Anti-Microbial & Anti-Bacterial Range
Archimedium has developed new antimicrobial textiles to reduce microbial acquisition and transmission.GO TO: PRODUCT RANGE
THE CHALLENGE
Antibiotic resistant pathogens once relegated to intensive care units and nursing homes are increasingly found in communities, schools and gyms worldwide. This means that the antibiotic resistant germs are coming into hospitals with the patients.
Healthcare workers move from patient to patient, frequently throughout the day as a result healthcare textiles such as scrub uniforms and lab coats becomes the highly mobile carriers of contamination. Several studies implicate contaminated clothing, curtains and linens as the source of infections and outbreaks.
THE SOLUTION
FULL RANGE OF PRODUCTS
Anti-Microbial Textile For Hospitals
100% Cotton Breathable Fabric i.e. 100% cotton dyed with Vat dyes, which withstand all hospital requirements like auto clave and other treatments
Best in class antibacterial protection – The antimicrobial property is permanently bonded and is durable for multiple washes. It gives more than 99.3 % antibacterial efficiency after 50 home laundries
Germ Free – The bio burden of the product at any given time is less than 20 cfu/100 SQ/cm. The product thus act as a barrier for any pathogen and keeps the surface area germ free.
Stain Release Property – Bedlinen is treated with fluorine free chemistry. Helps to release Stains like blood, Coffee and water base stains

Anti-Bacterial Plastics
Antimicrobial polymers or polymeric biocides armed with antimicrobial activity. They possess the ability to inhibit the growth of microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria or protozoans.
– Longer Life Expectancy: Antimicrobial additives have proven to increase the lifetime of plastics. It helps for minimizing the presence of bacteria that cause the plastic to degrade quickly.
– Prevent Biofilm Formation: Besides effectively preventing bacteria growth, antimicrobial plastics also prevent the formation of biofilms. Biofilm formation is quite common in plastic objects and surfaces. They can be defined as a community of microorganisms that have aggregated to form a colony.
