Vetobac Antimicrobial Copper Touch Surface Products

Vetobac抗菌铜项目涉及与实验室和专业人员合作，制定测试参数和程序，并开展测试，以提供铜合金接触表面在杀死SARS-Cov-2病毒方面的抗菌功效的确凿证据。这将涉及在典型使用条件下进行试验，以提供证据，以提高公众对铜及其合金独特和持续的抗菌性能的认识。美国已经进行了一些测试，但测试条件不能准确反映湿和干状态下的实际使用条件。公共场所的触摸表面产品，如门把手、扶手、卫生间扶手和医院触摸表面，通常由不锈钢或其他金属或塑料表面制造。细菌和微生物可以在这些表面存活数天，并且很容易在使用者之间传播，包括卫生保健工作者、患者。众所周知，铜合金表面在杀死多种细菌和病毒方面非常有效，但由于使用这些材料生产产品所涉及的制造过程，这些产品对于日常使用来说过于昂贵。需要对制造过程进行详细的审查，以及模具和原型的生产，以便能够测试和评估产品的功能和美观的市场接受度以及长期维护。虽然大量的技术工作已经开展，但我们注意到需要一些激烈的营销活动来推广这一概念，并让公众接触到这些产品。我们建议引入网站改进，SEO，谷歌adwords和其他形式的数字和社交媒体营销来推广产品范围。

The Vetobac Antimicrobial Copper Project involves working with laboratories and professionals to set up test parameters and procedures and carrying out testing to give conclusive evidence of the antimicrobial efficacy of copper alloy touch surfaces in killing the SARS-Cov-2 virus. This would involve trials with typical use conditions to provide evidence that would promote general awareness of the unique and continuous antimicrobial properties of copper and its alloys. Some testing has already been carried out in the US but the test conditions do not accurately reflect actual use conditions in the wet and the dry state.Typically touch surface products in public areas such as door handles, handrails, washroom rails and hospital touch surfaces are manufactured from stainless steel or other metal or plastic surfaces. Bacteria and micro organisms remain alive on these surfaces for days and can easily be transferred between users including health care workers, patients. Copper alloy surfaces are known to be highly effective in killing a wide range of bacteria and viruses but these products become too expensive for every day use because of the manufacturing processes involved in producing the products with these materials. Detailed review of manufacturing processes is required along with production of dies and prototypes to be able to test and assess the the products for functionality and market acceptance aesthetically and longer term maintenance. Whilst a significant amount of technical work has already taken place we note that there needs to be some intense marketing activity to promote the concept and engage the public with access to these products. We are proposing to introduc website improvements, SEO, Google adwords and other forms of digital and social media marketing to promote the range of products.
