Shimi Afarin Shams Knowledge Based Company, relying on its technical, specialist and young team, has established a scientific complex on the development of construction products specially the production of dry mortars and constructional adhesives in appropriate with climatic conditions, observing environmental topics and to the satisfaction of the consumer. Currently, the company’s products are provided under the brand name of (SCENTUS); it strives to cover the region’s market by relying on up-to-date knowledge, experience and machinery in line with European standards.
The name Scentus is derived from the name of a bacterium called Crescentus. Recent studies on bacterial secretions show that the bacterium of caulobacter crescentus produces adhesives that are three times the strength of the world’s most commercially available adhesives. Caulobacter crescentus is an organism that colonizes in wet areas such as the body of ships, water pipes and even surgical catheters and withstands the very high pressure of water on the body of marine jets. The results of the scientists’ research show that this adhesive is a polymer of polysaccharides, which has the average force required to separate the bacteria from the polymer at 70 Newton / mm2, while the average force for the most potent commercial adhesives is 25 Newton / mm2.
This collection seeks to leverage world-class knowledge to enhance the quality of its current and future manufactured products in collaboration with major domestic and foreign research centers.
