POLYAMIDES AND BIOPOLYMERS WITH RESULTS EXCEEDING 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.
NUREL, after months of research and development, has come up with a solution to reduce surface viruses quickly and safely.
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.

Applications of antiviral films made with PA6
In different activities of our daily life, we are in contact with surfaces and objects, for example in public transport, schools and hospitals, at work, etc.
Thanks to NUREL’s VI_SAFE solution, all these surfaces can be more hygienic, providing greater protection against bacterial contamination.
