Hydrotect Technology

Worlds first invention

Coat with an ultra-thin layer of hydrophilic catalyst anti-fogging self-cleaning

Its like photosynthesis photocatalyst works with light Titanium oxide (TiO2)

Hydro Tect Technology

The photocatalyst decomposes various organic substances, which prevent the growth of bacteria and germs, dirt retention and malodor.

Water on the surface spreads as a thin layer between the surface and the dirt, which eventually floats on the water. The dirt is easily washed away by the flow of water.
