About

Based in Lancaster, UK, Viracoat Ltd., a subsidiary of ViraCorp, operates as a biotechnology research company that developed and released a novel antiviral and antimicrobial coating material (ACM). As of 2022, Jon Chadwick is the CEO of the company. In September 2021, Viracoat raised GBP 2 million in venture funding from investors. The company offers a Virucidal FFP2 Mask with Neutrapodal™ technology to inactivate the virus and assist in limiting the spread of COVID-19 and other microorganisms. The firm's FFP2 mask has antiviral properties against SARS-CoV-2 (including new strains), influenza (PR8 strain), and bacteria (E. coli). ViraCoat's masks have five layers: the innermost layer, which touches the face, is made of a soft, absorbent non-woven fabric, followed by two layers of melt-blown cloth that together serve as a filter, and the outermost layer, which is hydrophobic Neutrapodal™-coated.
