HeiQ Viroblock NPJ03
Antiviral and antibacterial protection
Effective in minutes
■ Strong antiviral and antibacterial effect
against enveloped viruses (incl. coronaviruses)
and bacteria
■ Suitable for all fiber types, from medical
nonwovens (e.g. face masks) to fabrics for
clothing and home textiles
■ Residual virus infectivity tested according
to a modified ISO 20743 method (Sendai),
rapid antiviral effect demonstrated within
2-5 minutes
■ Hypoallergenic, provides self-sanitizing and
germ resistant surface
What problems does HeiQ Viroblock NPJ03
solve?
Textiles are an infection and transmission risk
■ Textiles provide a large hosting surface area for bacteria and viruses, benefiting
their carryover
■ Viruses and bacteria can remain active on textile surfaces from days to months 1)
■ Human coronavirus (SARS-CoV) can persist for up to 2 days on surgical gowns at
room temperature 2)

2) G.Kampf et al (2020): “Persistence of coronaviruses on inanimate surfaces and its inactivation with biocidal agents”
HeiQ Viroblock NPJ03 helps reduce the infection and transmission risk
■ Textiles treated with HeiQ
Viroblock NPJ03 actively
inhibit viruses and kill bacteria
upon contact
■ HeiQ Viroblock NPJ03 treated
textiles help to minimize
the potential for re-transmission
of pathogens from
textiles.
■ Patent pending antiviral and antibacterial
technology
■ For standard N95 or FFP2 disposable
masks: Increases the protection of the
mask by more than 30 times
■ For washable fabrics: Lasts at least 30
gentle washes at 40°C (104°F)
■ Regulatory coverage: EU REACH compliant,
main ingredient registered with US TSCA
and US EPA
* Based on mask studies. Treated masks
reduce virus and bacteria infectivity by more
than 30 times compared to untreated masks
