How We Protect
Surface Barrier Coatings
Better Protection
The sanitation of high touch surfaces, just doesn’t cut it in today’s world of evolving pathogens. Using our proprietary technology and application process, we apply an invisible, nearly undetectable coating to surfaces that effectively reduces viruses, bacteria, and other microbes between cleanings. Let Vytis Shield protect your surfaces so you can continue to make your patients and residents your first priority.
How To Get Started
Click below to set up a time to invite one of our experts to visit your facility. While on site, they will assess your environmental challenges and create a tailored protection plan that addresses your priorities. Baseline surface testing will be provided during this visit. Let us take the burden of surface protection off your teams shoulders; schedule your consultation today.
Why Use It
Your staff are following protocols and cleaning high touch areas as needed, however, a disinfected surface can be re-contaminated throughout the day.
Vytis Shield goes one step further and protects surfaces between cleaning events, allowing your nurses and staff to provide uninterrupted care for your patients and residents.
Surfaces We Protect
Our technology is designed to protect surfaces, all day long; and our electrostatic application process guarantees that every little nook and cranny is thoroughly coated. We even protect the spaces that may be missed by cleaning teams, such as textiles, textured walls and surfaces, ceilings and mounted screens, and the underside and inside of objects in the room. The biggest gaps in infection prevention are often in the smallest of details that get missed through routine cleaning.
Wherever Vytis Shield is applied, it acts as an invisible shield, protecting surfaces from unseen dangers between standard cleaning processes, so your staff can focus on caring for patients and residents and keeping them healthy.

Our Why
“In 2002 a family member of mine contracted a Hospital Acquired Infection (HAI) during surgery and passed away days later. The CDC estimates approximately 1.7 million Americans contract an HAI each year, with 99,000 deaths from those infections annually. I aspire to discover and create solutions to these devastating statistics.”
