Zero VOC antimicrobial coatings that combine durability with instantaneous curing through photopolymerization technology

 

Medical facilities produce some of the most demanding challenges for flooring coatings. The coatings are required to meet strict hygienic requirements while providing ease of maintenance. They should be low to zero VOC to ensure the air quality of the facility. They should be durable and chemical resistant yet provide fast return-to-service.

Eco Green Finishes were developed by UVGC over a two decade research, development and testing period. At UVGC there is no compromise. Our coating systems had to answer all the needs of medical facilities.

To aid medical facilities in meeting strict hygienic requirements UVGC incorporated an antimicrobial that imparts bacteriostatic, fungistatic, and algistatic properties to our coatings.

Healthcare and hospitals can not afford costly downtime of conventional finish systems. Our advanced technology instantaneously cures our finishes through photo polymerization allowing immediate return to service.

Air quality is a critical concern of medical facility. VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) are gases emitted from certain solids or liquids. These gases can have adverse health effects. The United States has implemented standards to limit the level of VOC’s. The intent is to reduce the quantity of indoor air contaminants that are odorous, irritating and/or harmful to the comfort and well-being of occupants.

In the United States California has adopted the strictest VOC standards specifying a VOC level of 275 g/Liter or less. Our finishes are formulated to release zero VOC’s creating the highest level of indoor air quality possible.

To be truly green a coating needs to be sustainable as well as well as meet VOC standards. At UVGC we provide the most durable green coatings in the industry.

The combination of our higher cross linking density through photo polymerization and the addition our proprietary wear guard additive create flooring solution of unmatched durability.

Our High-performance coating systems allow medical facilities the ability to reduce costs by significantly reducing recoating and maintenance cost. UVGC flooring coatings are the solution to lessen the cost and burden of cleaning and maintenance.

Our photo polymerization process creates higher cross linking density providing outstanding durability and resistance to chemicals such as Betadine®, a serious concern in healthcare environments. With new regulations dictating acceptable types and strengths of disinfecting cleaners have challenged the level of chemical resistance inherent in conventional types of commercial coatings. UVGC coating systems provide an unsurpassed level of chemical resistance.
