Though we like to think of paint as something that only protects walls and makes them aesthetically pleasing, it can also help protect the health of those living within those walls. Royale Health Shield, an anti-bacterial paint by `Asian Paints` is inspired by the same idea.

The paint kills 99% of infection causing bacteria* on walls. With Royale Health Shield, `Asian Paints` is reaching out to consumers who are increasingly conscious about their health. This awareness extends to not just the food items they consume but also the kind of environment they live in.

Walls often become a harbour for dangerous bacteria, leading to the spread of diseases in homes.Royale Health Shield is equipped with Silver Ion Technology that curtails the growth of such bacteria. Within 2 hours of exposure on painted surfaces, the revolutionary paint kills infection causing bacteria. This reduces the risk of respiratory infections and skin sensitization. Royale Health Shield is the first paint in India with Silver Ion Technology recommended by the Indian Medical Association.

Additionally, the paint is able to neutralize indoor air pollutants like formaldehyde. At a time when consumers are increasingly finding ways to minimise their exposure to indoor and outdoor pollution, Royale Health Shield offers a very helpful proposition.

The paint also has a luxurious sheen finish that gives a pleasant glow to the walls. It is available in more than 2000 shades! For those worried about household stains ruining the look, the Teflon surface coating makes it possible to wash away the toughest stains.
