Benefits of Antimicrobial Technology
Antimicrobial additives are extremely diverse and control microbes via many different means. When used in the manufacture of products they create surfaces and materials inhospitable to microbes such as bacteria and mould. Find out more about how BioCote® additives work.

Protected vs Unprotected Surface: 2h Time Lapse
UNPRPOTECTED SURFACE
On an untreated surface, the bacteria thrive and reproduce considerably.
PROTECTED SURFACE
On a BioCote® treated surface, the bacteria cannot survive and reduce by up to 99.5%.

Reduce
microbes by up to 99.99%
BioCote® works continuously to reduce the amount of microbes on a treated surface

Proven
against mould growth
BioCote® creates products upon which unsightly and unpleasant mould such as Aspergillus niger cannot survive

Reduce
cross-contamination
A cleaner product means less microbes to transfer, ultimately reducing the potential for cross-contamination from one surface to another

Stay
fresh for longer
Less microbes means reduced potential for staining and unpleasant odours, making your product stay fresher for longer periods

Extend
a product’s lifetime
Lasting BioCote® surface protection against microbial colonisation also minimises material degradation, ultimately extending the lifetime of the product
