By developing a special coating technology that neutralizes viruses and bacteria on glass surfaces, Şişecam Group has implemented 'antimicrobial V-Block Technology' that will contribute to the fight against the epidemic.

The antimicrobial effectiveness of the world's first antimicrobial coated glassware products with V-Block Technology has been reported to be quite high. V-Block Technology covers the surface, preventing harmful organisms from sheltering and reproducing on the glass surface. Authorized laboratories where this special formula, which provides 24/7 ultra hygiene, is 94.1% effective against Covid-19 and T.C. Approved by the Department of Health. The result of the laboratories:

• 99.5% effective against Staphylococcus Aureus, Escherichia Coli bacteria,
• 94.1% effective against the Covid-19 (SARS-CoV-2) virus,
• 90% effective against Human Coronavirus 229E and Bovine Coronavirus,
• 99% effective against Poliovirus Type 1
• 99.5% effective against Adenovirus Type 5 and Murine Norovirus

What Is V-Block Technology?

A special formula applied to the outer surface of products at high temperatures by the method of depositing steam during production remains constantly active; in addition to home use, hotels, restaurants, cafes, hospitals, dining halls contribute significantly to the fight against the pandemic when used in.

List of products manufactured by the company with V-block technology >> V-Block - Paşabahçe

Antimicrobial V-Block Technology, which successfully results in food contact tests, neutralizes viruses and bacteria on glass surfaces. Antimicrobial V-Block Technology of glass products coated with Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli bacteria; the bacteriophage, Feline calicivirus (FCV), Adenovirus, Canine parvovirus, hepatitis A virus, herpes simplex virus, influenza A, which is the murine norovirus, Poliovirus, Rhinovirus, Rotavirus, Vacciniavirus as many different viruses and bacteria to live and the likelihood of the spread was significantly reduced.

According to preliminary findings, it is also effective on Covid-19

Preliminary findings indicate that the new type of coronavirus (Kovid-19) is also effective in testing and development processes in this area. It continues to maintain high quality elements such as color, transparency, light transmittance of products manufactured with this technology. Surfaces of glassware coated with antimicrobial V-Block Technology were found to be effective at rates ranging from 90 to 99.5 percent on tested viruses and bacteria and 94.1 percent on Covid - 19 (SARS-COV2) virus.

It has been tested by accredited laboratories and its effectiveness is T.C. It was also approved by the Ministry of Health.

It is very difficult to prevent the growth of microorganisms in non-moving water (stationary) and waiting liquids!  

Normally, on surfaces such as pools or water discharge areas, in areas where there are water sources that do not move, it is almost impossible to prevent the growth of microorganisms on these surfaces. For example, single-celled creatures and resistant bacteria can reproduce on the inner surface of bottles containing antiseptics (such as batticon), even in pools disinfected with chlorine. After the glass products I share with you in this link are usually used several times, it is appropriate to wash them again as in normal cups, not to use the same product by more than one person, and to wash their surfaces again with detergents and hot water. Although it is designed as an antiseptic surface, it is not appropriate to use the product repeatedly by wiping these surfaces with only a cloth. It can be useful in terms of reducing the spread, transmission of coronavirus and other microorganisms. As part of coronavirus measures, please consider the recommendations of the Official COVID-19 Information - World Health Organization and the Republic of Turkey Ministry of Health.
