Increase UVC Disinfection Effectiveness with

POREX VIRTEK® PTFE

HIGHLY REFLECTIVE MATERIALS FOR OUTSTANDING UVC PERFORMANCE

When you see this logo you know you’re getting the most from your UV disinfection system because its effectiveness is enhanced with Porex Virtek PTFE.

This unique material is used to line the areas of the air system interior that receive direct and indirect disinfecting UVC light. With a diffuse reflectivity of up to 96% in the critical UV range, it effectively amplifies UVC light and reflects it onto areas not directly shined on which enables the UV disinfection system to perform at its peak.

Each Porex Virtek PMR10 polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sheet provides highly efficient and uniform diffuse reflectance of UV light. The material has an average reflectance of 96% at 254 nm, is chemically inert, UV resistant, and heat resistant to 500°F.

BENEFITS

  • Dramatically improve pathogen reduction in airstream when utilized with 254 nm UVC light
  • Transforms ductwork into a highly reactive disinfection chamber
  • Completely hydrophobic, eliminating the possibility of moisture intrusion into insulated duct liner
  • Protects materials from damaging UV exposure
