Corning claims breakthrough glass-ceramic tech can kill COVID-19 virus

  • Corning (NYSE:GLW) says that paints and coatings containing its Corning Guardiant technology have demonstrated to kill more that 99.9% of bacteria and viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, in two hours or less.
  • The test was conducted under U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approval.
  • "Our scientists have developed this unique paint additive using our highly engineered glass-ceramic technology. We are excited about the new lab results and look forward to working with our valued partner PPG," says chairman and CEO Wendell P. Weeks.
  • Corning Guardiant contains copper, which is said to exhibit antimicrobial efficacy when applied to surfaces, consistently reducing germs on contact.
  • Alongside, collaborating with leading paint and coatings manufacturers around the world, including PPG, Corning currently seeks EPA registration for its paint product formulated with Corning Guardiant.
