Powered by light, the self-cleaning surface use mineral nanocrystals to create an oxidation reaction.
The surfaces also have the ability to work 24/7 since the oxidation reaction is powered by any visible light, including incandescent, fluorescent and LED light.
The nanocrystals generate a strong static effect at a microscopic scale to trap organic contaminants even in the absence of light.
