SOS ANTIMICROBIAL NANO-CERAMIC COATINGS

SOS is understood worldwide as a call for help and we at EarthSafe are answering that call. However, it’s not a sinking ship we are committed to saving but rather a beyond Titanic-sized emergency that is literally about saving life as we once knew. This includes our health, economy and how we interact daily as human beings.

This time the proverbial iceberg is a virus that’s not only invisible but is everywhere and unavoidable, so a new course of action needs to be implemented that can outsmart and outperform this enemy with an entirely unique war plan strategy.

This means knowing the virus’s true weaknesses and vulnerabilities and going past the tired and futile viral war games of fighting poison with more poison. Now more than ever we need to literally think out of the box, which has been a box or bottle filled with poisonous chemical cleaners that our parents and grandparents used. Even though companies have even stronger chemical cleaners today it will not fix the problem, it will only mask the symptoms for a short fix. But exposure to these new and stronger chemicals could actually be toxic to us in the long-term. Here at EarthSafe we wanted to stay true to our name and find a safe and greener approach to ridding this viral pandemic.

Obviously, a viral pandemic is a problem; however, the “root cause” of this problem is that surfaces get infected by pathogens like the SARS-Cov-2 virus and then we touch that contaminated surface and end up infecting ourselves. There are other ways of transmission but preventing contact with contaminated surfaces is what we have mastered. 

We have made this our specialty so much so that we named our antimicrobial products SOS which stands for “Shield Our Surfaces” so that they are “EarthSafe. This is more than a play on words, it is a proven protocol that will outperform any other antimicrobial cleaning process. 

EARTHSAFE ‘S SOS Antimicrobials provide the only real, consistent and continually long-lasting protection against the SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19). Knowing and understanding the vulnerabilities of the Coronavirus gives us the blueprints for a smarter and safer strategy.

Coronavirus has vulnerabilities and how we take advantage of them to deliver our exclusive “proactive prevention” process, makes our “defensive line protection” extremely offensive as well.

The Coronavirus needs to hide and exist in plain sight either on or in any object we might have contact with

It is a numbers game, so the Coronavirus needs to stay present in large numbers in order to survive long enough to make physical contact with us. The obvious solution is to take away the places they hide and attach. This would include the microscopic imperfections invisible to the human eye on all surfaces, (even glass and stainless), like holes, pores, cracks and fissures. Permanently sealing these imperfections is easily achieved by proactively saturating and permanently filling all of the microscopic spaces with our exclusive nano-ceramic antimicrobial coating. This unique preventative process directly addresses and prevents the “root cause” so that any substrate is now shielded by a consistent clear protective barrier that will not allow for hiding places or even allow the microbes to attach to the surface.

The Coronavirus does not have a very strong exoskeleton

Compared to the Norovirus exoskeleton, the Coronavirus is actually “thinned skinned” so it can be pierced, cut, crushed or disintegrated, which is what our “quaternary spikes” do to the virus body. However, the Coronavirus does have tremendous ability to survive much longer than most viruses on untreated surfaces, which is why just using disinfectant cleaners alone will not ever keep up with the continuous resurgence of “replacement” or second wave viruses overrunning the short-term disinfectants’ abilities. This is why we needed to permanently change the battlefield to our advantage first and then use quaternary antimicrobial chemistry artillery to attack exposed viruses 24/7. This preventative sealing process made our antimicrobial quaternary so much more effective that we didn’t need to use stronger toxic poison formulations like other companies solely rely on.

EST is expertly qualified to formulate this new ceramic encapsulated antimicrobial because of their past proven performance history with military, aerospace, industrial and commercial applications as well as preservation and aesthetic enhancement coatings for airlines, restaurants, hotels, and all modes of public transportation. This foundation, built on creating highly specialized ceramic coatings, is what allows EST to bring a truly cutting-edge solution to the war on pathogens.

EST incorporates several EPA Registered antimicrobial and FDA Compliant ingredients of both organic compounds and inorganic elemental sources. Using more than one type of active antimicrobial creates a varied arsenal of uniquely weaponized chemistries to fight pathogens from all sides using many different attack methodologies. The ceramic coating provides a nearly invincible clear armor for our antimicrobial ingredients to be physically and chemically protected so they can fight pathogens all day, every day, for years on treated surfaces.

Our SOS coatings offer truly unique features that not only save annual maintenance costs but also provides real world problem solving that can literally make the difference whether your business or company reopens or not. EST has the only Nano-Ceramic antimicrobial system in the world and here are the reasons why your business absolutely needs our products if you wish to give your customers peace of mind.

