The Copper Anti-Microbial film that destroys bacteria & viruses fast!
SafeTouch® is designed for application to high traffic touchpoints such as handles, railings, buttons and screens and can be used for stopping the spread of infection from hand to hand.
About SafeTouch®
What are Microbes?
Microbes are tiny living things (microorganisms) that are found all around us and are too small to be seen with the naked eye.
Some microbes make us sick, others are important for our health. The most common types are bacteria and viruses.
What is Antimicrobial Copper?
It is called ‘antimicrobial copper’ due to the antimicrobial power created naturally with a copper content of 60% or above.
It can effectively prevent infectious diseases and cross infections by acting on germs and viruses as well as being natural, strong, non-toxic and human-friendly.
SafeTouch®: Protection from Bacteria & Viruses
Antimicrobial Copper is the only touch surface material registered with the US Environmental Protection Agency, which kills more than 99.9% of bacteria. Copper alloys containing more than 60% copper, are natural antimicrobial agents and are very effective in preventing cross-contamination of infectious diseases.
In a study conducted by Southampton University researchers, human coronavirus 229E was rapidly inactivated on a range of copper alloys.
“Consequently, copper alloy surfaces could be employed in communal areas and at any mass gatherings to help reduce transmission of respiratory viruses from contaminated surfaces and protect the public health.”
