Personal safety in the care industry is set to be transformed with the introduction of the world’s first germ-killing wallpaper which eliminates 99.9% of bacteria* and viruses within an hour. A game-changer for high-traffic areas such as hallways, waiting rooms and doctor’s practices. the durable and self-disinfecting wallpaper sits under Grandeco’s new Pure & Protect® product area and creates beautiful room aesthetics whilst also providing peace of mind. This product is completely safe and harmless to touch.
Safe & people friendly
The wallpaper uses a hospital-quality disinfectant coating, named Nobacoat®, which is mechanically charged. This means as soon as air moves into the room due to movement (an open window or ventilation), the wallpaper will attract and pierce 99.9% of viruses, bacteria, fungi and even mould – rendering them harmless, without the use of any harsh chemicals.
This mechanical effect is due to the electrostatic force: the harmful air particles are negatively charged, and the wallpaper is positively charged. Both opposites attract each other and then the coating eliminates the culprits by piercing the cell wall.
Extra scrubbable, extra washable
Featuring a heavy-duty coating, this wallpaper can withstand regular wiping, scrubbing and is resilient to wear and tear, ideal for areas that are used intensively.
Substantiated technology, by the University of Liege
The transparent and self-disinfecting Nobacoat® was developed and tested in collaboration with the Belgian Sichem and the University of Liège. Rapid aging tests have shown that Nobacoat® is effective for more than twelve years. Furthermore, it was also shown that a healthier living space is guaranteed from one wall, and that the technology is effective against the world’s most dangerous viruses, including Covid-19. The coating has already been used in various industries, such as automotive, construction and healthcare.
Soothing colours & stripes
Meticulously applied by Grandeco’s in-house wallpaper experts, the coating is offered in an impressive selection of contemporary and striking colours from the popular Atmosphere collection. Whether you prefer plain colours to bold stripes, each design promises to transform an ordinary wall into a hygienic space full of personality.
