Are MicroGuard antimicrobial copper alloys expensive?
No, in fact, the life cycle cost alone makes MicroGuard materials a bargain for healthcare facilities and other public buildings. Initial cost, cleaning, and the life expectancy of the product must be evaluated as well as the salvage value of MicroGuard materials. MicroGuard alloys are inherently recyclable and retain most of the primary metal cost. When compared to other interior touch surface materials such as stainless steel or aluminum, MicroGuard is very cost competitive.
