Antimocrobial copper in action

The process of bacteria on
K Copper Plus

A

Bacteria recognises copper ions as essential nutrients and absorbs them, the copper ions penetrates and causes cell damage.

B

The cell membrane ruptures because of Copper and other stress phenomena, leading to loss of membrane potential and Cytoplasmic content.

C

Copper ions induce the generation of reactive oxygen species, which causes further cell damage.

D

Genomic and plasmid DNA becomes degraded preventing cell replication from self-proliferation.

What is Antimicrobial Copper?

Antibacterial copper is a natural occurrence of the antibacterial properties found within copper or copper alloys containing 60% or more of copper.

It is the most powerful non-toxic natural antibacterial material that acts on most bacteria and viruses such as SARS-CoV-2, E. coli, and food poisoning bacteria.

The K Copper Plus Advantage

K Copper Plus is not just a coating, it is produced by a patented method compressing the material after adding antibacterial copper to the resin of the film.  The copper is integral to its structure, with all of its ingredients being antimicrobial.

Surface Antibacterial Coating

VS

K Copper Plus Antibacterial Copper Plastic

Other antimicrobial films use just a single surface layer of antimicrobial coating.

Do not use single layer antimicrobial coatings

Simple 1 layer of coating

 

With just a surface coating the Antimicrobial capabilities are lost once the coating is damaged.  In addition, you lose the antimicrobial effect when cleaned with disinfectants.

Not Semi-persistent

K COPPER PLUS film is impregnated with copper throughout the whole material.

Even distribution of copper in the film is critical

Even distribution of copper

 

Antimicrobial function remains throughout the film

Disinfectants can be used to clean

Semi-persistent functionality

Not all antimicrobial films are the same

K Copper Plus Other Copper Film Silver Ion Film
Level of bacteria within 2 hours of exposure (MSRA bacteria) 99.9% reduction Initially, similar reduction but lower reduction as the coating wears off Less than 20% reduction
Registered with EPA as antimicrobial film Yes ? – copper alloy content must exceed 60% No
Longevity Dependent on the frequency of contact but unless the film is torn, over 5 years + The coating will wear off rapidly especially with high contact surfaces Need frequent replacement
Disadvantage None Copper coating wearing off Must come in contact with moisture for the silver ion to activate

Virus inactivation using SARS-CoV-2 on K COPPER PLUS film

Korea University School of Medicine Biosafety Center Research Results (May 15, 2020)
It has been scientifically proven to reduce the COVID-19 virus by 97.2%

Analysis of virus inactivation performance of antimicrobial film compared to control group
Even after experimenting with a large amount of covid-19 virus, the result is nearly 100% eradication.

K COPPER PLUS significantly prevents the spread of COVID-19 disease

Using SARS-CoV-2 virus in May 2020 Laboratory results show a 97.2% kill in 24 hours

Virus infectivity analysis

The infectivity rate was significantly reduced compared to the control group resulting in a 97.2% reduction in infectivity.

Korea University School of Medicine Biosafety Center Research Results (May 15, 2020)
It has been scientifically proven to reduce the COVID-19 virus by 97.2%

Three features of K Copper Plus

The three main features of K Copper Plus, both adhesive and non-adhesive, make antibacterial copper film the most effective surface material.

Proven as a new antibacterial material

Scientifically proven efficacy as an antibacterial agent that continuously eradicates various types of bacteria 

Persistent antibacterial action

Years of research and development creating a new plastic material, copper particles are evenly distributed throughout, maintaining the antibacterial activity even if the surface is scratched or damaged.

Mass production possible in various forms

As it is provided as plastic material, mass production is possible and applicable to various polymers such as PP, PE, PC, ABS, TPU
