Bio Composites PlusAntimicrobial Protection Beyond Reproach
Trusted antimicrobial technology

The BioCote® brand is your reassurance of safe, effective antimicrobial technology.


All BioCote® protected products are independently tested and certified, reaching the highest antimicrobial performance standards.
 
Long-lasting
Once added at the manufacturing stage, BioCote® antimicrobial additives provide continuous and durable surface protection: they do not wear off or wash away. As silver does not break down, BioCote® antimicrobial additives will not leach from the surface of treated products, retaining their antimicrobial performance for the expected lifetime of the product. The efficacy of BioCote® has been proven in accelerated lifecycle tests by an independent laboratory.
 
Safe
Silver technology has a low toxicity and is therefore a safe and natural alternative to synthetic (organic) chemical antimicrobials.
 
Simple
BioCote® antimicrobial additives will not affect the aesthetics of products apart from imparting antimicrobial properties. Treated products will require no additional or specialist cleaning or maintenance.
 
Quality
The BioCote® team work closely with our partners to ensure all products carrying the BioCote® brand provide the highest level of antimicrobial protection. All antimicrobial additives used by BioCote Ltd meet the required regulatory standards across the world.
 
All BioCote® protected products are validated and quality control tested to ISO 22196:2007 where applicable, in an independent laboratory. Only products that reach a 95% reduction in bacteria are allowed to use the BioCote® brand as a guarantee of superior antimicrobial protection.
 
Evidence-based
BioCote Ltd understands the need for antimicrobial products to be as effective in situ as in a laboratory test and is leading the way in developing a sound evidence-base to show how our products can reduce levels of bacterial contamination in real-life environments.
