The silver antimicrobial technology keeping manufacturers safe during lockdown

The manufacturing industry has faced tough challenges this year to carry on operating in a safe and secure way. However, manufacturers have shown themselves to be highly skilled and resourceful professionals able to adapt quickly to a situation that has never been faced before. British manufacturer Veraco has produced a range of products for high-frequency touchpoints with silver antimicrobial technology applied. These have been designed for turnstiles, railings, handles, doors, buttons and many more helping the manufacturing industry create a hygienically safe environment.

They contain ‘Silver Ions’ that break down the biological makeup of dangerous pathogens, reducing up to 99.99% of common bacteria and superbugs on touch, as well as being effective against Coronavirus. Factories, warehouses and logistics centres are typically worker-dense but they have done a good job adapting their practices with staggered working, social distancing and cleaning. However, cleaning cannot be done after every touch so Veraco’s products provide a solution for doors and equipment that inevitably will be touched by different people in between cleaning.

Co-Founder George Strong said, “The response from the manufacturing sector to the new challenges they have faced has been amazing and we are thrilled that our products can play a vital role creating a safer working environment”

Veraco Limited is a specialist in the design and manufacturing of infection control products. They develop solutions that help reduce the risk and spread of dangerous pathogens to create a much safer, cleaner environment for hygiene zones.

Any frequently-touched surface has a huge risk of cross-contamination and it’s often unavoidable. We use silver technology that actively kills germs on touch. www.veraco.co.uk
