Company launches paint designed to fight bacteria and viruses

A UK-founded paint company has launched a new range of paint which it says reduces bacteria commonly found in the home and helps reduce SARS-COV-2 (the virus that causes Covid-19) on painted surfaces.

The Pickleson Paint Co Protego Antimicrobial paint contains silver technology, a natural anti-microbial.

When used on walls and surfaces in the home, the silver ions kill bacteria, according to Pickleson.

Rachael Green, Co-Founder of Pickleson, said: “With this range, the customers’ safety remains at the forefront of our minds. We all know that we are facing unprecedented times with the spread of the Covid-19. And now, more than ever before, people are conscious about hygiene and the fight against harmful bacteria and viruses, so providing them with an option to make their homes a more hygienic space is vital at a time when it’s needed most.”
