Keyboards with Anti-Microbial effect

Thanks to the market introduction of a new and unique anti-microbial PET foil Mekoprint electronics is proud to introduce our long recognized front foils and membrane keyboards now with built-in Microban® Antimicrobial protection preventing the growth of potentially harmful bacteria, mould and mildew.

When superior Hygiene is essential

The issues of cleanliness and hygiene are of paramount importance in many applications, particularly for hospitals and the food processing industry. Research has proven that hand contact with contaminated surfaces can rapidly transfer bacteria to other surfaces as well as individuals. Under right conditions some microbes can double every 15-20 minutes!

Proven and long lasting effect

The polyester material has been extensively tested by independent Laboratories and has proven to inhibit the growth of a wide range of bacteria, fungi and moulds including MRSA, Salmonella Enteritidis, Escherichia Coli and Listeria Monocytogenes. Ageing and mechanical stress tests have proven the antimicrobial effect to be fully sustained throughout the lifetime of the PET material.
