The current biostatic coating technology is an advanced antimicrobial chemical formulation. It is water stabilized allowing for safe residential and commercial use. Biostatic coatings are proven to be non-toxic, environmentally safe, and pose no known exposure hazards. This coating inhibits damage and deterioration caused by bacteria, fungi, and algae growth. It is EPA registered for use on a wide range of building materials including wood, concrete, brick, and plastic. What’s more, biostatic coatings do not dissipate nor do they volatilize like disinfectants. The biostatic molecule forms a permanent bond to surfaces providing residual antimicrobial protection.
Biostatic coating forms a protective surface layer by forming what resembles a series of needles bonded to a surface that destroys the cellular membrane of microorganisms before they can cause harm – they pop the cell membranes as if they were balloons landing on a bed of sharp needles. In effect, “cellular death is achieved without the use of toxic or volatile chemicals”
