bio-ARMA™ represents the culmination of a journey into a bio-solutions to microbial growth than began almost 40 years ago.
While it is true that Silver and other “man-made” antimicrobials has been used for centuries to defeat bacteria, there are now “evolved” bacteria which are resistant to many of the chemical concoctions developed over years of scientific development.
bio-ARMA™ is a bio-based solution, novel in its composition and non-toxic. Through extensive testing bio-ARMA™ has proven to fall into a decreasing class of broad spectrum antimicrobials, that not only eliminate most gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, but also mold, fungi, viruses, etc.
bio-ARMA™ represents a truly remarkable breakthrough in bio-engineering. As an additive that can be added to most materials, at a cost that is significantly lower than its competition, bio-ARMA™ will become the antimicrobial additive of choice for manufacturers, contractors and decision makers within the Healthcare industry.
