Safeguard Antimicrobial Coating
Our Safeguard Antimicrobial Coating products feature a proprietary patented antimicrobial additive called Safeguard. The technology is centered on silver-functionalized clay particles that create a highly effective and naturally sourced product that ensures optimal and long-lasting protection against the growth of microbes that can lead to foul odors, discoloration, and formation of biofilms such as mold, mildew, and slime.

How Does it Work?
Silver is a chemical element that contains properties that naturally act as a broad-range antimicrobial agent proven effective against mitigating the effects of harmful molds and bacteria present in our everyday life. Treated surfaces using ionic silver technologies inhibits the growth of these microorganisms through three different mechanisms:
Cellular membrane destruction
DNA replication inhibitors (protein synthesis interference)
Cellular respiration block (cell wall synthesis)

How Antimicrobial Coatings Can Help
An antimicrobial coating is a surface covering that contains an active ingredient making it effective against bacterial and fungal growth. The use of a dependable and durable antimicrobial coating can provide residual surface protection inhibiting microbial contamination and supplementing proper hygiene and cleaning practices Ionic silver is added during the manufacturing process of the coating allowing it to act on the surface of treated articles or materials to avoid the proliferation of microorganisms and offering safe and continuous protection.
Protecting Surfaces from Microbial Growth
Our products feature silver ion antimicrobial technology. The silver particles are the active ingredient that is suspended in our coatings and when incorporated into our coatings, they are released to the surface of the protected material at a controlled rate. The controlled release rate ensures greater surface uniformity and long-lasting antimicrobial effect when compared to other additives that feature similar technology. Therefore, our products are ideally suited for long-term applications. While durability in most cases depends on wear and tear and environmental conditions, the antimicrobial performance can be expected to endure for several years.
