Anti-microbial labelstock fights disease

Tenza Technologies has launched an anti-microbial technology as a laminate face stock which can be teamed with a range of different adhesive and release liner combinations. Key applications include the pharmaceutical industry and health organisations faced with an alarming increase in hospital infections such as MRSA.
'TenzaGuard is something that the pharmaceutical market urgently requires’, says Ib Schjotz-Pedersen, Head of Sales and Marketing at Tenza Technologies. ‘It is a highly significant development in the fight against the spread of bacteria that lead to nasty infections, enabling medical workers to handle all types of medical packages and bottles with confidence.’
The active ingredients in the new anti-microbial face material are claimed at least 99 per cent effective in limiting the growth of MRSA. It also successfully fights against other harmful bacteria including listeria, E-coli and salmonella, says the manufacturer
