Mold Mitigation Applications


Mold spores are to be found everywhere in nature. There are literally hundreds of different types of mold; most (but not all) are not harmful to humans. Molds reproduce by making spores that usually cannot be seen without magnification. Mold spores are released and drift through the air. When mold spores randomly settle on a damp surface, where there is also food and oxygen, the spores begin to grow and digest whatever organic substance they land on, in order to survive. Molds gradually destroy the organic substances on which they feed. Some food sources can include wood, leaves, mulch, carpeting, some adhesives, paint, caulk, paper, insulation and in many cases, mold will proliferate within dirt or other organic debris, which can accumulate on virtually any surface.

If mold spores settle on a moist surface, where a food source is available, a mold colony can begin to form within 48 hours of contact. Left unchecked, mold can become very unsightly and can also inflict great damage to organic surfaces. In addition, some molds can negatively impact the health of individuals who suffer from allergies or other respiratory ailments. Particularly at risk are children, the elderly, those who suffer from asthma or severe allergic reactions and those who possess compromised immune systems.

MicroGuard® Protective Clear Coatings are designed to Preserve, Prolong and Protect your residential or commercial properties from problems associated with mold growth. Unlike any other coating on the market, the cured film of MicroGuard® clear finishes possess a slightly positive charged surface characteristic. This acts as a natural particle repellent and creates an inhospitable surface that will not support mold growth. Plus, the totally inorganic composition of the cured MicroGuard® film provides no organic food source for mold. With that in mind, you can protect selected areas of your property, both interior and exterior, from unhealthy and unsightly mold growth.

Adsil’s patented product process can provide you with peace of mind concerning unsightly and potentially harmful mold proliferation. Exterior surfaces, such as roofing materials, pool decks, sidewalks, driveways, patios and HVAC/R Equipment can be positively protected. Interior surfaces such as tile & grout, basement walls, concrete slabs, plumbing enclosures and acoustic tile can be effectively treated. Additional product benefits include reduced time needed for cleaning maintenance, improved indoor air quality and in many instances when the HVAC/R Equipment is coated and maintained, lower energy bills.
