The increasing use of touchscreens in our everyday lives is clear to see, but how can we make sure those touchscreens are safe from the spread of bacteria. Continuous sanitising of the displays is one option, but not always practical or reliable.

Anders has partnered with world leading brand Kastus® to offer a globally patented antimicrobial & antiviral surface coating which has a proven kill rate of up to 99.99% against harmful bacteria, fungi and antibiotic-resistant superbugs, which makes it particularly useful for products including glass and ceramics. This year, an independent testing report found Kastus to be effective against human Coronavirus on screens.

Kastus® coating technology is integrated into the glass at manufacture.

Kastus® globally patented antimicrobial & antiviral features


The process

The photocatalytic material is applied to the screen protector glass as a liquid coating, using airless spray systems, and sintered at 6-700°C. Whereas ordinary formulas become damaged at elevated temperatures, Kastus® technology is designed to withstand the high temperatures used in tempered glass production.

  • Extremely thin coating
  • Durable and clear
  • Over 99% transmittance
  • Hydrophilic, making the surface easy to wipe clean for a smart appearance

How does the Kastus solution work?

The patented technology solution is sprayed onto glass or ceramic surfaces and is then locked in to the surface during firing.

While visible light is the primary method of antimicrobial activation on a Kastus® coated surface, the technology also contains a patented ingredient that blocks bacteria growth in the dark. Ensuring always on protection in the light and in darkness too.

Once activated, this technology reacts with moisture in the air to form reactive oxygen species. These agents constantly attack and destroy the harmful bacteria they encounter, leaving a super hygienic, germ free surface.
