Polisan Kansai Boya Develops Paint Against Covid-19

Polisan Kansai Boya announced the addition of a new product to its innovative paint family. Through R&D investments, Polisan Kansai Boya develops innovative and environmentally friendly products that meet consumer expectations in every aspect, and has developed an interior paint effective against Covid. ELEGANS ANTI-COVID, which prevents 99.99% of Covid 19 virus adhesion to walls and whose effectiveness is proven, will be launched in September to bring hygiene to indoor wall surfaces. The effectiveness of ELEGANS ANTI-COVID against the Covid 19 virus is approved, keeping the pandemic away from interior wall surfaces. Polisan Kansai General Manager Cemal Drahor stated, "In the decorative paint group, we have 93,000 color formulations and all of them are water-based. To our hygienic paint family, which is resistant to all kinds of negative factors that can affect human health such as mold, fungus and bacteria, we have added ELEGANS ANTI-COVID as a result of long efforts by our R&D center. Our product reduces risk by preventing the Covid 19 virus from adhering to walls," he said.

Paint selection now values health as much as color

Due to the impact of the pandemic, consumers now place equal importance on whether paint is water-based, odorless and healthy as they do on color when selecting paint. Products that provide extra hygiene by preventing mold and bacterial formation through their antibacterial and antifungal properties have come increasingly to the fore in recent times. Polisan Kansai Boya, which offers smiling solutions to those wanting to renovate their homes with the slogan "Smile at Life with Polisan," has added ELEGANS ANTI-COVID, Turkey's first interior paint effective against Covid, to its product family as a result of intensive R&D efforts.

To be used in hospitals and nurseries

Polisan Kansai Boya General Manager Cemal Drahor, stating that "At a time when face-to-face education is beginning in schools and different variants of Covid are becoming a concern, knowing that our loved ones are safe is everyone's priority," noted that ELEGANS ANTI-COVID, specially formulated, in addition to its antibacterial and antifungal structure, prevents the Covid 19 virus from adhering to walls and reduces the risk of pathogenic virus and bacterial infection. The product will be effective against the pandemic not only in homes but also particularly in common-use areas such as hospitals, classrooms, sports halls, dining halls, medical offices and offices.

Anti-Covid paint also prevents wall cracking

Polisan Kansai Boya General Manager Cemal Drahor, saying "We have a dynamic structure that continuously develops new products and paints at our R&D center," speaks about the innovative new products added to the paint family as follows: "While the entire world went through a difficult process with the pandemic, everyone, especially healthcare workers, worked with all their strength. As Polisan Kansai Boya, we continued our work on innovative and value-added products that would meet consumer expectations and fight the virus. With our R&D investments, which play a major role in the development of innovative functional products, we continue to develop products that are environmentally conscious, have high added value, and meet consumer needs today and in the future. Our newly approved product ELEGANS ANTI-COVID reduces risk by preventing the Covid 19 virus from adhering to walls. At the same time, it stands out as an environmentally sensitive product with its low VOC content, does not crack thanks to its flexibility, and provides extra square meter advantage with its high coverage. We will continue to add new products to our innovative product range."
