Self-Cleaning Coating for Exteriors Let sunlight and rain keep surfaces clean — and the air cleaner. What it is A transparent, water-based TiO₂ photocatalytic coating for exterior surfaces — solar panels, glass, facades, masonry, and metal. It combines four mechanisms in one ultra-thin film: an ultra-hydrophilic surface, light-activated photocatalysis, an anti-static dust-shedding structure, and active air purification. Together they keep surfaces clean with minimal maintenance — and turn them into passive air purifiers. How it works - Ultra-hydrophilic surface. Water spreads into an even sheet instead of beads, so rainfall rinses dust and grime away naturally — no streaking, far less chemical cleaning. - Photocatalytic breakdown. Under light, the surface oxidises organic contaminants, oily residues, and pollution into trace carbon dioxide and water. - Anti-static dust resistance. A fine micro-porous structure reduces the electrostatic and molecular forces that make superfine dust cling, so less soiling builds up in the first place. - Active air purification. The same reaction breaks down airborne pollutants — NOx, TVOC, and smog — and helps lower PM2.5 around the treated surface. Markets & uses Solar: keeps panels free of dust and soiling, maintaining light absorption and energy yield while cutting cleaning downtime and water use. Buildings & facades: glass, stone, and metal stay cleaner for longer, preserving appearance and lowering maintenance — while the facade passively helps clean the surrounding air. Glass & high-rise: hard-to-reach glazing that rain keeps clear. Key benefits - Higher, more consistent solar output through cleaner panels - Dramatically lower facade, glass, and panel cleaning cost, labour, and water - Breaks down dirt, oil, pollution, and organic growth — no harsh chemicals - Purifies surrounding air (NOx, TVOC, PM2.5) — surfaces that clean the air - Anti-static, anti-soiling, anti-mould; protects against UV and staining - Air-purification performance independently tested by SGS to ISO 22197-1:2016 Air-purification illustration: independent analysis equates one square metre of coated surface to the NOx-cleansing power of several square metres of tree foliage — letting vertical building surfaces help clean city air.

Light-Activated Antimicrobial Coating A surface that keeps sanitizing itself, 24 hours a day. CFIA — Food-Facility Coating What it is A transparent, water-based coating built on titanium dioxide (TiO₂) — a natural mineral used safely for decades. Sprayed onto walls, ceilings, and high-touch surfaces, it forms a permanent thin film with near-zero VOC that keeps working between cleanings: anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-mould, around the clock. How it works The coating is a photocatalyst — activated by light (UV, natural, or fluorescent). Light excites the TiO₂ surface to produce a strong oxidative effect that decomposes bacteria, viruses, mould, odours, and airborne pollutants on contact, leaving only trace carbon dioxide and water. Ordinary disinfection protects for minutes; a coated surface stays self-sanitizing for years, as long as light is present. Key benefits - Continuous 24/7 decontamination of surfaces and indoor air - Accepted by the CFIA as a construction material for food facilities (walls & ceilings) - Tested to EN 14476 (virucidal, incl. SARS-CoV-2) and ASTM E1053 (99.9% vs human coronavirus-229E) - Biocompatible — non-cytotoxic (ISO 10993-5) and not a skin sensitiser (OECD 442A / ISO 10993-10) - Transparent, water-based, near-zero VOC — safe for people and animals Applications Hospitals Hotels Schools Food Processing Washrooms
