TiCoat® Surface Protect is applied as a uniform layer, creating a long-lasting bonded protective barrier. Harnessing the power of any light source, including LED, TiCoat® functions as a photocatalyst, meaning it continuously cleans and deodorizes surfaces. Simply put, it’s "Always Cleaning, All the Time.™"
Designed for versatility, TiCoat® is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. These include offices, breakrooms, walkways, restrooms, cafeterias, conference rooms, classrooms, locker rooms, stadiums, gymnasiums, and other areas.
TiCoat® adheres effectively to a wide range of materials, including solid surfaces and flexible textiles, providing comprehensive protection and cleanliness.
Long Lasting Protection, Self-Cleaning With Light:
INTERIOR USES
Bathrooms - Treat all surfaces for surface protection, slip resistance, reduction in cleaning frequency and ODOR control.
Marble, Wood & Tile Floors - Treat for surface protection, slip resistance and reduction in cleaning frequency.
Windows - Treat for surface protection, fingerprint mitigation and reduction in cleaning frequency.
Offices, classrooms, dorms & furniture - Treat for surface protection, reduction in cleaning frequency and ODOR control.
Locker Rooms - Treat for surface protection, reduction in cleaning frequency and ODOR control.
EXTERIOR USES
Windows - Treat for surface protection, fingerprint mitigation and reduction in cleaning and power washing frequency.
Stone, Paver & Cement Walks –Treat for slip resistance, faster drying surfaces and prevention of surface contaminants and stains. Surface contaminants and stains (e.g., dirt, grease, smoke, mold, pollen, algae, bird droppings) will not stick to TiCoat® treated surfaces and wash away easily.
Surface Protection for Offices, Schools, and Universities - Experience Safe and Sustainable Cleaning
TiCoat® Surface Protect is an innovative cleaning solution engineered for interior and exterior use.
Many popular cleaning methods are time-consuming, ineffective, expensive, and toxic. However, TiCoat® Surface Protect only needs to be applied once and uses either natural or artificial light to safely clean and deodorize contaminants that touch its surface. It safely protects surfaces for the long term, keeping them more hygienic and smelling better.
This new, sustainable product is a reimagined and perfected improvement on technology that has been used in Japan for decades.
TiCoat® Surface Protect offers:
- Increased cleaning efficiency
- Improved air quality by reducing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs)
- Continuous odor control
- Slip resistance by creating fast-drying surfaces
- Non-stick protection – contaminants and stains wash away quickly
This product is safe for people, animals, and the environment. It’s self-cleaning (using light to clean surfaces), transparent, and engineered for long-lasting protection.

Surface Protection for Offices, Schools, and Universities FAQ
Here are answers to common questions about TiCoat® and surface protection for offices, schools, and universities. If we don’t answer all your questions here, please visit our main FAQ page or contact us.
How Does TiCoat® Work?
TiCoat® Surface Protect is a ceramic photocatalyst protective coating that actively cleans and deodorizes using light, oxygen, and water in the air to break down contaminants and odors that touch its surfaces.
Once applied to a surface, it converts light energy from any source – including sunlight, fluorescent light, and LED light – to create a reaction with contaminants and odors.
Wipe treated surfaces with a water-based cleaner and let TiCoat® Surface Protect reduce organic stains and eliminate odors.
Where can TiCoat® be used in offices, schools, and universities?
TiCoat® Surface Protect is great for small, midsize, and large-scale applications in office buildings and educational facilities. This includes interior and exterior surfaces in K-12 school buildings including elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools, as well as college campuses and state universities.
TiCoat® works on porous and non-porous surfaces including metals, plastics, glass, wood, painted and stained surfaces, cement, stucco, fabrics, and more. This high-quality surface protection product is ideal for offices, classrooms, restrooms, vestibules, locker rooms, gymnasiums, and other areas with high foot traffic.
What are the benefits of TiCoat® in office and educational institutions?
There are many benefits of using TiCoat® in offices, schools, and universities. For example, after applying TiCoat® to bathrooms with significant odor, you can see immediate and sustained odor control, easier maintenance of treated surfaces, savings in cleaning time and chemical spend, and self-cleaning exterior surfaces.
Likewise, as a floor coating system TiCoat® shows results in faster drying floors, creating slip resistance in areas such as interior and exterior marble floors. Slip-resistant floors can help make walkways safer for employees and students with disabilities.
Additionally, TiCoat® can help make it easier to remove graffiti and other vandalism on bathroom walls and other surfaces.
How long does the protection last?
TiCoat® is a long-lasting coating which does not require constant reapplication. It’s water-resistant and can only be removed abrasively or chemically, and will remain active as long as it’s exposed to light, water, and oxygen. If treated surfaces are painted over or covered, the protective benefits will no longer remain active.
Why TiCoat®?
TiCoat® Surface Protect is an innovative, safe, and sustainable solution with a one-step application process manufactured to last on surfaces. It offers superior surface protection, helping keep high-traffic areas in office and educational environments cleaner and smelling better.
Previous technology worked only with UV light, but TiCoat® works with any light source. It’s a long-lasting, fast-acting, self-cleaning surface coating that’s free of harmful chemicals. It dries clear on any surface, including fabric and solid surfaces, making it easier to maintain surface cleanliness and actively remove toxic residues left behind by normal cleaning procedures.
This contributes to lower cleaning product costs and can reduce cleaning time, costs, and labor by more than 20%.
Is TiCoat® safe?
Third party safety testing by Enviro-Chem Labs in California found TiCoat® 100% safe. It’s at seven on the pH scale – the same pH as water. It has no VOCs or SVOCs, contains no harmful metals, and is not harmful to aquatic life.
It is water-based and a better option for sustainability and efficiency. TiCoat® is slip resistant and food contact safe, meaning it will not transfer from surface to food. It has been rigorously tested and approved by Green Seal, and is a PFAS-free technology. TiCoat® is also certified Clean Air Gold and made in the USA.
Many commonly used cleaners are toxic and require rinsing with water after application. According to the EPA, indoor concentrations of some pollutants have increased in recent decades – cleaning supplies, paints, insecticides, and other commonly used products introduce many different chemicals, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), directly into the indoor air.
Indoor air pollutants can contribute to various health effects, including:
- Eyes, nose, and throat irritation
- Headaches, dizziness, and fatigue
- Respiratory diseases, heart disease, and cancer
TiCoat® reduces toxicity by breaking down harmful residues left behind by these chemicals, contributing to a safer office or learning environment.
How do I get TiCoat®?
TiCoat® Surface Protect is available in the USA and by shipment internationally directly through TiCoat® approved distributors and certified installers. Please contact us for more information.
TiCoat® Certified Installers are available regionally and will treat surfaces in minutes using a standard air compressor and spray gun. If your organization has staff or a preferred service provider, TiCoat® can readily arrange for certification training. The process consists of both classroom and hands-on training, which typically takes one day.
How much TiCoat® do I need?
The amount of TiCoat® Surface Protect needed depends on the square footage of the area to be treated and the type of surface material. On a non-porous surface, like painted surfaces, one gallon of TiCoat® is estimated to cover approximately 4,500 square feet of surface area. On a porous surface, such as a raw concrete floor or brick wall, a gallon is estimated to cover approximately 2,500 square feet of surface area.
