Independent testing performed at ATS Labs, an internationally recognized antimicrobial testing laboratory, demonstrated that PerfectClean with Micrillon wipers eliminated biological contaminants in a very short time. This promising technology has the potential to impact disinfection practices in the healthcare market.

Micrillon's “rechargeable” technology will be integrated into PerfectClean products, creating an efficient and effective solution for hospitals looking to reduce infection rates and improve patient care. Surface contaminants are removed, absorbed and trapped by the fibers, eliminating up to 99.999% of organic matter, endotoxins and pathogens such as MRSA, H1N1 and e. coli. PerfectClean textiles are recharged each time they are commercially laundered and the antimicrobial powers remain effective for the life of the product.

PerfectClean micro-denier products are high-performance textiles that are extremely effective at all points of contact including bed rails, curtain pulls, floors, tabletops, door knobs, remote controls, light switches, computer keyboards and monitors. The products are color-coded for ease-of-use in selecting the right product for the appropriate task.
