Transforming Tomorrow

By Solving Global Microbial Challenges

“Never has the threat of antimicrobial resistance been more immediate and the need for solutions more urgent”

Dr. Terdos Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director General

Current antimicrobials are inadequate

Instead of providing a lasting solution, they introduce new challenges.

  • Increased resistance
  • Ineffective
  • Toxic (substances of very high concern)
  • Short lasting

Microbial challenges — ranging from bacteria and fungi to viruses and microalgae — impose significant health, engineering, and financial burdens across major industries.

Health risks

Cause infections, diseases and allergies, reducing productivity.

Material degradation

Degrade materials, causing discoloration and inventory loss.

Antimicrobial resistance

Drive antimicrobial resistance, complicating treatments.

Unpleasant odors

Generate unpleasant odors, impacting enviroments/products.

Food safety

Pose serious health risks to food through toxins and pathogens.

Microbes challenges all industries

Microbes impose heavy burdens on industries worldwide. Microbes present significant challenges across various sectors due to their pervasive nature and potential to cause harm.

Current antimicrobials are inadequate

Our technology Crystalitic® provides the solution

Crystalitic® is an advanced antimicrobial technology that utilizes proprietray catalytic crystals. Crystalitic® can be integrated into various materials or applied as a surface coating to provide antimicrobial protection.

N

Crystal-based technology synthesized from minerals – free from hormone-disrupting chemicals.

N

Broad-spectrum effectiveness targets and kills bacteria, viruses, fungi and other harmful microbes.

N

Long-lasting protection that continues to guard against microbes over many years.

N

Safe and resistant, preventing the development of resistance, and free from nano-particles and silver.

N

It is highly durable and remains effective even when exposed to water, heat, detergents, alcohol and UV light.

Crystalitic® consist of catalytic crystals allowing seamless integration into a broad variety of materials – see the list below.
