NUREL offers polyamides and biopolymers with 99% antiviral efficacy.
The New England Journal of Medicine has published a study evaluating the stability of SARS-CoV-2 on different surfaces, determining a prevalence of up to 72h on surfaces such as plastic.
Public use items such as door handles, railings, switches, supermarket baskets and shopping carts, community use trays and tableware, public seats and also many types of packaging; nowadays require materials with viricidal capacity against coronaviruses. NUREL, after months of research and development, has found the solution for all these types of applications.
VI_SAFE is NUREL’s new antiviral technology that is applicable to all types of polymers and biopolymers for extrusion and injection moulding.
VI_SAFE deactivates the virus and avoids possible transmission by contact with infected surfaces. Surfaces and packaging manufactured with VI_SAFE have an intrinsic antiviral activity and performs a high durability.
VI_SAFE has been tested under the ISO 21702 by independent labs achieving a 99% infectivity reduction.
From now on, sanitary bags and containers, shopping trolleys, seats in public transport or switches, will be safer thanks to VI_SAFE.