  1. Of foremost importance is reducing or eliminating the Coronavirus risk to your business. Even though there are many ways this virus can be transmitted, every attempt should be made to try and lessen the risk of spreading.
  2. We are the only antimicrobial coating that can prove in real time, and on location, that our coating is present using black light tracer additives. More importantly, we are the only antimicrobial coating that can prove our antimicrobial is actually working to reduce or nearly eliminate microbes on the surface. We verify this with a device called a luminometer, which takes a swab sample and counts the quantity of microbes’ present, and is accomplished in 15 seconds.
  3. SOS requires only one application and not continuous repeated product and/or man-hours needed.
  4. SOS offers a fully comprehensive system by offering an easy wipe-on/wipe-off maintenance product that adds additional layers of protection, as well as a daily water-based disinfectant cleaner that is phosphate and acid free.
  5. Unlike any other antimicrobial coating, SOS significantly reduces future contamination on treated surfaces continually 24/7, for many years, or as long as the ceramic coating is present on the surface of the substrate.
  6. As mentioned above, we add an Optical Enhancer (black light additive) to the SOS coating, which allows the user to easily check that the coating(s) are present on surface. This will benefit insurance companies that can now verify that your surfaces are coated and protected.
  7. The Nano-ceramic chemistry in SOS forms a protective covalent bond to metals, painted surfaces, composites, textiles, vinyl, glass, leather, marble, wood, concrete.
  8. The SOS coating specifically protects against abrasion, corrosion, erosion, oxidation, fire, UV degradation, termites, mold and staining on nearly any surface and/or medium.
  9. All SOS formulations are non-toxic with many ratings and compliances from the FDA, EPA, NSF, VOC exempt and ASTM testing.
  10. The multiple antimicrobial ingredients in SOS remain encapsulated in our ceramic coatings and on the protected substrate only where it is applied and will not leach out from our matrix. SOS is food grade safe and can be used directly in kitchens and food prep surfaces, hospitals, public transportation, public areas, and around pets.
  11. It has been proven that the COVID-19 virus can live and be transported to people through A/C and HVAC systems. We can easily protect the ducts and air filter substrate with our antimicrobial coating to ensure that the entire system is protected.
  12. SOS coated surfaces will reduce annual maintenance cost by 50% or more. You will no longer need to polish metals and surfaces will no longer require repainting and wood or concrete will no longer need to be resealed or re-stained. They are also more resistant to igniting.
  13. SOS coatings can be made to replicate any finish including high gloss, semi-gloss, matte or flat, and we offer 6 degrees of non-skid performance as well.

EarthSafe Technologies’ SOS coatings are uniquely long-lasting and effective in ways of performance, aesthetics, and efficiency for protecting your environments, businesses, assets, and belongings from dangerous pathogens.

The heat and moisture to which siding, flooring roofing, decks and other components are exposed promote the growth of molds and mildews. According to the insurance industry, mold-related damage to building products causes well over an estimated $2 billion in claims per year.

Viruses are varied and have a variety of survival rates. There is no hard and fast rule for the time a virus will survive without a host.

Door handles, credit card keypads, cell phones, computers, we touch so many surfaces daily. The simple act of touching things spreads germs. Some viruses can live on surfaces for hours, or weeks. A surface, like a credit card terminal or at the gas pump will be contaminated if an infected person sneezes or coughs on it.

Viruses are varied and have a variety of survival rates. There is no hard and fast rule for the time a virus will survive without a host. Surfaces and environmental temperatures and humidity all matter too. Which surfaces are safe, and how often do we need to disinfect them?

Some virus such as the norovirus that can cause vomiting and diarrhea, might survive for weeks. With its ability to live outside of its host, norovirus can spread both by infected people and via contaminated foods and surfaces.

Covid19 is new and is still being studied. Comparing the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) with SARS-CoV-1, the most closely related human coronavirus and the virus responsible for the 2003 epidemic, a study found that the two viruses have similar viability; however, the novel coronavirus could survive up to three days on stainless steel and plastic surfaces. Survival on other types of surfaces was lower. Like just one day on cardboard and four hours on copper. The novel coronavirus can live in the air for hours and on surfaces up to days.

SOS ANTIMICROBIAL COATINGS is applied to stainless surfaces, countertops, door handles, shopping carts, medical equipment, credit card stations, pens, exercise equipment and fabrics plus just about anything that can spread germs. Months or longer of functional bacteria and virus killing ability are provided by SOS ANTIMICROBIAL COATINGS. Until worn off and abraded by use, a serious germ fighting, and durable clear coating offers a peace of mind in the battle for protection against these microbials.
