Our disruptive technologies are highly effective yet kind to the environment

ProtectUs Viridis is formulated using approved biocides and REACH registered surfactants that interact synergistically, resulting in an environmentally responsible, water-based disinfectant.

Proven efficacy against bacteria, enveloped viruses and yeasts. Food-safe and alcohol-free disinfectant, suitable for use in professional and domestic applications.

What is in ProtectUs Viridis?

ProtectUs Viridis is made of 4 powerful ingredients. 

Active + Organic Acids + Surfactant + Water  

Active

Our unique Viridis formulation enhances the efficacy of this active ingredient making it a powerful disinfectant. The main active ingredient is commonly used as preservative in leave-on cosmetics.

Organic Acids

Our exclusive combination of organic acids comply with the relevant regulations and function as pH regulators, further enhancing our long lasting chemical stability. 

Surfactant

Our amphoteric surfactant is both cationic and anionic (positive and negative charges) which helps stabilises the formulation and deliver the active substance to the targeted pathogens.

Water

Our unique formulation means our disinfectant can be dissolved in water, rather than harsh organic solvents, allowing it to be effectively applied.
Protectus Viridis is biodegradable.

How does Viridis work?

Anti-bacterial mechanism

Protectus Viridis is 99.9999% effective against bacteria, such as MRSA and E.coli.

Main Targets 

  • Partially dissolves cell membrane.
  • Viridis increases the acidity and the cell is forced to expend energy correcting it.
  • Inside the cells, DNA replication is inhibited and highly reactive oxides form, causing cell death.

​Anti-viral mechanism

Protectus Viridis is 99.999% effective against enveloped viruses, such as Coronaviruses and Noroviruses.

Main Targets 

  • Organic acids bind to viral envelope and prevent infection of cells.
  • Proteins and lipids in the capsid are inactivated.
  • Enveloped viruses are vulnerable to acidic conditions, denaturing them.

The ProtectUs range of products are highly effective, fast acting, long lasting and environmentally sustainable.
