Germ Guard
Germ Guard Anti-Microbial Additive is a silver ion based antimicrobial powder composite which when incorporated inside products, inhibits and destroys the growth of deadly bacteria, fungus, molds etc.
Features of Germ Guard Anti-Microbial Plastics Additive Masterbatch
- Inorganic in nature
- Wide spectrum of antimicrobial activity
- Highly Safe & Non-toxic
- Destroys 99.99% of bacteria
- Heat Stability upto 1300oC
- Permanent antimicrobial activity

How does Germ Guard works?
GermGuardTM uses precious metal nanoparticles in its product to attack the microbes. The product prepared using Germ Guard TM technology gives permanent antimicrobial activity.
Metal nanoparticles when comes in contact with the bacteria penetrates the cell wall, punctures the protoplasm and hence destroys its metabolism.
