SANIGUARD
SANIGUARD® is a built-in antimicrobial treatment for metal and plastic products and coatings. When microbes come into contact with a treated product surface, SANIGUARD’s inorganic, silver ion technology actively inhibits their growth by hindering cell wall transmissions, disrupting cell metabolism, and interfering with cellular reproduction. SANIGUARD is effective against most common bacteria, yeasts, molds, and fungi that cause stains, odors, and product deterioration. In addition, SANIGUARD makes products easier to clean and keeps them cleaner and fresher between cleanings. SANIGUARD is based on antimicrobial Type AJ10D, which US EPA has registered for use in a variety of products and coatings (EPA Reg. No. 71227-1-72854). SANIGUARD may be applied as a powder coating to metal substrates or mixed with plastic resins for extruding and injection molding. SANIGUARD can be cost-effectively applied to many plumbing and hardware components. SANIGUARD is built in to products during the manufacturing process and will not wash off or wear away. Under normal cleaning conditions, SANIGUARD will provide continuous antimicrobial product protection for the useful life of the product. SANIGUARD is not a disinfectant and does not protect users against food-borne or disease-causing microorganisms. Users should continue to maintain proper cleaning and hygienic practices.
