BioShield-360: A New Protection Service

April 10, 2020

In recent weeks, we’ve experienced the beginning of a global pandemic. Businesses and property owners are taking all the precautions they can to further prevent the spread of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) by deep cleaning and disinfecting. As we’ve learned, cleaning and disinfecting are helping but in reality, it isn’t enough to fully be protected. As of right now, there is a significant possibility that we are many months, if not years, away from meeting these thresholds. Given the severe human cost of a prolonged economic shutdown, time is of the essence. What will it take to be fully protected from this virus?

What Is BioShield-360?

BioShield-360 is a service that is effective in killing 99.9% of diseases such as Influenza, Norovirus, E. Coli Bacteria, Salmonella Bacteria, Hepatitis and HIV, Tuberculosis, and many other diseases that tend to stick on surfaces. According to the official website for BioShield, “The BioShield-360 Protection Service uses a line of patented products with EPA Registered technologies to modify surfaces. This is providing such surfaces with disinfection and durable long-term protection that kills and inhibits the growth of problematic bacteria, fungi, algae, protozoans, viruses and other microorganisms that can inhabit many of life’s surfaces.” These registered disinfectants are hospital grade and have been field-tested to ensure that it is efficient against 25 strains of the most common bacteria and viruses found in a hospital setting.

How Does it Work?

When the process of BioShield-360 begins, our product creates a Micro-biostatic Antimicrobial Coating on the surface of the object the product was sprayed on. This coating acts as a shield, protecting it from germs and potential viruses from sticking to the true surface underneath the coating. This new technology provides a perfect approach to inhibiting microorganisms without the use of unsafe heavy metals or poisons. As mentioned above, the disinfectant product is EPA and NSF registered to KILL 99.999% of bacteria, viruses, and mold on all applied surfaces and works in as little as 5 minutes. No rinse is required after the product has been placed on the surface. The spray covers every inch of the space the service is requested for – Ceiling to floor, the entire front of the home, back of the home, and bathrooms, as for example. The spray needs 15 minutes to dry and 20 minutes before the newly sprayed surface can be serviceable or occupied.
