The Polygiene® partner Colors is now
launching the Regenesis ViralOff® Trigger Shield sprays and other ready-to-use
products for consumers, with Polygiene ViralOff® as the active ingredient. The products
keep soft and hard surfaces, as well as fabrics protected and shielded from
microbes and have been tested for antibacterial and antimicrobial efficacy
according to a number of ISO standards*, showing a reduction of over 99 per
cent of bacteria and microbes within two hours. The products are available
online throughout Europe.
Today, due to Coronavirus, the need
for treatments that can keep fabrics and materials protected from germs and
bacteria has increased. The Italian partner Colors, with extensive know-how
within innovation and development, as well as worldwide product distribution,
has responded to this need and created the Regenesis project and the Regenesis
ViralOff Shield products.
These products use the characteristics
of the antimicrobial Polygiene ViralOff technology created by Polygiene for the
textile industrial sector, in an accessible version for the final consumer
through the creation of a complete range of ready-to-use products in the forms
of different consumer products, such as sprays for soft, hard surfaces and
fabrics, with additional products being launched later on this year. These
products interrupt the antimicrobial activity and make sure surfaces and other
areasare shielded from microbes and preserved from odours**.
In addition, Polygiene ViralOff and
thus the Regenesis ViralOff sprays have the certification of Eco Passport by
OEKO-TEX® and reference skin tests show that the product does not interfere
with the natural bacterial flora of the skin.
“When the pandemic appeared, Colors
immediately tried to find a solution that could meet the protection and safety
needs dictated by the situation. We have thus developed a special formulation based
on the Polygiene ViralOff technology produced by Polygiene translated into the
range of antimicrobial ready-to-use products – Regenesis Shield with ViralOff
technology. We appreciate that Polygiene has the same strong focus on sustainability
as we haveâ€, said Mario David Odicini, General Manager Colors.
“This is an exciting development for
the use of our technology Polygiene ViralOff. We see that there will be an
increased interest in antimicrobial products even after the pandemic, and the
range of Regenesis ViralOff Trigger Shield sprays now being launched for consumer
use is a good response to that demand. In addition, less washing and cleaning
will be needed, which will prolong the life of the products being treated with
the sprayâ€, said Ulrika Björk, CEO Polygiene.
