Anti-Microbial Material
Anti-microbial material is a type of fabric or surface that is treated or infused with substances that inhibit the growth and spread of microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. This includes materials like copper, silver, and certain types of plastics and fabrics which have undergone special treatment.
The antimicrobial substances either kill the microorganisms or prevent their growth and reproduction. These materials are commonly used in various settings that require high standards of cleanliness and health safety such as medical facilities, food processing plants, bathrooms, and even in everyday products like clothing, bedding, and kitchenware.
Anti-microbial materials can help to prevent the spread of diseases and infections, reduce odors caused by bacteria, and extend the life of products by preventing degradation caused by microorganisms.
