Overview

According to World Health Organization, infection is the #1 cause of death worldwide and the #3 cause of death in the United States. Twenty-five years ago, 90% of infections could be controlled by antibiotics. Today that number is less than 50%. US News and World Report says $50 billion or more is spent each year by US businesses due to absenteeism. Today’s chemicals, disinfectants, and sterilants are causing microorganisms to mutate creating “superbugs”. Mold is now considered a greater threat than asbestos and is far more prevalent. The CDC tells us that 80% of infection is passed by human hands. Protectant nanotechnology represents a paradigm shift in chemical thinking. We offer the first safe and effective long-term antimicrobial protection. Touch-points & Microbial Attack Touch-points are places touched by several persons multiple times per day. Control of contamination and surface damage caused by bacteria, mold and mildew are a serious concern for the industry. Touch-Points (human contact), floors, ceilings, overhead pipes, passageways, process walls, and doors, are reservoirs for damaging bacteria. It is a known fact that these microbes can live on surfaces that appear to be clean. Microbial growth can be activated by high moisture or temperature elevations. Standard cleaning and sanitizing protocols are often ineffective in controlling the growth of these microorganisms. There are two problems that are often caused by common cleaning chemicals: The adaptive nature of microorganisms to chemical attack. These microbes are becoming increasingly more difficult to destroy. The surviving microbes begin reproducing rapidly. Chemical residues and dead microbes become a food source for new microbes to feed upon and grow exponentially. Here is how our technology works:
