Is anyone using the antimicrobial compound today?
Yes, the antimicrobial compound has been used in Japan for about eight years in paints, flooring, kitchenware and various other consumer products. In the United States, this antimicrobial product is being used in footwear, water bottles, clothing and medical applications. Steel coils with an epoxy coating incorporating the antimicrobial compound are now available. SilverGuard antimicrobial pre-coated steel ductwork from McGill AirFlow is the first such product available in the U.S.
