Hygienic Coatings by Sika

Sika’s hygienic coatings for walls and ceilings are world renown and specifically designed to meet both the functional and aesthetic demands of environments where the highest standards of hygiene are essential. These coatings are extensively used in critical areas such as healthcare facilities, pharmaceutical production, and food manufacturing, where health and safety are of utmost importance.

Following Sika’s acquisition of Liquid Plastics Ltd, Sika has continued supplying the extremely well-known and well-used Steridex, Sterisheen, and Sterimatt products (rebranded as Sikagard 403W, 405W, and 406W).

Goss has been applying Steridex, Sterisheen, and Sterimatt since 1988, including spray-applied, conventionally applied, and fibreglass-reinforced coating variants.

Benefits of Sikagard® Hygienic Wall Coatings

Sikagard® hygienic wall coatings are particularly suitable for hospitals, medical centres, and food and beverage production facilities, leisure sectors and facilities, offering a multitude of benefits:

Ease of Maintenance: These coatings are easy to clean, reducing maintenance costs and time while ensuring a dust-free environment.

Certified for Hygiene: They hold all necessary hygiene certifications and approvals.

Healthy Indoor Air Quality: The coatings feature minimal volatile organic compounds (VOCs), airborne molecular contaminants (AMCs), and particle emissions.

Durability: Their performance remains unaffected by rigorous cleaning and disinfection procedures.

Aesthetic Flexibility: Available in a wide range of colours, they help create pleasant and welcoming interior environments.

Seamless Application: Free from joints, seams, and other dirt and bacteria traps.

Antimicrobial Resistance: The organic in-film preservative offers robust resistance against bacteria, fungi, mould, yeast, and algae.

Applications of Sika Hygienic Coatings

Sikagard® hygienic wall coatings are ideal for areas requiring stringent hygiene standards, including clinical areas, emergency rooms (ERs), operating rooms, medical laboratories, research rooms, and kitchens. Over the years, Goss has installed Sika (formerly Liquid Plastics) coatings in environments as diverse as private swimming pools, satellite technology laboratories, bioengineering facilities, and commercial kitchens.

The hygienic benefits of Sika coatings extend further into a wide range of areas beyond medical, pharmaceutical, and food production environments. Such areas include:
