MRSA is rapidly spreading in our area - we can help you stop it
in your building -
Titanium Dioxide
(TiO2) is 99.96% effective against MRSA and continues to protect
surfaces for up to 2 years.
MRSA bacterial
infections are all over the news now and are causing panic in some
communities.
Panic-levels may not be justified, although MRSA is very serious and
can be dangerous especially to children, the elderly, and anyone
else with a weakened immune system.
And for those that aren’t at high risk for death, it is still
a miserable experience to go through.
There are lots of
products that will kill the MRSA (as well as other) bacteria
including bleach and hydrogen peroxide.
The downside to these cleaners is that they do not offer
residual protection – a surface can be disinfected one night and
re-infected the very next day. And wiping down EVERY surface in your
building just once is unbelievably time consuming – you just can’t
do it every day.
TiO2 is applied
with a specialized sprayer and can be sprayed on every surface in
your building – even windows, glass, toilets, and floors.
It is not removed with non-ammonia cleaners.
When these surfaces are exposed to UV light (either natural
or artificial) the TiO2 is activated and will continually kill
bacteria (MRSA, staph, strep , etc) and viruses (influenza,
notovirus, colds, GI, Avian flu, etc).
You can offer continuous protection in just one-step and
significantly reduce your risk of spreading MRSA and other dangerous
“bugs”. In addition, TiO2
reduces odors (VOC and organic)and makes many areas “self-cleaning”
as dirt just won’t accumulate.
Mold spores can not survive on surfaces treated with TiO2.
TiO2 has been
around for decades – its in sunscreen, cosmetics and many other
products – it is completely safe has been deemed a
“Green” product.
With the right light and application, it is 3 times stronger than
chlorination and 1.5 times stronger than ozone. Breakthrough
technology now allows it to be applied more effectively, faster and
affordable. When
paired with our Dynamic Air Purifier in your HVAC system, you can
create a super clean, super healthy environment to improve the
health, morale, and attendance of your staff, students, patients,
families, etc.
So why are we so
interested in MRSA - we've been through it - my wife contracted it last
spring in a tiny wound on her leg – not only was it extremely painful,
but the infection and the extremely-potent antibiotics left her
feeling horrible for over a month. And
of course as a parent, her main concern was that our children did
not pick up the bacteria. She talked with our pediatrician who
told her that they were treating 1 -2 NEW cases PER week (that is
still consistent as of October so it is still rapidly spreading
among children).
We sprayed the entire interior of our home with TiO2 to prevent
any cross-contamination. We also have a Dynamic Air Cleaner
and TiO2/UV induct air purifier working together and feel confident
that the bacteria and the risk have been eliminated from our house.
On a side note, TiO2
also protects from the dreaded cold and flu season - happy to report
my youngest just went through a serious cold and no one else in the
family caught it from her - usually those things just go through
one-by-one. We know this approach works.
