Protective Anti-Viral Coatings with AcuraCoat®

, Stewart Engineers

Stewart Engineers' AcuraCoat® CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) system deposits a very thin layer of Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) onto glass, transforming standard glass into an anti-viral, high margin product.

Typical uses include sneeze guards, dividers, counter tops, appliances, windows and more. Whether it's flu season or Covid-19, TiO2 will help prevent the spread of disease.

The Stewart coating's protective properties eliminate the spread of many microbial organisms, converting ordinary flat glass into:

  • Anti-Viral  
  • Anti-Bacterial
  • Anti-Fungal
  • Anti-Algal

AcuraCoat® Hot Integration 
Shutting down a float line is an extremely costly, time consuming, and energy intensive process. Fortunately, it is possible to retrofit any existing float bath to accommodate the state-of-the-art AcuraCoat® CVD glass coating system. The float line will remain operational with virtually no interruptions to production.
 
Profitability of  AcuraCoat®
Using the AcuraCoat® CVD system yields higher margins on coated glass products when compared to non-coated or sputter coated glass products. As an added benefit, no ribbon interruption means float lines will remain profitable throughout the installation process.

AcuraCoat® CVD systems are far more profitable than Sputter Coat counterparts for several reasons:

  • Significantly lower capital costs
  • Lower manufacturing costs
  • Less expensive chemistry
  • Uses less power/energy
  • Single pane coated glass use
  • Eliminates edge deletion
  • Higher yields
  • Unmatched throughput
  • Increased shelf life, scratch resistance, and stain resistance
