The BIOSAFE antimicrobial treatment enhances the functional capabilities of the medical mask, generating a long-lasting shield that greatly reduces the cross-contamination risk from touching the mask itself.
BIOSAFE is a water-based EPA-registered antimicrobial solution and when applied provides a safe, virucidal and bactericidal coating that is permanently bound to the medical mask.
