Protectus Viridis ™ is formulated using approved biocides and REACH registered surfactants that interact synergistically, resulting in an environmentally responsible, water-based disinfectant.
Proven efficacy against bacteria, enveloped viruses and yeasts. Food-safe and alcohol-free disinfectant, suitable for use in professional and domestic applications.
What is Viridis?
Protectus Viridis is made out of 4 powerful ingredients.
Active + Organic Acids + Surfactant + Water
Active
Our unique Viridis formulation enhances the efficacy of this active ingredient making it a powerful disinfectant. The main active ingredient is commonly used as preservative in leave-on cosmetics.
Organic Acids
Our exclusive combination of organic acids comply with the relevant regulations and function as pH regulators, further enhancing our long lasting chemical stability.
Surfactant
Viridis uses a readily biodegradable amphoteric surfactant to help stabilise the formulation and deliver the active substance to the targeted pathogens.
Anti-bacterial mechanism
Protectus Viridis is 99.9999% effective against bacteria, such as MRSA and E.coli.
Main target
- Partially dissolves cell membrane.
- Viridis increases the acidity and the cell is forced to expend energy correcting it.
- Inside the cells, DNA replication is inhibited and highly reactive oxides form, causing cell death.

Anti-viral mechanism
Protectus Viridis™️ is 99.999% effective against all enveloped viruses, including coronaviruses. We have also proven its efficacy against specific non-enveloped viruses such as Norovirus.
Main Target
- Organic acids bind to viral envelope and prevent infection of cells.
- Proteins and lipids in the capsid are inactivated.
- Enveloped viruses are vulnerable to acidic conditions, denaturing them.
Protectus Viridis has been tested in independent accredited laboratories to a range of international standards and against various organisms as shown on our efficacy data and brochure.
Our disruptive technologies are highly effective yet kind to the environment.
