Antibacterial protection and anti-mould resistance
Advanced Antibacterial Protection
Verus Paint features a unique antibacterial additive that has gained approval from leading regulatory authorities, including the Health & Safety Executive (HSE), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This additive has been scientifically proven to be effective against ALL known bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant strains. These bacteria include harmful pathogens responsible for illnesses such as gastroenteritis, meningitis, MRSA, and salmonella, making it ideal for creating a cleaner, healthier home.
Effective Anti-Mould Paint
Mould and mildew thrive in warm, humid, and poorly ventilated areas and can quickly spread by releasing spores into the air. These spores are a common cause of respiratory issues and allergic reactions. Verus Paint’s antibacterial properties act as a protective barrier, actively suppressing the growth of mould and mildew on surfaces.
Why Verus Paint Stands Out:
Not All Antibacterial Coatings Are Equal
Many antibacterial paints rely on lesser silver nanoparticle technology, which provides temporary protection but gradually wears off as the nanoparticles migrate out of the paint. This leaves the painted surface vulnerable over time. In contrast, Verus Paint’s antibacterial additive is directly within the paint structure. This ensures:
Long-lasting protection: The antimicrobial properties remain effective for the entire lifespan of the paint.
Durability: Surfaces can be wiped clean repeatedly without reducing the paint’s ability to kill bacteria and prevent mould growth.
By choosing Verus Paint, you’re investing in a paint that ensures clean, healthy spaces, offering superior performance in antibacterial and anti-mould protection.
