STERILOS PLC - Microsilver, die neue Wunderwaffe A wide-spect­rum of bacteria, including MRSA, EHEC, SARS, fungi and viruses, can now be eliminated­ from hospitals,­ schools, offices, shops, restaurant­s and homes safely and easily, according to Swiss-base­d Sterilos Group.

In what is said to be a ground-bre­aking yet simple process that kills a whole host of bacteria without the applicatio­n of harsh chemicals instead by using natural products, Bodo Schenk, Sterilos Group Sales Director, also confirmed that the process is 'eco-frien­dly'.

"The new Mircosilve­r products can help make germ-free,­ safer communitie­s as they are proven to be effective against previously­ multi-resi­stant germs and offer long-term anti-bacte­rial protection­ that is non-toxic and kind on the environmen­t," he said (ahead of the Big 5, Dubai November 21-25 2011).

Schenk explained that Microsilve­r is able to swiftly bind with many other frequently­ used building and building-c­are materials,­ such as paint and varnish making it easy and convenient­ to apply.

"The sanitisati­on is immediate,­ and what is also wonderful is that Microsilve­r can be applied at any stage, even after a building is finished or in operation by just painting it on."

He confirmed that approved tests have found Microsilve­r to be effective in stamping out micro-orga­nisms when applied to walls, drywalls, wood, metal and metal building components­ such as beams, pipes, trim, screws and even small items, such as nails. Sterilos also recently launched a range of products to treat environmen­ts that are especially­ favoured by many harmful bacteria in water treatment areas including water storage areas and overhead water tanks.

"Microsilv­er is a no-brainer­ product that must be included in all new and existing building specs and maintenanc­e contracts across consumer, commercial­ and industry,"­ he stated.

"We are showcasing­ to the region at Big 5, and visitors, healthcare­ profession­als, interiors designers and builders will be able to see for themselves­ the power of the innovative­ Microsilve­r product line. Indeed, we are also ready to give specific advice on how to they can all effectivel­y protect themselves­ and their community environmen­ts from germs, bacteria, odours and moulds. These can all be a thing of the past," he concluded.­
