I2 Tri-Clean contains a specific raw material that actively combats and kills coronavirus (specifically MERS-CoV and BCoV) when tested to the EN 14476 standard. There is synergistic behaviour between all the ingredients in the formulation that make I2 Tri-Clean a very good disinfectant.
Products such as L1 Leather Guard and C6 Matt Dash contain BioCote® technology. Laboratory testing has shown BioCote® to provide some resilience to a member of the coronavirus family – specifically feline coronavirus, strain Munich. As a result of the testing BioCote® technology provided a reduction of 90% in 2 hours against this particular strain.
Whilst the BioCote® results cannot be compared to the SARS-CoV-2 virus strain, the tests are a positive indicator of the efficacy of BioCote® technology against the coronavirus family.
It is important to note that the human strain (SARS-CoV-2) has currently been classed as a level 3 Biohazard and as such it has not yet been possible to carry out specific tests again this particular strain.
