfaces, including doorknobs, counters, and wall claddings. Such coatings have spawned a burgeoning business with a market capitalization in the billions of dollars. While some paint producers have included microbe-killing chemicals in their paint and primer coats, others have developed coatings that use different chemical capabilities. Aludecor's Research on Antimicrobial Coatings Since the onset of the pandemic, Aludecor thought of developing a product that would eliminate the risk of touching surfaces and getting infected. Aludecor turned to its Research & Development team to develop a coating solution to address the primary customer worry during these times. The R&D team took up the challenge, worked tirelessly, and finally developed Vi-SECURE, a revolutionary antimicrobial solution in this hour of need! The best part is, an ICMR-approved laboratory (The National Forensic Sciences University) under the Ministry of Home Affairs, Govt. of India duly tested and approved the product. Aludecor has produced a one-of-a-kind product line that is sure to provide you with the peace of mind you desire. Even though Aludecor had mastered antibacterial technology years ago, the inclusion of anti-virus technology has significantly enhanced the product beyond comparison. Let's discuss what Vi-Secure is and its benefits. What is Aludecor Vi-SECURE? Vi-Secure, a breakthrough innovation by Aludecor, comes with anti-COVID, antimicrobial technology (coating) that is the need of the hour! It not only inhibits the virus or bacteria from replicating, but it also kills them by 99.99%. The National Forensic Sciences University, an Institution of National Importance, under the Ministry of Home Affairs, Govt. of India, has tested it under the Efficacy Testing of Antiviral Coating (on Nonporous Surface) Against SARS COV-2 Virus as per ISO 21702:2019 (Modified) Test. The test result declares that it not only stops the replication of viruses but eliminates it by 99.99%. Vi-SECURE destroys 99.99% of viruses and harmful bacteria with its advanced Silver Ion technology or silver nano-coating. When our Vi-SECURE ACP Sheets contact with viruses or harmful bacteria, their highly advanced coating stops them from replicating on the surface and ruptures and kills them. Key Benefits: Non-Toxic: The ACP Panels are manufactured with non-toxic coating materials that make them entirely safe for human touch and use. Tested by Reliable ICMR-approved Laboratory: Aludecor COVID-19 safe products were duly tested by the Home Ministry, Govt. of India at one of the most renowned testing laboratories. Low need for sanitization: The added antiviral properties save the trouble of sanitizing the claddings ever so frequently. Valid for a lifetime: This technology is affected throughout the lifetime of the ACP Sheets since the technology is embedded in the coating matrix unless the surface itself is physically or chemically harmed. Advanced coating properties: The strength of the antiviral properties does not reduce when interacting with heat. The advanced coating technology is non-reactive to normal heat, humidity, moisture or sunlight. Tough on microbes, gentle on humans: The surfaces treated with this technology will kill more than 99.9% of microbes, yet is safe to touch & use, being made with non-hazardous, non-toxic raw materials. All-round interior applications:These ACP Sheets are highly effective and can be used as a finish for almost all types of interior applications. Low in maintenance: All you need to do is wipe the surface with a microfiber cloth, and you are good to go. Resistant to Fire: The ACP Sheets are resistant to fire and are available in FireWall - Class 0, Class B & Class A2 grades. Areas of Aludecor Vi-SECURE Application: Hospitals & healthcare facilities Corporate Lifts Buildings Malls (mall columns) Restaurants Salons Testing Facilities ATMs Reception Desks Food Processing Units All-round Home Interiors (Kitchen, Kid's room, Living Space, etc.) All-round Office Interiors Gymnasiums Supermarkets and more We at Aludecor are committed to becoming one of India's most creative and sustainable construction solutions businesses.
