Mould, mildew, bacteria and germs - these simple organisms, often called as microbes, are everywhere. Microorganisms are diverse in their lifestyles and aggressive causative agents of corrosion, deterioration, staining, odors, and health effects ranging from allergy stimulation to disease.
We can't always see them but in reality, this microbe stays rent-free in your premises and cause problem such as:
- Strong foul or musty room smell when the room is not occupied.
- Staining (green/black streaks) on walls.
- The black/green algae growth in bathroom wall grouting
- Cross-contamination spreads disease aggravates allergies and causes an unhealthy environment Human health effects; (asthma, allergies, rashes, flu-like symptoms) are everyday events. The co-relation of Sick leaves and the indoor air quality plays an important role.
- Outdoors carpet grass on Tennis court and public area mildew and algae grows unsightly and regular maintenance with hazardous chemicals is required to remove them.
- Complain from guest of smelly mattress and promote the growth of dust mites
A healthy clean environment living starts at the micro level. Now you can stop the spread of bacteria, microorganism and fungi in your premises and improve the indoor air quality.
The ÆGIS Microbe Shield is a systems approach to controlling microbial problems and is a powerful performance and emotive tool. We would like to meet with you to present and provide you a thorough introduction to this technology and its benefits.
Best of all, ÆGIS Microbe Shield is not removable with normal maintenance and comes with a *TEN year warranty*.
The Future Of Hygeine Standard
Now areas, which are properly cleaned, and ÆGIS treated, can remain clean for very long periods of time. Normal daily cleaning is now efficient, effective, inexpensive, and keeps germs at bay.
- ÆGIS kills all harmful bacteria and microbes
- Unique surface bonded treatment thus reduce wear and tear
- Gives long term Protection and not removable under normal used
- ÆGIS fights cross-contamination
- Protects fabrics and structures. Surfaces stays clean and last longer
- Prevent and Destroys Odours
- ÆGIS makes normal cleaning easier, as the use of hazardous chemicals is reduced. Normal cleaning will be sufficient. Reduces cleaning costs
- Tackles the grouting problem
- Stop Reoccurring problems of Fungus Algae, Mold, & Mildew Re-growth!!
- Comes with TEN-YEAR WARRANTY. *
- Will save you money by prolonging the life of your Surface.
Objective
To Provide healthy indoor environment
- Sustain occupant loyalty.
- Increase occupancy and improve hygiene standard.
- Reduce complaints and sick leaves.
How
The ÆGIS Microbe Shield
- Controls odor-causing yeast & fungi
- Prevents growth of infectious bacteria
- Is a safe, effective & durable treatment
Why Now
Trends clearly indicate
- Increased occupant awareness due to media coverage of harmful germs such as hand foot mouth Diseases.
- Concern over adaptative strains of bacteria and other microorganisms
- Productivity gains from improved IEQ
Research reveals in America
- More than half clean or cover public surfaces to dodge germs
- Microscopic organisms and particles have been implicated in respiratory illnesses, skin allergies, hypersensitive reactions and anaphylactic shock. Studies US attributes nearly 100% of chronics sinus infections link to mold.
National University of Singapore research shows
- Bad air in office buildings here makes one in three office workers feel lethargic and experience dryness of the throat, skin and eyes.(strait times Jan 2000)
FACTS: The flu, chicken pox, measles, pneumonia, athlete's foot and the common cold are all caused by microbes.
Who is ÆGIS
- A 1990 business/technology spin-off of Dow Corning Corporation
- A reputable supplier of an antimicrobial technology for treating buildings and textiles
What is the ÆGIS Microbe Shield
- A revolutionary antimicrobial technology that does not rub off or migrate onto the skin
- An extensively tested technology developed at Dow Corning Corporation
- An antimicrobial technology safely and effectively used for over 20 years
- A technology easily applied to indoor surfaces such as walls, floors, etc.
Emotive Benefits
Provided by the ÆGIS Microbe Shield
- Maintains long-lasting freshness
- Eliminates the smells created by mold,
- mildew and bacteria in the building Controls or eliminates microbial staining of the treated surface
- Reduces the risk of surface contamination
Technical Benefits
Provided by the ÆGIS Microbe Shield
- Effective for three years or more
- Produced by a Fortune 500 company in an ISO-9002 facility
- Unmatched safety profile
- The confidence of more than 20 years of effective, safe use on hosiery, active wear medical goods, home furnishings, and numerous other consumer products as well as in buildings.
Why the ÆGIS Microbe Shield
- Easily applied
- EPA registered and accepted
- Proven safety and effectiveness
- Provides emotive & technical value
The Difference
Is the ÆGIS Microbe Shield
- Used on recognizable products like Odor-Eaters ® and Dr. Scholl's ® socks, the Brillo ® All Purpose Scrubbing Pad and Purolator ® Home Air Filters
- Used in performance fabrics such as Surgical drapes and clean room garments
- Used to protect the indoor surfaces of hospitals and the nations leading heart and cancer institutes
How Does It Works
ÆGIS is applied in a water solution by spraying or fogging and bonds to surfaces both hard and soft. It does not dissipate into the air or wash off.
The result is an invisible but long-lasting protection. All harmful micro-organisms are killed when their cell membranes are ruptured on contact with ÆGIS.
 
The result is an invisible but long-lasting protection. Daily cleaning no longer needs dangerous chemicals. It can be carried out with on a regular maintenance.
Microorganisms (Microbes)
A minute life form of microscopic size, especially one that causes diseases
- Bacteria
- Fungi (mold & mildew)
- Yeasts
- Algae
Where Are Microbes
Virtually everywhere
- In the air we breath
- On our skin and bodies
- In the soil
- On practically all surfaces we contact
Microbial Growth
Microbes require certain conditions to grow such as
- Food (dirt, building materials)
- Warm temperatures
- Moisture (humidity, leaks, spills)
- Surface (skin, carpet, wall)
Microbial Effects
Microbial growth can result in
- Objectionable Odors
- Unsightly stains
- Building deterioration
- Allergenic responses
- Disease and Infection
Antimicrobial
Capable of destroying or suppressing the growth of microorganisms
- Conventional (leaching or migrating)
- ÆGIS Microbe Shield (non-leaching, bonded)
Conventional Antimicrobials
Diffuse from the surface to come in contact with the microbe
- Leach or migrate off of the product
- Are consumed by microorganisms
- Chemically interrupt (poison) the cell
- Can be used up
- Cause adaptative microorganisms
- Have short-term effectiveness
The ÆGIS Microbe Shield Technology
Is bound to the surface requiring the microbes to contact it
- Does not off-gas or emit VOC's
- Is not consumed by microorganisms
- Mechanically interrupts (stabs) the cell wall
- Will not cause adaptative microorganisms
- Provides long-term effectiveness
Antimicrobials & The Epa Required Registration
- If an agent claims to kill microorganisms it must be registered with the U.S. EPA
- An antimicrobial must only be used in accordance to its accepted label
The ÆGIS Microbe Shield Technology is properly registered with the U.S. EPA
- For use on virtually all indoor surfaces
- For use in fabrics, textiles, foam and other manufactured goods
Antimicrobial Agents
Differ in their
- Chemical Nature
- Mode of operation
- Durability
- Effectiveness
- Safety
- Cost
