Arteco Specialty Services Launches Disinfect & Shield: Organic FDA and EPA Approved Disinfectant Kills COVID-19 On Contact


Arteco Specialty Services is proud to introduce FDA and EPA approved and Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) listed Disinfect & ShieldTM, answering the urgent need for a safe and effective disinfectant that kills SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 – plus other dangerous viruses, bacteria and microbes – on contact. It also creates a permanent anti-microbial shield that prevents these dangerous organisms from attaching to the surface where it has been applied without risk to humans, animals or crops.

Conventional antimicrobial formulations have hampered worldwide efforts to control COVID-19’s environmental contamination and offer only short-term protection of surfaces. In comparison, Disinfect & Shield applies a safe fast acting, fully organic coating that kills harmful organisms and viruses on contact, including the Novel Coronavirus, bacteria and other dangerous microbes. Upon encountering a surface treated (similar to applying a coat of paint) with Disinfect & Shield, microbes will become exhausted, wither and die, while traditional disinfectants keep microbes in place long after its application.

Any place where people gather to work, learn or play should be kept virus free including:

  • Hospitals
  • Nursing Homes/ Assisted Living Facilities
  • Public Transportation
  • Airports and Planes
  • Hotels
  • Government Facilities
  • Office Buildings
  • Cinemas
  • Restaurants
  • Malls
  • Bars and Night Clubs
  • Fitness Facilities
  • Schools, Colleges & Universities
  • Cruise Ships

When a surface is coated with Disinfect & Shield, millions of nanoscopic crystalline structures begin forming and bonding with the surface, effectively killing the cells of the biothreat attempting to attach to the object resulting in a “mechanical kill.” Disinfect & Shield modifies the treated surface, preventing adhesion, disrupting microbial communication, and prohibiting colonization, reproduction and proliferation of the virus or bacteria.

Arteco Specialty Services provides professional decontamination services on a regularly scheduled basis and offers bulk purchases for use with a variety of application equipment. Disinfect & Shield is available for commercial cleaning, hand sanitizer and wound care.
