Barrier coatings for textiles in the healthcare and medical field

HYDRO-TEX + VIRUSHIELD 1030

HYDRO-TEX + VIRUSHIELD 1030 is Impermea Materials' revolutionary, patent pending protective coating technology designed to turn a conventional textile into a breathable, superhydrophobic barrier that repels larger droplets, and traps smaller droplets that may contain active viruses, preventing their transmission through VIRUSHIELD protected surfaces. 

KEY BENEFITS

  • Repels liquids & blocks stains
  • Traps smaller droplets that may contain active viruses, preventing their transmission
  • Water-based formulation
  • Non-toxic & PFAS-free (100% fluorine-free)
  • Maintains breathability
  • Does not alter look or feel
