Plastics play a vital role in the healthcare industry today, especially in the light of the COVID-19 pandemic. They are essential for syringes, IV bags and personal protective equipment such as aprons, gloves and facemasks. They are also used extensively in incubators and dialysis machines and increasingly for furniture, fixtures and fittings.
The increase in microbes with resistance to antibiotics makes it essential to destroy them before they get into the human body. Antimicrobial plastics offer an extra layer of protection – reducing the number of harmful microbes on surfaces and thereby helping to prevent disease transmission. This protection is not sprayed or wiped
on the surface – it is actually embedded within the plastic, so it will not wear off.
Symphony Environmental Technologies plc (LON:SYM) is a world-leading developer of technology to make ordinary plastic biodegradable, and a range of other plastic technologies to protect against microbes, insects, fire, and many other threats.
