Antimicrobial technology for home & leisure

Although we might not be able to control our exposure to pathogenic bacteria whilst out and about, good hygiene can start right at home to reduce levels of these harmful, illness causing bacteria under your own roof.

The vast majority of bacteria found in the home are essential for our general health and wellbeing, so practicing targeted cleaning on surfaces and areas where harmful bugs can build up, such as bathroom fittings, kitchen surfaces and remote controls, can help to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

In addition to regular cleaning with detergents, disinfectants and other cleaning products, Biomaster adds a second level of protection where increased hygiene is key for reducing the bacterial load.

Antimicrobial technology for personal care products

As well as shared areas and items which can build up harmful levels of bacteria over time, personal care products can become contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus and its antibiotic resistant strain MRSA.

Hairbrushes, skincare products and other personal care items should be cleaned regularly to avoid any unwanted pathogens surviving and posing a risk of infection.

Incorporating Biomaster into bristles, handles, brush heads and other commonly used parts can inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria for the effective working life of the product, providing around the clock antimicrobial protection.

Antimicrobial technology for fabrics, textiles and clothing

Soft furnishings, upholstery and pet beds can be difficult to clean in domestic washing machines but can build-up unpleasant odours over time.

When applied as a topical treatment, Biomaster provides effective protection against harmful bacteria and viruses for textiles, making them more hygienic and reducing bad odours.

Treated fabrics needn’t be washed as often, saving water and energy, and the Biomaster antimicrobial additive stays active for around 3 months before re-application is required.

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.

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.
