What

about “Hygiene”? Yes, Advanced Paint Technology

Helps!

Indoor Environment quality: Hygiene

Indoor Environment quality: Hygiene

88% of the mothers admitted that they tend to overlook that wall is a medium for transmit of viruses & bacteria.

80% agreed that their children touches the wall during playtime; or

79% says that their kids often uses / touches the wall in their daily activities

86% of the interviewed mothers stated that they do not clean the wall as often as the floor.

Hygiene

Advancement in Paint

Technology

Painting our walls with “Anti-Viral Paint” to reduce contact with viruses and bacteria in our daily life!

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Advancement in Paint

Technology

One of the world's oldest natural

antimicrobials.

Safe & Environment friendly.

Microbes or Viruses are less likely to

develop resistance to silver ions.

Effective in controlling and eradicating a

number of micro-organisms and viruses

such as H1N1, HFMD, E.Coli, MRSA,

Staphylococcus aureaus etc.

Dissociated silver ion

Silver ion associated

with functional

polymer

Silver Ion

After painting “VirusGuard”

① Drying

② Formation of paint film

③ Appearance of silver ions

on the surface


Silver ion associated

with functional

polymer

From Silver Ions To “Virusguard” Our Innovation

Paint

Paint Film Wall


Silver ion associated with

functional polymer

Virus

Three prong mechanism of silver

ions to destroy micro-organism

and viruses:

① Attachment & then destroy the

cell membrane

② Stop reproduction

③ Inhibit Metabolism

Silver Ion Technology & Mechanism

Attach and then destroy the cell membrane (bacteria, fungi,

virus)

Attachment


Stop its reproduction capability by: de-nature the protein DNA/RNA

(bacteria, fungi, virus)


Inhibits Metabolism: Inhibits enzyme reactions that help turn sugar into

energy thus blocking metabolic process and functions (bacteria, fungi)


Type of Virus % Reduction After 24 hours Exposure

Time

HFMD ( Coxackie virus A16) > 90%

Influenza A ( H1N1 Virus) > 90%

Anti-Virus efficacy test for coating using Silver ion technology was performed in an

independent US lab.

The result demonstrated a (>90%) reduction of HFMD virus and Influenza A ( H1N1)

Virus.

Independent Lab Test: Anti Virus Efficacy of “VIRUSGUARD”

What about

“sensory” &

“Comfort”?

Yes, Advanced Paint Technology

Helps!


Sensory

Indoor Environment Quality:

Indoor Temperature

1. Solar radiation absorbed by buildings;

2. Indoor temperature increases: decreases comfort and increases air-conditioning energy consumption.

Thermal Comfort

Technological Solution for

Indoor Temperature

… reflecting “heat”

only;

Without causing

glare to human

eyes! .

Thermal Comfort

Technological Solution

for Indoor Temperature

“Colourful” Heat Reflective Paint

In the past, only white exterior paint could reduce heat build up by

reflecting heat and infra-red light.

Now, homes and buildings can stay cool indoor when it is scorching hot

outside, using very colorful “SolaReflect” exterior wall paints.

Thermal Comfort

I can speak for two days on

“How Paint Technology

Evolve and Contribute to

the Indoor Environment

Quality”

“…. I have only 5

more minutes to

speak”
