Antimicrobial activity for surfaces
Antimicrobial activity for surfaces
Intent:
To reduce occupant exposure to both harmful pathogens and hazardous cleaning agents.
Surfaces can be tested for antimicrobial activity by following EPA testing Protocol # 01-1A. Copper, for instance, is abrasion-resistant, non-leaching and meets the EPA testing requirements. Plastic surfaces, however, do not meet these requirements.
