What is SplashGard?

SplashGard is an additive that helps reduce the spread of mould and bacteria through dampness and condensation in typically wet areas of the home, like a bathroom or kitchen. SplashGard contains a biocide that protects the dried coating against fungal degradation adding another layer of resistance and durability to your walls.

The SplashGard formulation doesn’t affect the finish of your paint and can be added to any sheen level, still offering the same level of resilience to your paint without changing its appearance.

What is MicroSafe?

Microsafe is a technically advanced antimicrobial additive that protects against mould growth and infection. It can help keep your home safer, better protected against mould damage, and make your interior walls easier to clean, reducing the risks of cross-contamination and infection. It's proven to reduce MRSA by 99.91%, E. coli by 99.94%, and SARS COV 2 by 68.38% within 24 hours, ensuring a cleaner, safer environment. Ideal for medical facilities, kitchens, and other spaces where hygiene standards are paramount.


Where can I use these additives?

Microsafe can be used in any room, but it's not always necessary. It is best suited to rooms that endure lots of cleaning and require higher levels of hygiene. Within a home rooms like a playroom or toilet would benefit from MicroSafe as germs and bacteria are often spread at a higher rate due to uncontrollable external factors.


SplashGard is ideal for bathrooms and kitchens where condensation is high. Additionally, SplashGard could be used in the areas surrounding a swimming pool where water maybe splashed.


What was the testing process with these new additives?

SplashGard and MicroSafe were tested externally to ensure the highest degree of product quality possible. The company in question was Thor Technical Services, they specialise in Global support with an ongoing commitment to research and development in the chemical solutions industry. Both additives have been through rigorous testing and have been awarded an ISO 21702:2019 Antiviral Test Certificate.


These test results ensure the best quality of our paints for our customers. We strive to be the most trusted paint supplier for your home using science to back up our claims.
