"Leader in Green Technology Surface
Treatments Expands
Operations Globally to Australia, New Zealand & South Pacific"
Rochester Hills, MI...CSG, America’s leading provider of
environmentally-beneficial surface treatments and services, today announced
it has expanded its operations globally by partnering with Australia’s
Environmental Coating Solutions (ECS).
The international venture creates a conduit for CSG’s two brands, PURETi™
and Surface Antimicrobial System™ (SAS), into Australia, New Zealand, and
the surrounding islands of the Pacific Rim.
The agreement calls for ECS to be an exclusive sales, service and
application partner for PURETi and SAS.
“We have been able to grow our business domestically with PURETi and SAS
surface treatments because each brand addresses very important issues
regarding the environment while delivering innovative solutions to rising
maintenance costs, harmful microbial contaminants, odour, and staining,” said
Craig Andrews, Chief Executive Officer.
“I think those same unique benefits that businesses, schools and governments
in the United States have embraced will translate well into the
international market as well.”
ECS Managing Director Ian Mossman expects PURETi and SAS sales to
grow rapidly in the Australian and New Zealand markets.
“ECS specializes in supplying and applying the highly-advanced
coatings that provide a comprehensive range of environmental solutions,”
said Mr. Mossman.
“Our partnership with CSG ensures that we can provide our customers with the
most technically advanced Photocatalytic and antimicrobial treatments in the
world.”
PURETi ultraviolet Photocatalytic technology (UV-PCO) transforms surfaces
into sustainable, self-cleaning, air-purifying, and odour-eliminating
materials.
The technology uses energy from ultraviolet light to continuously and
proactively break-down all organic materials, including grime, bio-film,
smog-causing green house gases, harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs),
and stubborn organic odours such as tobacco smoke or fire damage.
Typically, surfaces treated with PURETi products need to be cleaned half as
often and it’s twice as easy when it is done. With an efficacy of up to
three years, PURETi cuts water, energy, chemicals and labor used in cleaning
in half.
One of the
world’s leading authorities on materials for environmental protection, Dr.
Alexander Orlov, who received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from Cambridge
University, feels PURETi Photocatalytic technology can have a magnificent
impact around the globe.
PURETi UV-PCO technology is an exciting development, which can address
environmental and public health issues faced by large cities using a
sustainable manner,” said Orlov.
CSG’s SAS treatments are unique, water-based antimicrobial treatments that
inhibit the growth of a bacteria, mould, and fungi non-stop on any surface
or washable fabric for years with just one application.
The product line is anchored by SurfaceAide® 1000, and also includes:
o SurfaceAide® XL,
o FabricAide® and
o TurfAide®.
All these advanced antimicrobial products are exclusively and only available
through ECS.
Just one treatment of SurfaceAide 1000 will inhibit the growth of bacteria,
mould, and fungi on surfaces for up to three years when professionally
applied.
The safe and environmentally-beneficial antimicrobial fights a wide array of
microbial growth 24/7 and its most prominent users include the New York
Yankees and the United States Military.
Moreover, SurfaceAide 1000 will not create adaptive organisms or “super
bugs” like MRSA.
SurfaceAide XL delivers all the antimicrobial characteristics of SurfaceAide
1000, except its efficacy is 90 days.
FabricAide is
a unique and innovative antimicrobial product that when applied through the
wash, will continually inhibit the growth of a wide array of bacteria,
mould, and fungi on any fabric or textile.
Defined by its
durability, FabricAide’s unmatched antimicrobial effectiveness will last a
minimum of 30 washes before another application is needed.
No other
product will eliminate odour, staining and deterioration caused by microbial
contaminants as well as FabricAide.
TurfAide,
which works non-stop to inhibit the growth of bacteria, mould, and fungi for
years, is the only EPA registered antimicrobial product in the world that
has been independently tested and approved for use on synthetic turf.
Its ability to
extend the life of the field by minimizing destructive microbial
contaminants is unmatched. Its unique and highly-advanced antimicrobial
technology will proactively eliminate odour and other issues associated with
a wide array of bacteria, mould, and fungi.
