ANTIMICROBIAL PROTECTED PLASTIC KILLS HUMAN CORONAVIRUS AND COVID-19 IN INTERNATIONAL GOVERNMENT REGULATED TESTING, WHILE UNDERGOING TRIALS FOR EPA CERTIFICATION IN THE US
NEW YORK (September 8, 2021) – Under the direction of Europe’s Turkish Health Ministry, an organization similar to the United States' EPA, Silver Defender products have been shown to kill Human Coronavirus and COVID-19. This confirmation is a milestone for Silver Defender and its innovative clean technology – antimicrobial protected plastic that covers everything from door handles to ATM’s to bathroom faucets and grocery carts -- bringing the world one step closer to effectively controlling and stopping the spread of COVID-19.
These promising test results from Europe add confirmation to the performance of Silver Defender’s innovative clean technology, which support the company’s pesticide registration efforts in multiple countries. Subsequently, pesticide registration will permit Silver Defender and it’s valued customers to fully realize the value of these exciting products for safe work and living environments. Silver Defender’s products, meanwhile, continue to undergo testing for EPA certification, verifying the products’ efficacy in the U.S.
“I am thrilled to announce this news coming from Europe,” says Zeynep ‘Z’ Ekemen, Managing Partner of Silver Defender. “Unfortunately, COVID-19 is here to stay. These government tests show that we were able to kill COVID-19, while also killing 78% of Human Coronavirus in 5 minutes in their precursor tests. Going through this rigourous testing, Silver Defender is proud to continue to perform its mission, bringing a sense of normalcy to people and businesses around the world.” Adding, “What’s also interesting is that many technical acheivements in fighting COVID-19 seem to be coming from or tested in the same regions of Europe. The BioNTech-Pfizer vaccine was developed by the founders of BioNTech, a Turkish husband-and-wife team.”
The series of tests done on Silver Defender’s films for toxicology, as well as testing against Human Coronavirus and SARS-COV-2 were performed by the Antimikrop Laboratory in Ankara and the medical labs at Yeditepe University in Instanbul. These labs follow the same rigorous standards and procedures of top laboratories around the world in seeking governmental approval. Silver Defender will soon roll out their line of products within public and private spaces across their region of Europe and Asia. Specifically, the products will continuously clean surfaces that people touch throughout their day as they grab door handles, elevator buttons, handrails, credit card machines, in transportation hubs, schools, restaurants, businesses, grocery stores, and hospitals - essentially, in any public or private space.
Founded by three partners from New Jersey, Silver Defender’s non-toxic, antimicrobial protected films, use EPA approved technology and can be found in public, nonprofit and private entities in the United States, including airports, public transportation, retail locations, schools, hotels, government buildings and more. Notable customers include Bloomberg, NFL, MLB, HMS Host, Viacom CBS, Showtime, Sony, Clorox, Hilton, Paramount Studios, Long Island Macarthur Airport, the San Diego Zoo, and Silverstein Properties, including the World Trade Center in New York.
