What is Antimicrobial Technology?
Antimicrobial: adjective | an·ti·mi·cro·bi·al – Destroying or inhibiting the growth of microorganisms and especially pathogenic microorganisms.
Antimicrobial technology can be defined as a substance that works to destroy or inhibit the growth and reproduction of bacteria, mold, and mildew.
Unlike disinfectants, which provide a limited residual activity, integrated antimicrobial technology, such as our Microbe-Safe™ additive, works to continuously reduce the number of microbes on your artificial grass throughout its expected lifecycle.
What is an Antimicrobial Additive?
An antimicrobial additive is a substance that contains an appropriately registered antimicrobial agent.
Integrated into our turf products during the manufacturing process, an antimicrobial additive such as Microbe-Safe™ will provide around-the-clock product protection from the growth of microbes including bacteria, fungi, and algae.
Additive formulations are based on a series of factors including target material and production processes.
Built-in antimicrobial additives will remain present and active for the expected lifetime of a turf product.
Microbe-Safe™ Antimicrobial Protection
Microbe-Safe™ antimicrobial protection works at a cellular level to continually disrupt the growth and reproduction of microorganisms that contaminate treated turf products. The technology operates a multi-modal attack by damaging the protein, cell membrane, DNA, and internal systems of a microbe, causing it to die.
What Are The Benefits Of Antimicrobial Turf Products?
Equipping turf products with antimicrobial protection has many benefits for consumers. Overall, our aim is to protect, extend and elevate our treated turf products.
Extends Life of Turf
Microbe-Safe™ works to minimize damaging microbial growth on your turf, reducing the risk of premature product degradation.
Kills Bacteria
The multi-modal action of antimicrobial technology means bacteria struggle to survive when they interact with a treated product.
Keeps Turf Cleaner
Microbe-Safe™ continuously challenges the ability of microbes to survive, helping your turf to remain cleaner in-between cleanings.
Reduced Cross-Contamination Risk
The reduced microbial load means that your turf is less likely to aid the transfer of degrading microbes from surface to surface.
Keeps Turf Fresher
Microbe-Safe™ actively inhibits the growth of stain and odor-causing bacteria, ensuring your product stays cleaner and fresher for longer.
Fights Mold & Mildew Growth
Microbe-Safe™ antimicrobial protection will work to inhibit the growth of unsightly mold and mildew on your artificial turf product.
