Restoreo IRUV – Advanced Glass Coating for Thermal & UV Protection

Context & Challenge

In modern architecture and industrial environments, glass plays a vital role in aesthetics and daylight access — but also brings challenges related to heat gain, glare, and UV exposure. Standard glass allows a high level of solar radiation to pass through, increasing indoor temperatures, overloading HVAC systems, and exposing occupants and materials to harmful UV rays.Organizations are increasingly looking for scalable solutions to improve energy efficiency, interior comfort, and material protection — without sacrificing visibility or requiring invasive structural upgrades.

The Solution: Restoreo IRUV

Restoreo IRUV is a high-performance glass coating engineered to transform standard glass into a thermal and UV-protective barrier. It works by reducing solar heat gain, blocking up to 100% of UV radiation, and minimizing the transmission of infrared (IR) rays that contribute to indoor overheating. Unlike bulky retrofits or traditional films, Restoreo IRUV is applied directly to glass surfaces in a seamless, ultra-thin layer — preserving full transparency and natural light.

Application & Testing Methodology

The Restoreo IRUV coating was tested in an industrial setting in Sheffield, under controlled environmental conditions ranging from 120°C to 140°C and humidity levels between 37% and 40%.The product was applied using a professional spray coating system with optimized parameters:

- Belt speed: 3.5 – 5.0 m/s
- Nozzle height: 180 – 250 mm
- Spray flow (visual): 70% – 90%

Tests were conducted across multiple runs using visible light, UV, and infrared transmittance metrics.

Key Performance Results

Test Category Performance Range
Visible Light (Clarity) 64.0% – 87.1%
UV Blocking 99.0% – 100.0%
Infrared (IR) Blocking
54.0% – 97.0%

-UV protection was near-total, shielding occupants and interiors from harmful radiation.
-IR reduction led to significantly lower solar heat gain, supporting cooling cost reductions.
-Visible light remained high, ensuring natural lighting and visibility were unaffected.

Conclusion

Restoreo IRUV proved to be a highly effective, scalable solution for improving building envelope performance without compromising aesthetics or visibility.Its ability to block up to 100% of UV rays and reduce infrared transmission by up to 97% makes it ideal for offices, retail, hospitality, transportation hubs, and public infrastructure.

Easy to apply, non-disruptive, and visually seamless, Restoreo IRUV is a smart choice for organisations seeking thermal efficiency, sustainable design upgrades, and proven indoor protection.

Restoreo Slip Risk Prevention – Certified Safety on Every Step

Context & Challenge

Slip and fall incidents are one of the most common causes of workplace injuries, especially in high-traffic, food service environments. Kitchens, stairwells, and front-of-house areas are regularly exposed to moisture, grease, and footfall wear — making consistent floor safety difficult to maintain.Restoreo was engaged to evaluate and improve slip safety using the Pendulum Test Method — the UK’s preferred standard for measuring dynamic floor friction and legally recognized under BN EN 16165:2021.

The Solution: Restoreo Slip Risk Preventio

Restoreo’s slip risk treatment involves a complete floor safety protocol that includes:

- Professional degreasing and deep cleaning
- Surface preparation using twin-brush and wet-vac systems
- Application of antimicrobial coatings to enhance long-term grip and hygiene

This process is designed not only to lift embedded contaminants but to restore the surface’s coefficient of dynamic friction to legally acceptable levels — reducing liability and improving safety outcomes.

Methodology

Testing was performed on-site using a Floor Safe UKAS-certified pendulum tester, fitted with a calibrated FourS 96 rubber slider to simulate standard footwear.

Surfaces included:

- Kitchen flooring
- Front-of-house tilesStaff areas
- Stairwells (top and bottom)

Each area was tested both “as found” (before Restoreo treatment) and post-degreasing, under both dry and wet conditions, using water as a contaminant.

Results

According to UK HSE guidelines:

<24 PTV = High Risk
25–35 PTV =
Moderate Risk
36+ PTV =
Low Risk

Restoreo's intervention significantly improved slip resistance across all areas, especially where the initial risk was classified as High.

Conclusion

Restoreo Slip Risk Prevention proved to be an effective, standards-compliant system for improving floor safety in challenging, high-traffic environments.

The treatment process restored all tested surfaces to low or moderate slip risk levels, reducing workplace hazards and aligning with the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.

Backed by UKAS-accredited pendulum testing and applied by trained professionals, Restoreo’s solution offers not only measurable safety improvement — but also regulatory peace of mind.

Restoreo Antimicrobial – Surface Protection with Proven, Lasting Impact

Context & Challenge

In environments where hygiene is critical — healthcare, public transport, food processing, and education — surfaces are a constant vector for microbial contamination. Traditional cleaning methods offer only short-term protection and rely heavily on chemicals, repeated disinfection, and intensive labour.There was a need for a safe, long-lasting, and non-intrusive antimicrobial solution that could reduce infection risks, lower chemical usage, and maintain hygienic conditions without daily intervention.

The Solution: Restoreo Slip Risk Preventio

Restoreo Antimicrobial is an invisible, molecular-level surface coating that provides continuous disinfection for up to 12 months with a single application. Once applied, it bonds with the treated surface and creates a hostile environment for viruses, bacteria, fungi, and mould — preventing their survival, growth, or transmission.

The coating is:
- Antiviral: Proven effective against SARS-CoV-1/2, Ebola, HBV, HCV, MERS, HIV
- Antimicrobial: Eliminates superbugs like MRSA, C. difficile, Listeria, Salmonella, E. coli
- Anti-fungal / Anti-mould: Stops pathogens like Candida albicans and Aspergillus brasiliensis
-
Anti-odor: Neutralizes persistent sources of unpleasant smells

Methodology

Restoreo Antimicrobial underwent rigorous independent testing across multiple certified laboratories, including:
- GLP-compliant university labs (Ulster University, SGS, Eurofins)
- EU Biocidal Product Regulation compliance
- Broad-spectrum field tests in hospitals, ambulances, public transport, schools, and offices across 25 countries

It was also validated in real-world environments such as:
- British NHS facilities
-
Food processing plants
- High-touch areas in public transit (buttons, handrails, seating)

Each test confirmed that a single application provides non-stop protection for at least 12 months, even after regular cleaning cycles and exposure to wear and tear.

Application Method

Restoreo Antimicrobial is applied by certified professionals using electrostatic spray systems or manual coating tools.
The treatment is:
- Fast to apply (no downtime needed)
- Transparent and non-intrusive
- UV-stable and safe for humans, materials, and the environment

It can be used on metal, plastic, glass, fabric, ceramics, painted surfaces and more.

Results & Impact

- 99.9% reduction in pathogen load within minutes of application
- Effective for 12 months without needing reapplication
- Reduced need for daily disinfection and harsh chemicals
- Improved employee and customer safety perception
- Lower cleaning and labour costs
- No contribution to chemical runoff or BOC emissions

Conclusion

Restoreo Antimicrobial offers a science-backed, field-tested solution to one of the biggest modern challenges: maintaining consistent surface hygiene in high-use environments.

With its proven ability to reduce infections, cut operational costs, and support sustainability goals, Restoreo is not just a coating — it's a commitment to a cleaner, safer future.
