Antimicrobial Copper CuLean®
Germs to include bacteria, viruses and fungi are everywhere and can survive on most surfaces for many months. Studies have shown that up to 80% of germs are transferred by touch, resulting in thousands of people getting sick each year, even in places they think are safe such as hospitals. To combat the transfer of germs, Black Iron Strength® offers CuLEAN® Antimicrobial Copper touch surfaces by CuVerro® on their products and equipment. It is simply the best material for all surfaces as bacteria cannot thrive or survive on it.
