Antimicrobial Plastics

Technical overview:

Raw meat or unclean foods are most likely to breed E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus, which can cause serious harm to the human body. If we use antimicrobial packaging during food processing, we can hinder the growth of bacteria and food can be preserved longer. This product achieves this antimicrobial effect by adding/coating additives.

Applications

Antimicrobial wraps, plastic bags and food packaging.
