Hospital acquired infections are the
fourth largest cause of death in U.S…
Deadly Admissions: Hospital-Acquired Infections Are 4th-Largest Killer in U.S.,
But Ohioans Cannot Get Statistics to Compare Facilities
By Tracy Wheeler, The Akron Beacon Journal, Ohio
Jan. 9--But for 20 million Americans each year -- about one in every 10 to 20
patients -- a trip to the hospital results in dangerous, lingering infections, whether
through surgery, dialysis, ventilators, IVs, or catheters.
At an estimated 90,000 deaths a year, these hospital-acquired infections kill as
many people in the United States as AIDS, breast cancer and car accidents
combined.

The issue is significant and actions are being taken
Timing is right
The Problem
Value Proposition: Safety and Economics
Healthcare related organizations develop more stringent standards:
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) puts out “Guidelines for Disinfection and
Sterilization in Healthcare Facilities, 2008” outlining
• Harsher disinfection chemicals
• More frequent cleaning
The Joint Commission (TJC) incorporates tougher disinfection protocols in
their guides for high risk environments in hospitals such as emergency and
operating rooms, trauma bays, procedure rooms.
The Result: Traditional wall paints are not holding up long term to the increased
scrubbing and harsher chemicals

The Problem
Value Proposition: Safety and Economics
Meanwhile, insurers recognize the issue and take action:
Medicare changes their insurance protocols:
• As of January 2009, will not pay for Hospital Acquired Infections (HAI)
• Treatment costs will belong to the hospital
Soon after, most major medical insurers follow
The Result: Hospitals enact increased preventative measures to greatly
reduce the chance for HAI for patient safety and economic viability

Defining the Problem
Multiple Points in the Value Chain
To define the unmet need, we engaged stakeholders:
•
•
•
•
•
Hospital Facility Managers
Architect/Spec Writers
Hospital Administrators
Painting Contractors
Hospital Accreditation Organizations
And listened to how they defined the problem
Page 8
Research from Key Hospital Personnel
Goal: Reduce repaint cycle, keep areas safe, save money
After listening, we heard that they wanted:
• A more durable, scrubbable wall coating in the high risk areas
• A very low odor coating that would not disrupt operations
• ‘Warmer’ eggshell or matte coatings but still have durability
• An easier to clean and seamless surface
• Less downtime in these high operating cost areas
• To use their in-house painters more on patient rooms and hallways

The Value Proposition
From the Hospital’s Point of View
For the hospital administrator who is concerned with meeting the CDC
protocols without sacrificing aesthetics and durability, a new high
durability coating technology has been developed for rooms requiring
frequent cleaning that offers improved durability and resistance to harsh
cleaners and disinfectants without sacrificing appearance.
Compared with conventional wall paint:
• 4x more durable and scrub-able
• Same ease of use, color palette, and
low gloss finish
Compared to tile:
• 4-5x lower cost
• Better design latitude for future color
schemes

The HD Wall Coating Technology
Architectural Wall Paint Alternative
Two Component Waterborne Polyurethane Technology
Built on Bayer’s HD Wall Coating Technology
Attributes:
•
•
•
•
•
•
High Durability even in an eggshell or flat finish
‘Silky’ surface makes cleaning easier
Excellent chemical and disinfectant resistance
Very low odor during installation and drying
Ultra low VOC and solvent at 15g/l or less

The Technology
2K Waterborne Coatings
Waterborne Technologies:
• 2K chemistry with excellent
overall properties
“Water is Green”
• Early “waterborne” coatings had as much as 300g/l of co-solvent
• New commercial systems are now at 0-15 g/L
• Offer viable replacement products to solventborne epoxy or polyurethane
systems
The Technology
2K Waterborne Coatings
