FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

An antimicrobial is a substance that inhibits or stops the growth of all micro-organisms or destroys them. ‘Nano Green Protection Shield’ provides long lasting anti-microbial protection for up to 90 days following the initial application.

An antimicrobial coating is a durable, long-lasting surface treatment that chemically bonds to any surface to which it has been applied. The coating provides that surface with semi-permanent disinfection properties that can prevail for weeks. This surface destroys all types of microorganisms that come in to contact with it, including yeasts, fungi, protozoans, bacteria and viruses.

Furthermore, because of the way the non-leaching antimicrobial coating works, it is not possible for microorganisms to build up any resistance to it, so it is a highly effective way (if maintained regularly) to secure ongoing protection against the risk of cross contamination, infection and disease.

The ‘Nano Green Protection Shield’ is an anti-microbial. In a time where ‘clean’ has been redefined, its intended use is not to replace disinfectants nor normal cleaning protocols but to supplement the process. The application of our Nano Green Protection Shield is to add a layer of 24/7 surface protection to inhibit viral contamination and render coated surfaces hostile for the survival of germs.

Because other methods of disinfection only work on a ‘one off’ basis. ‘Nano Green’s’ layer of anti-microbial protection eliminates the risk of infection from cross-contamination for up to 90 days.

No! In fact, regular routine cleaning will only serve to enhance and optimize the efficiency of the treatment ensuring that the ongoing disinfection potential remains at the maximum level for up to 90 days.

‘Nano Green Protection Shield’ should be applied to clean, dry surfaces for optimal effectiveness.

No, not at all! Because the treatment destroys pathogens through physical means not by chemical poisoning, so there is NO possibility of any organism building up immunity.

The ‘Nano Green Protection Shield’ destroys all pathogenic organisms (bacteria, viruses, molds, yeasts and fungi with a 99.99% disinfection effectiveness. It continuously eliminates such pathogenic organisms immediately on contact for up to 90 days.

There are two main discriminating characteristics that set the ‘Nano Green Anti-Microbial Protection Shield” apart and in a league of its own. First, it is NOT a disinfectant based on highly corrosive or toxic chemical activity with a very short-term period of efficiency. The ‘Nano Green Protection Shield’ destroys pathogenic micro-organisms on contact using only a physical method of destruction.

Second, traditional disinfectant solutions are only effective for a very short period of time and once dry, their kill rate diminishes to zero very quickly. Because the ‘Nano Green Anti-Microbial Protection Shield’ works in a completely different way by creating a very stable surface coating that destroys pathogenic organisms through physical contact rather than chemical poisoning.

These characteristics also mean that it can remain effective 24 hours a day 7 days a week for up to 90 days.

There are two reasons for complete reassurance and confidence in the safety of our product.

First, the ‘Nano Green Protection Shield’ is not based on toxic or corrosive materials. It is a totally safe surface treatment that provides a purely physical means, not a chemical means of microbial destruction.

Secondly, the ’Nano Green Anti-Microbial Shield’ is fully certified to be 100% safe for use in all areas where it is applied.

Because of its physical rather than chemical nature, ‘Nano Green Protection Shield’ will continuously provide a highly effective level of disinfection by destroying 99.99% of micro-organisms immediately on contact and up to 90 days after the application.

This assumption is correct. The ‘Nano Green Protection Shield’ is a chemically bonded surface coating which means that once applied, it bonds chemically, at the molecular level with the surface to which it has been applied. Therefore, the only way to remove the coating is through physical abrasion such as scrubbing the surface repeatedly and vigorously with coarse pads, wire wool, abrasive based metal polishes and creams.

No! In fact, regular cleaning with soap and water enhances the microbial killing power and longevity of the coating. As it destroys microbes immediately on physical contact, if the surface is left uncleaned for prolonged periods the dead microorganisms begin to clog and degrade the efficacy of the surface. Therefore, regular cleaning with soap and water is good and wiping and rinsing is better than scrubbing.

As above, the Nano Green protection shield can only be removed from regular or intense abrasion. Contact with detergents and sanitizers will only have a positive effect on the antimicrobial properties of the shield, for up to 90 days.

All antimicrobials coating are not created equal. It’s important to understand the basic chemical, physical, and biological properties of an antimicrobial so the best choice can be made. Because of its unique mode of action and inability to migrate from a treated surface, our technology is the obvious choice to minimize environmental contamination and the development of resistant organisms. Our products are safe for the environment, humans, and pets. They are non-dissipating, non-leaching, non-migrating from the applied substrate and cannot be absorbed by micro-organisms or by humans.
