BIRMINGHAM, Mich., June 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- BELFOR Holdings Inc. (BELFOR), the worldwide leader in property restoration and disaster recovery, today announced that it has entered into a strategic partnership with ViaClean Technologies, a biotech company that develops, manufactures and markets environmentally responsible solutions that protect surfaces, to offer a groundbreaking cleaning solution to businesses and facilities in the United States and Canada.

As a result of the exclusive partnership in the restoration and disaster recovery segment, and in an effort to advance the reopening of America, BELFOR will supply its network of customers with ViaClean Technologies’ proprietary BIOPROTECTUs™ System that incorporates the BIOPROTECT™ antimicrobial – a surface protectant against microbiological contamination on surfaces for up to 90 days. BELFOR will be the only restoration services partner to offer the BIOPROTECTUs™ System throughout the United States. Additionally, BELFOR has secured licensing to provide the same technology to the Canadian marketplace.

“The challenge with most cleaning protocols today is that common surfaces, or touch-points, are cleaned with disinfectants – these products leave behind no effective residual protection and within hours of disinfection, bacteria can grow exponentially,” said BELFOR CEO Sheldon Yellen. “As more commercial businesses and institutions search for the right cleaning protocol to keep their facilities safe, this is an absolute game changer and we are pleased to be able to offer this patented technology to our customers and help reopen the United States and Canada.”

The BIOPROTECTUs™ System encompasses an array of EPA registered and FDA compliant technologies that disinfect surfaces and spaces as well as provide long-term antimicrobial protection. Extensive laboratory testing has established and corroborated that the BIOPROTECTUs™ System, when applied to both porous and non-porous surfaces, quickly eliminates and provides long-term eradication and suppression of harmful germs and microorganisms for up to 90 days.

“We are thrilled BELFOR has selected the BIOPROTECTUs™ System to safeguard its customer facilities across the U.S. in order to provide peace of mind for those facility employees,” said Jim Young, Founder and Executive Chairman of ViaClean Technologies. “Our partnership with BELFOR is integral to expanding the delivery of the BIOPROTECTUs™ System across the US and further, ensuring the optimal performance of our treatments.”
