About Antimicrobial Products
Good and bad bacteria are everywhere and Healthcare Associations across the globe are introducing antimicrobial ranges to help reduce the risk of infectious diseases and create safer healthcare environments. As part of our ongoing commitment to developing innovative healthcare solutions, Con-Serv has introduced a range of Antimicrobial products to support this growing need.
What does Antimicrobial mean?
Antimicrobial literally means “active against microbes” and can be defined as something that can resist, inhibit and prevent the growth of microbes including bacteria and mould.
In developing our Antimicrobial healthcare range, antimicrobial additives have been infused into the product material during the manufacturing process. These additives work to attack the bacteria cell wall, interrupt cell metabolism, and prevent bacteria reproduction extending the product's hygienic properties and minimising the potential of cross-contamination.
