Antimicrobial Technologies for More Sustainable Plastics

As the global leader in antimicrobial and odor control solutions, Microban technologies enhance thousands of plastic products around the globe. The research and development team at Microban International are experts in the field of plastic sustainability and have a sound understanding of how microbial growth can shorten the lifespan of polymer articles.

Built-in antimicrobials are helping to preserve the aesthetic properties of plastic products by preventing the uncontrolled growth of bacteria, mould and mildew. This added level of product protection is reducing the risk of surface staining, bad odors and premature product degradation - meaning a plastic product is less likely to end up in the garbage.
