BioShield 75 is a water stabilized, patented, EPA Registered and USDA accepted, revolutionary new product. BioShield 75 prevents the growth of an amazingly wide array of bacteria, mold, mildew, algae and yeast. BioShield 75 acts like a bed of microscopic spikes and pierce the cell walls of microbes. BioShield 75 is a totally new approach to providing long lasting Antimicrobial Protection.
BioShield 75 is unique. One end of its molecule creates a strong bond with a multitude of surfaces, porous and non-porous, forming a highly durable protective coating. The other end of the molecule forms a microscopic bed of spikes that punctures microbes like a bed of nails. BioShield 75 physically ruptures the cell walls of these microbes, without the use of poisons. Since BioShield 75’s methodology is mechanical instead of a poison, it does not create “superbugs”, which are microbes that build up a resistance to treatment.
BioShield 75’s molecular spikes are long carbon chains that are large enough to pierce the cell walls of various microbes. Being only about one thousandth the diameter of a human hair, they are too small to harm large cells in mammals. These chains of atoms carry a strong positive charge that attracts negatively charged bacteria. BioShield 75 has been found in independent testing to be effective against a wide array of microbes, including Staphylococcus aureus, E.coli, various Salmonella strains, black mold, athlete’s foot, skin infections, and others.
Q: What is EnviroSystems®
BioShield®75 antimicrobial product protection?
A:
BioShield®75 technology is a spray-on antimicrobial protection for porous,
and non-porous surfaces.
BioShield®75 antimicrobial protection gives substrates
an added level of protection against damaging microbes such as, bacteria, mold
and mildew that can cause stains, odors and product deterioration.
Q: How does
BioShield®75 antimicrobial protection work?
A: The active ingredient in the
BioShield®75 forms a colorless, odorless,
positively charged polymer, which chemically bonds to the treated surface. You
could think of it as a layer of electrically charged swords. When a
microorganism comes in contact with the treated surface, the quaternary amine
sword punctures the cell membrane and the electrical charge shocks the cell.
Since nothing is transferred to the now dead cell, the antimicrobial doesn’t
lose strength and the sword is ready for the next cell to contact it. Note that
in order for the
BioShield®75 antimicrobials to continue their effectiveness,
normal cleaning of treated surfaces is necessary. Dirt buildup, paint, dead
microbes, etc. will cover the treatment prohibiting it from killing
microorganisms.
Q: What benefit do I get from products with
BioShield®75 antimicrobial
protection?
A:
BioShield®75 protection continuously fights the growth of microbes that can
cause stains, odors and product degradation.
BioShield®75 protection makes the
surfaces in your home easier to clean and keeps them cleaner and fresher between
cleanings.
Q: What types of microorganisms does
BioShield®75 protection work against?
A:
BioShield®75 antimicrobial protection is effective against most common
bacteria, yeasts, molds and fungi that cause stains, odors and product
degradation.
Q: How do I know that
BioShield®75 antimicrobial product protection is safe?
A:
BioShield®75 technology has undergone extensive independent laboratory
testing and has a long history of safe use. It is registered with the EPA for
all applications in which it is used.
Q: Does this mean I don’t have to clean my products as much or as carefully?
A: No.
BioShield®75 protection provides continuous antimicrobial protection that
protects the surfaces in your home, helping to make them easier to clean and
keeping them cleaner between cleanings. However, normal cleaning practices
should be maintained.
Q: Does
BioShield®75 protection begin working immediately?
A:
BioShield®75 protection begins to work as soon as the microorganism comes
into contact with the product surface. It then works continuously to maintain a
consistently lower bio-burden than would be expected on a surface without
BioShield®75 antimicrobial protection. Under the right conditions, microbes on
an untreated surface can double every 20 minutes!
BioShield®75 technology is not
a disinfectant and is not a substitute for normal cleaning practices.
Q: How long does
BioShield®75 antimicrobial protection work?
A:
BioShield®75 protection is applied to the surface and will not wash off.
BioShield®75 protection is engineered to provide continuous antimicrobial
product protection for ninety (90) days or greater, keeping the products in your
home cleaner and fresher for longer than ever before.
Q: Has anyone ever gotten sick from using products with
BioShield®75
antimicrobial protection?
A: Extensive testing and a long use history have shown
BioShield®75 surface
protection to be safe. While it is impossible to say that no one will ever
experience an allergic reaction to anything, it is highly unlikely a negative
experience would be observed.
Q: Does the use of antimicrobials cause resistant strains of microorganisms?
A: No. since this is a mechanical action there is no opportunity for cell
adaptation or mutation.
.....This is a revolutionary new product that eliminates
microbes with a residual effect of 3 to 6 months from being
able to live and exist on many different types of
substrates.....We view BioShield75 as our primary weapon in
our arsenal in the ongoing battle against viruses and
bacteria.
.....There are products that are designed
to act as barriers to mold and mildew. One of these
products is BioShield 75. Some of us here at Grady-White have been using this product on our personal boats and we have seen some
good results.....
.....I would highly recommend BioShield 75 to anyone with a
mold issue. The product is safe, easy to use and is obviously,
very durable. With the excellent efficacy of this product, it
is easy to see why BioShield 75 has become the “go to” product
for anyone with mold, bacteria or virus related problems.

.....With the recent publicity about a potential outbreak
of "Swine Flu", our awareness of the need to provide a safe
working environment has been heightened. Because of this, and
other potential viral and bacterial problems that can plague a
heavily occupied workplace, we decided to be proactive. We
made the decision to have our central office treated with
BioShield 75. Treating the entire 8000 square foot facility
was quick and economical.....I would highly recommend
BioShield 75 to anyone who is interested in providing a
cleaner, safer, and fresher smelling work environment.

.....We have taken several precautions at Serra (Catholic
High School), including the daily disinfecting of desks and
tables, installation of hand sanitizers throughout the
building, and the application of "Bio Shield" on door knobs
and other high-Frequency touch areas (this product increases
hygienic cleanliness and reduces germ transmission).....

.....BioShield 75 has become our choice as an antimicrobial protectant for surfaces, not only
in our equipment rooms, but also in our locker rooms and on protective equipment such as shin guards
and shoulder pads.....
