Within hours Moorland had all their door handles and touch surfaces protected for at least a year. Not only that, as TouchProtect ® has a tracer within the paint, Moorland can now monitor the level of protection the paint is providing as the coats age. This means Moorland will know when to reapply the paint to keep up the level of protection without the need for guesswork and with the avoidance of unnecessary repeat applications, saving time and money. The main benefits of TouchProtect ® from Moorland’s perspective were: • An opportunity to break the chain of transmission of Covid-19 and other bacteria/viruses on contact surfaces • Quick and easy application • A potential reduction in sick days • Bolsters reputation in line with the school’s vision Mr Jonathan Harrison the proprietor of Moorland School said, “TouchProtect ® has provided us with an efficient way to protect all of our people quickly and cost-effectively.
