ABOUT US

Originally developed in the 1970's, the AEGIS Microbe Shield technology is the world's first antimicrobial for the treatment of goods which is odorless, colorless, non-leaching, long-lasting and effective against fungi, bacteria and algae. Because it does not dissipate, it retains its full antimicrobial strength for the life of the surface to which it is applied. It is durable for the products that protect you and less stress on the environment. Discover the difference!

The Core Technology

At a time when the only choice was leaching technologies based on metals and chemical reactions, a non-leaching, physical control with excellent durability was born. This unique technology quickly went into high performance application in medical textiles for use near wound sites. The potential to minimize contamination from surface bacteria and other microorganisms in healthcare facilities made the AEGIS Microbe Shield technology the antimicrobial of choice. Though various leaching technologies still exist in the market, there is one technology that stands alone as the most advanced antimicrobial in performance and safety: AEGIS MICROBE SHIELD.

Unlimited Performance. Unlimited Application.

Since its registration with the EPA in 1976, the use of the AEGIS technology has allowed protection claims with a wide variety of products. Everything from ceiling tiles to socks, from shirts to carpeting is protected by the AEGIS Microbe Shield. Even high performance applications such as surgical drapes where safety and performance are paramount, are successfully protected by the AEGIS Microbe Shield.
