Glass is a commonly used material in and around us. From doors and windows to tabletops, they are found in several contemporary designs. One can easily find an element of glass when walking into a commercial or residential building. Glass makes the aesthetics pleasant and creates an illusion of space. However, they tend to be sensible, fragile and get dirty soon. When a clean glass window can give the design an edge over others, a dirty glass window will take that away. We have a nano self-cleaning coating which is ideal to keep the glass clean at all times with no effort. But, to apply the coating and keeping your glass windows clean, you need to put in the effort to clean the windows. Here are some tips to clean your glass windows.

Most of the cleaning materials we tend to use have a high dose of VOC which are perilous to your as well as the earth’s health. Hence, we have tips which are easy as well as don’t harm in any which way.

Distilled water is the key: When the window cleaning day comes, most people don’t care about the water they use. Unlike other materials, the water content matters when it comes to glass. Water plays a big role in keeping the glass clean and streak-free. It matters even more when the water you use is hard water. Distilled water has no minerals or hardness making it ideal for a streak-free glass.

Vinegar will save your glass and money: Vinegar is one of those ingredients which will make you go ga-ga. It is great to drizzle over your salad and also equally amazing to sprinkle over your glass windows. For a natural and cheaper option, a vinegar-water solution can do wonders. Mixed at a ratio of 1:1, the vinegar-water cleaner will make your glass shiny in no time.

Say no to paper towels: When we think of the glass cleaning supplies, paper towels come first to mind. They are almost always in the cleaning supplies box. Well, as it seems, paper towels are not good at cleaning glass windows. In fact, they make matters worse. They leave behind linty streaks which make it tough to clean later. Using a microfiber cloth or even newspapers is a better option. However, if you are planning to use newspapers, make sure you have a pair of gloves handy as the ink might spread.

These are a few tips for cleaning glass windows. After you have cleaned the glass windows, make sure you use a dry microfiber cloth to wipe it off real good. This will remove any streaks, if present, and give a final touch to your hard work. Now that your glass is clean, you can focus on keeping it clean. The best way to do that is using our nano self-cleaning coating. It will save a lot of time and money. Moreover, it is an environmentally friendly compound which gives it an edge over others.

The need for clean and renewable energy sources can be cited as the reason behind the use of more and more solar panels. Solar panels are making our lives easier while keeping the environment safe. Solar panels are entering the mainstream energy market gradually and rightfully so. Owing to the global concern, it is not uncommon to find a solar panel on the rooftops. Though most solar panels come with the photocatalytic self-cleaning coating, they might get dirty over time and you might need to clean them. Bird dropping, grime, accumulated dust can be the reason behind an unclean solar panel.

TitanPE Technologies provides the photocatalytic self cleaning coating for keeping the solar panels clean, but we understand that you need to clean the panel as well. Here are some tips that you should keep in mind when cleaning solar panels.

Overcast conditions: Make it a point to clean the solar panels on an overcast or cloudy day, early in the evening. The idea is to clean it when the sun is not at its maximum potential. When the sun is at its peak, the water used to clean the panel will vaporize quickly and the glass will be full of streaks.

Avoid using hard objects: Don’t use metal objects or hard abrasives to clean the solar panels. There is a chance of getting scratches on the panel. Moreover, these scratches can impact the efficiency of the panel. Not just that, avoid detergents as much as possible. Detergents and abrasive products can leave streaks and scratches on the panel.

Soft fabric is a must: Generally, solar panels are easy to clean and with a little distilled water and a microfiber cloth, you can keep it clean. Soft fabric like microfiber or a coarse cloth covered sponge can do the trick. Moreover, make sure you use clean distilled water. The tap water might have minerals which can leave streaks behind. Use distilled water to clean the solar panels.

These are some basic cleaning tips for solar panels. Solar panels come with the photocatalytic self-cleaning coating which will keep it clean for the longest time. That said, you don’t need to clean the panels if they aren’t dirty enough to impact the performance. In case you live near an industrial area and oily stains are an issue for your panels, you can use isopropyl alcohol for the cleaning purpose.

There are several risks associated with cleaning solar panels on rooftops. If you have to clean it, try doing that from the ground using required supplies. If that is not an option and you wish to go to the rooftop to clean, make sure you follow proper safety guidelines. The best thing one can do is leave it to the professionals. Cleaning the rooftop solar panels is a risky affair and you should be careful while cleaning it.

The demand for antimicrobial coatings is growing rapidly and rightfully so! There are several benefits of getting these coatings to work in an environment of potentially dangerous microbes. The key term to notice here is potentially dangerous, which shouldn’t be confused with certainly dangerous. When we say potentially dangerous areas having microbes, we mean places like hospital products, and maybe some commonly used things like a spoon or even a keyboard.

Why are these coatings so popular?

Today, the industry of antimicrobial coatings is considered a billion-dollar industry and healthcare sector has the largest demand. There is a significant cash flow towards the research and development of antimicrobial coatings. So, what makes them so special? Here are some benefits of the antimicrobial coatings that make them an in-demand product today.

Antimicrobial coatings help to stop the growth of pathogens which have the potential to harm many things around them. These coatings are easy to use and are as effective as possible.

Since the antimicrobial coatings we provide are based on nanotechnology, they have a lower impact on the environment. On the other hand, the chemical disinfectants generally used have serious implications for the environment.

If the surface it is applied to doesn’t need a thorough cleaning every now and then, the cleaning time and cost are reduced considerably.

The benefits in healthcare sector

As mentioned earlier, the healthcare sector is one of the largest users of the antimicrobial coating. Are you wondering about the reason behind it? Well, to understand that, we need to look at the most common areas where the coatings are applied. Antimicrobial coatings are generally applied to counters, walls, door handles, and other areas that involve a lot of touches. Coming back to the medical sector, there are several areas which involve a lot of touching. In addition to that, there are microbes lurking in the air. To keep everything safe for the patient, regular cleaning of the medical facilities is a necessity. Considering the amount of time and money the antimicrobial coatings save while being equally effective, the healthcare sector is not shying away from it. The environmental impact of cleaning medical facilities is way too high and the use of the powerful antimicrobial coatings reduces it significantly.

At the TitanPE Technologies, we use nanotechnology to build a better future. Our antimicrobial coating based on nanotechnology is the best option as of now. Place your order now to get the best of nanotechnology for your needs. Get in touch with us to know more about the antimicrobial coatings as well as nanotechnology.
