BioRid – keeps your surfaces dry and clean

BioRid is a water-borne, functional coating for elimination of moisture and for keeping the coating surface dry. Mold prevention is based on the physical processes occurring in micropores.

The paint film temporarily accumulates water inside during the condensation period, and when the surface temperature is above dew point, the moisture evaporates into the atmosphere. This evaporation process happens in a more efficient way compared to a flat surface due to the microporous matrix technology.

Biorid drytech surfaces

For example, one square meter of BioRid in a thickness of approx. 1mm represents a 12,000 times increase in relative surface, i.e. about the size of two football fields.  That is why water evaporates faster and the painted surface stays dry.

BioRid Treatment

Application

BioRid is especially suitable for new and previously painted surfaces in conditions, where protection of the paint film from mold contamination is required, such as living facilities, bathrooms, cellars, parking garages, food industry premises, warehouses and animal husbandry operations.

There are two versions of BioRid for brush, roller and spray application:
