Modern air purification
Photocatalytic Coatings are coatings that break down particulate matter, among other things, under the influence of (artificial) light. In addition, these coatings have a so-called self-cleaning and hygienic effect. Contaminated air can therefore be easily and effectively purified by means of these coatings.
Our air-purifying coatings are based on titanium dioxide (TiO2), among other things. It is remarkable that serious studies show that a surface of ± 1,000 m² of facade with a photocatalytic coating has a comparable air-purifying effect as 70 large deciduous trees. As a result, these special coatings provide added value for both the economy and the environment.
The specific technology used is completely safe (REACH) and environmentally friendly. Moreover, our coatings are non-hazardous and food-safe.
Air quality often lousy
Indoor and outdoor air quality is a topic of conversation almost every day. Not surprising, because people seem to be becoming increasingly aware of the influence of poor air quality on their health.
Air-purifying coatings are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. No more bad smells in the kitchen or toilet, for example, and no more hassle with ventilation. You are probably familiar with the Ambi Puur advertisement and the long-lasting effect it is said to have. Once applied, a coating lasts for years and functions under daylight.
Effective against algae and pollution
This special coating is therefore also very suitable for use around the house. How about, for example, roof tiles that you often have cleaned because they have turned green again? Roof tiles with our coating remain clean for years and require little additional maintenance. How convenient is that.
There are already manufacturers using such a coating. We can possibly put you in touch with them.
Research University of Twente
In 2017 and 2018, in collaboration with the Photocatalytic Synthesis (PCS) Group of the University of Twente led by Prof. Guido Mul conducted research into the air-purifying effect of photocatalytic coatings. It has been investigated whether ceiling panels treated with such a coating can significantly purify an interior space from pollutants such as formaldehyde.
Because the so-called Sick Building Syndrome is a persistent phenomenon in today's (office) working environment. It has therefore been investigated whether our coatings can make a significant contribution to combating this problem.
The results of this research confirm the significant effect of our photoactive coating. Contact us for more information. Interesting for architects , contractors , housing corporations and homeowners, among others!
