Diverse applications for unique hygiene
Solutions from MUNDITECH
Whether plastics, paper and board, nonwovens and textiles or paints and varnishes, Mundex offers industry partners from a wide range of sectors tailor-made solutions for biocide-free antimicrobial finishing of surfaces/products. Mundex formulations are completely biodegradable and are largely based on naturally renewable raw materials. This makes them environmentally friendly and avoids "microplastics", which are causing increasing damage to nature worldwide.
Nonwovens and textiles
With Mundex, even soft surfaces such as nonwovens and textiles can be treated antimicrobially and biocide-free. Conventional application methods such as spraying, dipping, doctoring, foaming or padding are used. In this way, antimicrobial filter media (e.g. air or water filters) and textiles (e.g. mattresses and bedding) can be produced. An additional positive effect of Mundex products, e.g. for technical textiles, bedding, mattresses and shoe insoles: odour absorption.
Application examples
_ Antimicrobial coatings for air/water filters
_ Coatings for antibacterial and antiviral wipes
_ Antimicrobial coatings for hygiene fleeces
_ Antimicrobial coatings for technical textiles
_ Antimicrobial coatings for mattresses and bedding
_ Antimicrobial finish for workwear
Application examples
_ Antimicrobial coatings for air/water filters
_ Coatings for antibacterial and antiviral cleaning cloths
_ Antimicrobial coatings for hygiene nonwovens
_ Antimicrobial coatings for technical textiles
_ Antimicrobial coatings for mattresses and bedding
Paper and cardboard
Paper and cardboard is difficult to clean, making it an ideal breeding ground for microorganisms. Mundex provides highly efficient, permanent and biocide-free protection against bacteria, viruses and moulds throughout the life of paper and board. Equipped with Mundex, paper or board can be used in many industries, e.g. as antimicrobial packaging, which also increases the shelf life of perishable food - completely without microplastics.
Application examples
_ Coatings for antimicrobial wallpaper
_ Coatings for antimicrobial food packaging
_ Coatings for antimicrobial cardboard packaging
Paints and varnishes
Equipped with Mundex, paints and varnishes offer lasting protection against bacteria, viruses, mould and algae - without the use of toxic biocides. Even if Mundex is subsequently integrated into the industrial manufacturing process, all paint and varnish properties remain unchanged. Only one new property is added: when equipped with Mundex, lacquers and paints generally prevent the growth of microorganisms. Thus, they help to considerably improve the hygiene of products.
Application examples
_ Antiviral and antibacterial indoor wall paints
_ Water-repellent and antimicrobial wall coatings
_ Anti-mold formulations
_ Antiviral and antibacterial furniture paints
_ Antimicrobial coatings for kitchen worktops
Application examples
_ Antimicrobial coatings for air/water filters
_ Coatings for antibacterial and antiviral cleaning cloths
_ Antimicrobial coatings for hygiene nonwovens
_ Antimicrobial coatings for technical textiles
_ Antimicrobial coatings for mattresses and bedding
Plastics
Plastics and plastic compounds treated with Mundex offer lasting protection against bacteria, viruses, mould and algae without the use of toxic agents such as biocides. All Mundex formulations for plastics are almost completely biodegradable and based on naturally renewable raw materials. This also makes Mundex the ideal complement to compostable bioplastics, which are also based on natural resources and whose microparticles biodegrade within a few months.
Application examples
_ Biocide-free, antiviral and antibacterial plastics and plastic compounds
_ Biodegradable antiviral and antibacterial plastics
Cleaning and desinfection
The global pandemic has shown how important daily hygiene is - or should be.
should be. Everywhere. That's why MUNDITECH has developed products for daily use that offer a combination of cleaning and permanent disinfection. Mundex also ensures a higher standard of safety in critical areas: whether light switches, door handles, hotel and catering furniture or sensitive contact surfaces of all kinds, the highly efficient instant antimicrobial effect of Mundex, especially in combination with cleaning agents and disinfectants, significantly increases the standard of hygiene.
Application examples
_ Combination products disinfection + long-term protection
_ Combination products cleaning + long-term protection
Application examples
_ Antimicrobial coatings for air/water filters
_ Coatings for antibacterial and antiviral cleaning cloths
_ Antimicrobial coatings for hygiene nonwovens
_ Antimicrobial coatings for technical textiles
_ Antimicrobial coatings for mattresses and bedding
The right hygiene solution – for you too!
There are many ways to make surfaces and products biocide-free and antimicrobial - and they are all called Mundex. For the production of permanently antimicrobial surfaces, the Mundex W, L, HS or B technologies are used, depending on the application and application method - or product formulations tailored on their basis.
