Self-Cleaning, Air-Purifying Surfaces

In a world where cleanliness, sustainability, and passenger experience are more important than ever, Fleetshield® PURETi Nano Mesh Technology offers a game-changing solution. This cutting-edge innovation transforms vehicle interiors and exteriors of trains, buses, trams, coaches into surfaces that work for you:

✅ Creating ultra-hydrophilic surfaces that stay cleaner, longer
✅ Actively breaking down bacteria, viruses, and odors
✅ Reducing nitrogen oxides (NOₓ) and fine particles in the environment

Why Choose Fleetshield® PURETi Nano Mesh Technology?

  • Self-Cleaning Effect

Thanks to its superhydrophilic properties, water spreads evenly across the surface, helping dirt and grime wash away naturally while reducing the need for frequent cleaning and chemical use.

  • Bacteria, Virus, and Odor Breakdown

The nano mesh actively breaks down harmful microorganisms and neutralizes unpleasant smells, making vehicles more hygienic and pleasant for passengers and staff.

  • Air Purification & Environmental Impact

Independent research (EU Horizon 2020 iSCAPE project) shows that PURETi-treated surfaces can cut NOₓ emissions by up to 40%, directly contributing to cleaner urban air and measurable ESG outcomes.

 

Fleetshield® PURETi Works On

  • Glass, metal, plastic, fabric, film, painted surfaces

  • Exterior panels, windows, interior walls, seats, trash bins, and more

  • Both new and refurbished vehicles

Tested. Certified. Trusted Worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • 1. What is PURETi mesh?
    PURETi mesh is a water-based solution composed of 99% water and 1% nano Mineral Oxide Mix (MOM). It forms a thin, durable, and clear mineral film that uses photocatalysis to break down pollutants like NOx, VOCs, and SOx into harmless substances, purifying the air and maintaining cleaner surfaces.
     

  • 2. How does PURETi Mesh work? When exposed to light, the MOM in PURETi activates a photocatalytic process that decomposes harmful organic and inorganic pollutants. This also makes surfaces superhydrophilic, allowing water to sheet off and carry away dirt.

3. Is PURETi Mesh safe?
Yes, PURETi is safe for humans and animals:

  • •FDA recognizes MOM as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS).
  • •Certified by the National Sanitation Foundation for surface contact.
  • •The European Science Commission and NIOSH confirm safety in application and use.
     
  • 4. How long does PURETi last?
    PURETi Mesh forms a robust, tightly bound film that remains effective indefinitely under light exposure, as the MOM is not consumed in the process. It remains functional unless physically abraded or painted over.
     

5. What are the key benefits of PURETi Mesh?

  • Air Purification: Reduces pollutants like NOx, VOCs, and PM2.5.
  • Self-Cleaning: Superhydrophilic properties prevent dirt build-up and fogging.
  • Sustainability: Reduces maintenance needs and environmental impact.
