Antimicrobial additive technology

Biomaster is the trusted antimicrobial additive technology that delivers built-in, long-lasting product protection from the moment a material is manufactured. Incorporated directly into plastics, polymers, paper, paints, and coatings, Biomaster helps inhibit the growth of microorganisms, keeping products fresher and helping maintain surface quality for the life of the material.

Unlike temporary surface treatments or coatings that can wear away, Biomaster becomes an integral part of the material itself. This provides durable antimicrobial product protection, helps reduce microbial buildup on treated surfaces, and offers a distinct performance advantage for your products.

How Biomaster works

Biomaster uses advanced silver-ion technology, one of the most established antimicrobial approaches for treated articles, to help inhibit the growth of odor-causing, stain-causing, and material-degrading microorganisms.

Once integrated into a material, Biomaster works continuously through a simple three-step action:

  • Disrupts the microbial cell wall
  • Interferes with essential cell activity
  • Helps prevent microbial growth and buildup

This built-in, long-lasting product protection helps reduce staining, odor, and material degradation, supporting fresher, cleaner-looking products and improved material durability over time.

Biomaster surface protection

Biomaster enhances the surface quality of treated materials by helping reduce the buildup of microorganisms that can cause staining, odor, or material degradation.

By helping surfaces stay fresher in between routine cleaning cycles, Biomaster supports long-lasting product appearance and maintains overall material performance over time.
