Global Needs Inspire Antibacterial Innovation

CHALLENGE

The more we know about the germs and bacteria that exist in the world around us, the better we can innovate to solve the share of problems that plague humans worldwide. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, we quickly realized the need to deliver longer-lasting protection from germs and viruses with 24-hour surface antibacterial protection.

SOLUTION

Combining knowledge across scientific disciplines, our experts worked to combine the Microban 24 antibacterial technology with a proprietary polymer that keeps the active ingredient on the applied surface. In the same way a time-release medication releases its dose a little at a time, Microban 24 releases a small amount of its active ingredient to provide 24-hour protection from germs and viruses—including those that cause the flu and COVID-19.
