When plastics come in close contact with humans, livestock, or raw foods, they can accumulate harmful germs that spread diseases and infections. These microbes find a conducive host in plastic surfaces to multiply and can be rapidly transferred across humans and animals alike. The consequences of these transmissions can range from the spread of common flu to deadly epidemics such as MRSA.
Some of the common carriers of such microbes are: Public:
Personal:
Consider a hospital environment - it is germ rich; the possibility of an infection spreading is high. Any masterbatch employed to control this spread should ideally satisfy three primary parameters:
At ALOK Technology Incubation Centre (ATIC), we have made strides in developing a masterbatch that prevents microbes from spreading and meets all of three aforementioned criteria.
Our Anti-Microbial Masterbatch, BactisafeTM, can be a definitive solution to sanitizing public and private spaces, including high contact areas such as the metro facilities, hospitals and hotels.
BactisafeTM antimicrobials are based on pure silver. Not so long ago, our elders ate their food in silver utensils as silver is the most potent & safe antimicrobial known to mankind. It is safe and non-toxic unlike many other chemically derived additives, which while being very effective, have toxicity issues and un-researched effects of the human and animal bodies. Bactisafe is an FDA compliant product and is widely accepted as a benchmark of safety.
