Understand GTech
Simply, the best.
GTech is the only chemical bound, non-leaching additive that provides unmatched safety and performance, at a competitive price. Our product tested at 0.25% by standardized test methods significantly out-performs competitive silver products at 1%. GTech has a p-factor that rivals all standards in any study.
In short, GTech active ingredient is EPA registered, United States Department of Defense reviewed, tested by independent laboratories, and is effective against a broad range of microbes.
GTech VS Silver & Triclosan
Making choices about which antimicrobial technology to use for your products is now easy. The words "bound," "embedded," and "contained" are much different than the word "chemically bound." Understanding the facts about modes of action, safety in handling, and durability before choosing your antimicrobial is important. With GTech Technology we are able to make the antimicrobial protection permanent or semi-permanent.
| Attribute | GTech Silane Based | Silver based | Triclosan-based |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mode of action | Physically ruptures cell membrane | Releases ionic free radicals that react with cell DNA and disrupt critical life processes in the cell. | Releases bischlorinated phenol (PCB) for consumption or cellular absorption, causing lethal mutations in the cell. |
| Durability | Permanent | Embedded in or on fiber binder or coating. | Embedded in or on fiber binder or coating. |
| Cost | Economical | Expensive | Moderate |
| Adaptive organisms | Does not promote adaptive organisms | Can create adaptive zones. | Can create adaptive zones. |
| In-plant safety / handling | Mild eye irritation | Harmful if inhaled, harmful if absorbed through skin, moderate eye irritation. | Moderate eye irritation, harmful if absorbed through skin, avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Do not breathe dust. |
GTech vs Bleach
Bleach is a mixture of sodium hypochlorite and various peroxide-producing compounds. Bleach kills quickly, but has no extended durability profile. As well, bleach releases VOC's – the gases that burn eyes, and smell terrible. Furthermore, the chemicals in bleach permanently denature microbes which gives them the capacity to evolve to "superbugs"!
GTech vs Lysol™
Lysol™ is a quaternary chemical that is combined with other chemicals. Lysol™ kills quickly, but has no extended durability profile. As well, Lysol™ releases VOC's – the gases that burn eyes, and smell terrible. Furthermore, the chemicals in Lysol™ permanently denature microbes which gives them the capacity to evolve into "superbugs"! GTech is a technology shown extremely effective against Bacteria, Fungi, Algae, and Virus with a durability profile second to none!
