Antimicrobial Treatment Technology

Our antimicrobial treatment provides continuous protection for up to 90 days under normal conditions. Factors that can affect longevity include the type of surface, frequency of cleaning, and environmental conditions. High-abrasion surfaces may require more frequent reapplication. We perform regular efficacy testing to verify continued protection and recommend a quarterly application schedule for most environments to maintain optimal protection levels. For high-risk or high-traffic areas, we may recommend more frequent applications based on your specific needs.

Yes, our antimicrobial treatment is safe for virtually all environments, including healthcare facilities, schools, food service establishments, and other sensitive settings. The technology is EPA-registered, non-toxic, and creates no harmful byproducts. The treatment is water-based, contains no heavy metals or VOCs, and leaves no harmful residue. Once dried and bonded to the surface, the antimicrobial layer is food-safe and approved for use on food contact surfaces. The mechanical mode of action means it doesn't leach or migrate, making it safe around people of all ages, including children and those with sensitivities to traditional disinfectants.

Our antimicrobial treatment can be applied to virtually any surface type, including hard non-porous surfaces like metals, plastics, glass, laminate, and coated woods, as well as soft porous surfaces like fabrics, carpets, and upholstery. The treatment is particularly effective on high-touch surfaces such as door handles, light switches, countertops, bathroom fixtures, elevator buttons, and shared equipment. It can also be applied to electronics (following specific application protocols), HVAC components to reduce mold and bacteria, and even textile materials like curtains and privacy screens. The versatility of our solution allows for comprehensive facility protection, creating a more holistic antimicrobial environment.

The application process involves several key steps for optimal effectiveness. First, our technicians thoroughly clean and disinfect all target surfaces to remove existing contaminants. Next, we apply our antimicrobial solution using electrostatic sprayers for maximum coverage on complex surfaces or manual application for targeted areas. The solution forms a molecular bond with the surface as it dries, creating the protective antimicrobial layer. This process typically takes 1-3 hours depending on facility size, with treated areas safe for use after 1-2 hours of drying time. Applications are typically scheduled during off-hours to minimize disruption, and we provide documentation and visible certification indicators upon completion. Regular efficacy testing can be performed to verify continued protection.

Traditional disinfectants provide only momentary protection—they kill existing microorganisms but offer no residual protection once they dry. Surfaces become vulnerable to recontamination almost immediately. Our antimicrobial treatment fundamentally differs by creating a persistent protective barrier that continuously eliminates pathogens for up to 90 days. While traditional disinfectants use chemical poisons that microbes can potentially develop resistance to, our technology uses a mechanical kill method—physically rupturing microbial cell membranes—which prevents resistance development. This approach dramatically reduces the frequency of disinfection cycles from multiple times daily to once every 90 days, lowering chemical usage and labor costs while providing superior protection between applications.
