Antimicrobial technology for aviation

Whether it's the middle of a pandemic or not you might still wonder how clean your airplane really is.

When most commercial planes hold between 150 and 350 passengers and schedules are usually tight, some parts of the plane are going to be dirtier than others.

In-between flights, the airline staff do a quick cleanup of the cabin. But this cleanup primarily looks for removing rubbish and a possible wipe down of the seats. They don't have the time to sanitise everything in between boardings.

Since the onset of the COVID-19 in 2020 we have been working with the aviation sector to help prevent the spread of bacteria and viruses on anything from aircraft seats, tables and walls, helping millions of people to fly more safely.

Biomaster antimicrobial technology is proven to inhibit the growth of microbes by up to 99.99% and is also highly effective against inactivating viruses on surfaces such as textiles, paper and plastic.

When microbes land on an untreated surface they can easily contaminate the next person that touches that product. However, if they land on an antimicrobial protected surface, silver ions in Biomaster inhibit the growth of bacteria and deactivate viruses, significantly reducing the risk of cross contamination.

Biomaster is extremely versatile as it can be built into the manufacturing process, applied to existing surfaces via air cured coating or can be sprayed onto textiles.

We can offer an immediate solution for airlines, whilst also potentially becoming an important production partner for manufacturers to the sector.

Regular cleaning is vital, but Biomaster can be a very powerful ally in protecting passengers when in contact with surfaces.

How Biomaster Works

Biomaster additives works to inhibit the growth of active bacteria

Biomaster can be added at any stage of the manufacturing process and is available in masterbatch, liquid or powder formulations for plastics, textiles, paper and coatings to treat almost any facet of the flying experience from airport security trays and aeroplane tables and seats to in flight reading materials that could pose a threat of cross-contamination.

When bacteria come into contact with a Biomaster protected surface, the active antimicrobial agent prevents them from growing, producing energy or replicating, inhibiting any further growth.

The controlled release of the active ingredient provides powerful, effective antimicrobial protection for the lifetime of the product.

Independent testing and free of charge samples

Highly effective at low addition rates, Biomaster has been tested in hundreds of applications to provide up to 99.99% reduction against harmful bacteria including MRSA, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, VRE, Norovirus and Feline Conavirus.
