Where Can The GERMGUARD Treatment Program Be Used?
The active ingredient used in the GERMGUARD Program is currently used by major brands across the globe in everything from medical textiles, sports equipment and touch screens, to building products, and much more.
With a long history of proven effectiveness in microbial control, the active ingredient used in our GERMGUARD Program is the standard in antimicrobial treatments.
To learn more about how and where our GERMGUARD Program can be used, click on one of the following applications:
1. Textiles
Textiles, such as bed linens and hockey equipment, provide the perfect place for germs and microbes to live and reproduce. Signs of microbial growth on textiles include odors, staining, and deterioration. By treating your textiles with the GERMGUARD Program you will get no odor from microbial growth during exercise, no odor formation during storage while waiting for laundry day, no odor during long periods of storage, and no odor or microbial contamination while it hides under your child’s bed or in your college students dorm room.
Along with no odor, there is no discoloration, fading or degradation due to microbial growth feasting. Your product remains fresh and stays looking newer longer.
Used Across the Globe by Brands You Trust
GERMGUARD Program is used by major brands across the globe on textile items ranging from socks to medical garments to hockey gear.
2. Residential and Commercial Building Products
Demand for mould-resistant building products is growing at a dramatic rate, as home buyer awareness and concern about mould and mildew continue to increase.
Every element of the construction process offers opportunity for microbial growth. Warm temperatures, moisture and an adequate food source provide the perfect environment for mould to thrive. Unless protected, damp structures will be attacked by fungi (mould). As the microbes develop, they spread throughout walls and over interior surfaces.
If mould and mildew are not controlled in the construction process, they can cause significant problems for both the structure and its occupants.
The Hidden Advantage
GERMGUARD Program remains permanently affixed to the surface to which it is applied. It modifies the surface and works as a physical control.
Unlike conventional technologies, this organofunctional silane technology is not consumed by the microorganism and does not move off the surface. The GERMGUARD Program can easily benefit construction materials to control algal and fungal growth on OSB, plywood, ceiling tiles, flooring, and more.
Building Products and Healthcare
For more than 30 years, GERMGUARD Program has been an industry leader in safe and effective microbial protection for medical textiles, indoor environments and, now, storage and work surfaces. Since it does not leach to control microbial growth, it does not create the environment for adaptation and will not move onto you, your patients or into the environment.
Benefits of the GERMGUARD Program include creating a more pleasant environment by controlling odour, staining and deterioration caused by mould, mildew and other microbial organisms. This technology stays where it is put and has a physical mode of action.
- Hospital tested and proven with over 30 years use
- Durable, long-lasting antimicrobial protection
- Reduces cost
- Improves patient and staff confidence
3. Infection Control
Healthcare facilities, by the very nature of their operation, expose patients and staff to microbial contamination that can lead to infectious disease.
Flooring, doorknobs, curtains, cabinets and the “forgotten” surfaces, such as walls, can potentially transfer contaminating organisms from surface to surface and person to person. Healthcare associated infections occur to approximately one in ten patients, resulting in higher treatment costs and increased potential for litigation.
Healthcare associated infections (HAI) are among the top ten causes of death in the United States. HAI is estimated to result in as many as 98,000 deaths each year at an annual cost of up to $29 billion.
Benefits of our GERMGUARD Program include controlling odour, staining and deterioration caused by mould, mildew and other microbial organisms, thereby creating a more pleasant environment. This technology stays where it is put and has its mode of action is physical, not chemical.
