ZeroFly® Shelter - Working Principle

ZeroFly® Shelter is constructed of a woven centre fabric, with lamination on both sides. Insecticide is incorporated in the woven centre fabric.

The insecticide will over time migrate through the laminates to the surface of the plastic sheeting, giving the product vector control abilities. In the lamination there are several UV protectors, some of which protect the insecticide and others that protect the plastic material.

In the lamination there are chemicals that control the migration of the insecticide, leading to a slow release and securing an adequate concentration of insecticide on the surface at all times.

The UV protectors that protect the insecticide have the ability to migrate with the insecticide to prevent degradation throughout the migration process.

UV Protection System

• UV protection system with dual action
• Protects the plastic material
• Protects the insecticide

Insecticide with Migration Inhibitors

• The natural migration speed of insecticide is too fast
• Migration inhibitors reduce the speed of migration
• Result is "controlled release"

Insecticide Migrating from Centre Weave

• Insecticide is stored in the centre weave
• Insecticide migrates to the surface when needed
• Is well protected against sunlight
• Prolongs active period of the shelter for up to 9–12 months
