How to choose anti-virus coating (long-term disinfection) service

Anti-virus coating (Disinfectant Coating),
Its name implies, sprays long-lasting disinfection on the surface of objects to form a coating film to kill bacteria and viruses that come into contact with the coating film. Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 new crown virus epidemic, a large number of disinfection companies have appeared in the market. Disinfection (anti-virus coating) service, but the quality is uneven, each of them claims that their anti-virus coating is the best. How should consumers make a wise choice? In the face of the epidemic, disinfection services are closely related to the health of the public. You should get comprehensive information to make the right choice, and you can go to work, school and rest with peace of mind after the disinfection coating is completed. Therefore, we provide information on disinfection coatings so that schools, homes for the elderly and the disabled, and NGOs can have comprehensive information when choosing disinfection services. Through the following points, even if readers may not have a lot of time to study the background of each company, disinfection coating materials, and even disinfection material verification reports, they can make wise decisions in a simple and powerful way. As the saying goes, "Aren, the edge furnace is the most important furnace." The most important anti-virus coating is of course the coating material itself. In this topic, we will try to allow readers to consider how to choose anti-virus coating services from different perspectives.
Faced with a dazzling array of choices on the market, you can make a judgment based on the following three key dimensions:
真正的可持續消毒方案，應該是「對病毒持續有效，但對人體持續無害」。
1. Sterilization effect
Readers who experienced the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic are likely aware of the importance of disinfection effectiveness. However, only a very small number of antibacterial coating products on the disinfection market have this certification. Some companies, however, have unintentionally or intentionally misled consumers through deceptive advertising tactics.
Example A: Add a non-persistent strong disinfectant (but effective against COVID-19) to a persistent anti-flu coating.
This approach not only fails to enhance antiviral efficacy but may also cause various changes in drug properties, reducing both disinfection effectiveness and durability, let alone killing COVID-19. Furthermore, it may cause allergens in disinfectant materials, affecting the health of service users.
Ensure the coating is tested and proven to effectively kill specific viruses (such as COVID-19, H1N1 influenza, etc.) with an efficacy of 99.99%.
2. Sustainability
Some companies claim that their materials' disinfection efficacy lasts for a year or more, but they cannot provide third-party laboratory proof of this sustainability, which is also intentionally or unintentionally misleading to consumers. Even if some materials have durability and basic antibacterial capabilities (e.g., similar to photocatalytic formaldehyde removal materials), their virus-killing efficacy is still very limited.
Readers need to distinguish between immediate disinfection and continuous disinfection. Disinfection effectiveness is generally offered in options of 90 days, 180 days, or 365 days. The longer the effective period, the more advanced and durable the formula technology, and the higher the price per service. However, in the long run, a solution that only needs to be applied once a year may have a lower total cost than one that needs to be applied once a quarter.
3. Security
Ensuring the safety of the antiviral coating is equally important. If the disinfectant coating is sensitizing or releases toxic substances, such as excessive solvent residue, it could potentially harm service users in the construction environment (including the elderly, young children, and those with chronic illnesses).
This situation is particularly common when people mix disinfectants themselves. If non-professionals mix disinfectants incorrectly or unevenly, the chemical reaction may be incomplete. Unreacted strong irritants (such as high concentrations of oxidants) remain in the coating and will continue to evaporate or release over time, potentially producing volatile organic compounds or carcinogens. Therefore, disinfectant coating materials must undergo rigorous safety certification. Readers should consult with service providers about sensitization testing/inhalation toxicity testing, etc.
Summarize
When choosing an antiviral coating (long-lasting disinfection) service , all three of the above considerations are essential.
Finally, customers choose antiviral coating services based on their trust in disinfection service providers/companies. As an antiviral coating service provider, we should prioritize our customers' health over our company's interests. Furthermore, given Hong Kong's united efforts in fighting the pandemic, we should provide our customers with the most reliable services. Therefore, we insist on using antiviral coating materials that meet the above three criteria and offer services at fair prices, because we believe that everyone (regardless of social class) can receive the highest quality service.
