Sigma Paints unveils innovative solution for healthcare industry

RIYADH – Sigma Paints Middle East introduced Sigmacare, its latest innovative solution for the healthcare industry in the region. Sigmacare is the latest offering by Sigma Paints Middle East that includes a range of specifically selected, high performing, environmentally friendly paints for the individual areas within healthcare facilities combined with a color solution that generates positive feelings for patients, visitors and staff in the healthcare industry.

Antoine Lejuez – Marketing Manager Middle East, said: "Sigma Paints is well known in its efforts to provide solutions that cater to the exact market needs in an innovative way. Sigmacare is our latest offering where we came up with the concept after years of detailed research and analysis to assess the needs of the market and provide it with the proper solution. It is our aim to continuously stick to our values when developing any new offering - innovation, dedication and durable protection"

The Sigmacare concept includes tailored solutions for each specific aspect of the healthcare industry and addresses specifically and directly the needs of healthcare facilities, as well as the needs of the environment, whether it is a new build construction project or the repair and maintenance of an existing healthcare facility.

Specific areas such as treatment rooms, intensive care units and recovery rooms are identified; the paint systems in these critical areas must eliminate the risks associated with cross contamination or the spread of harmful bacteria. Other functional areas of healthcare are also included within the SigmaCare concept, restaurants, kitchens, bathrooms and laundry facilities, where there is a higher risk of mould growth due to steam and or condensation.

The Sigmacare concept includes a wide range of environmentally friendly, anti fungal and anti bacterial paint systems. Included in the range is Sigmacryl Premium ABF - an anti-bacterial and fungicidal waterborne finish based on silver ion technology, Sigmacryl Flat and Silk AF - a waterborne finish paint that is resistant to moulds and algae with low voloatile organic compound (VOC) composition and Sigmacryl Ecoplus Matt and Satin - the only 0 VOC system in the Middle East which enjoys excellent opacity, is odorless and with high scrub resistance. – SG
