Nanoshield technology destroys virus, bacteria on high-touch surfaces

Nanoshield has introduced a clear plastic film that can be used on a variety of surfaces, such as digital screens, mobile phones and other frequently touched surfaces that can destroy viruses and bacteria 24/7 for up to 12 months, according to a press release.

The self-disinfecting technology is available in a PET or PVC film that can be custom sized and applied to a variety of surfaces. The film can be applied to commonly touched surfaces and devices such as point-of-sale terminals, vending machines and high contact and high touch points in public areas to diminish viruses and bacteria by up to 99.99%.

Nanoshield PET or PVC film contains a substrate with a special resin layer with an active copper component. The nano-copper reacts in three different ways to kill germs – as a positive ion, they attach to bacteria and viruses they attach to the outside structure altering them and stopping the way they work, combined with oxygen they form a chemical substance called reactive oxygen species, damaging both the proteins and nucleic acids in viruses and bacteria.
