Antimicrobial tubing Saint Gobain Performace Plastics Verneret TYGON®
Tygon® Antimicrobial tubing
Growth of microbes on many materials can lead to foul odors,discoloration and formation of mildew and biofilm. In the case of tubing, microbes can contaminate the material being transferred as well as degrade the tubing itself.
Formulated with a silver based compound on the inner surface at the point of fluid contact Antimicrobial Tygon® is effective against a broad spectrum of microorganisms.
Antimicrobial Tygon® outer surface can also be treated in case bacterias buildup on the O.D. is a concern. Cleaning procedures, such as washing with detergent and hot water can kill microbes. But this process can be time consuming and costly, and does not provide residual protection against fresh contamination. The best way to provide protection against contamination is to use safe and durable Antimicrobial Tygon®.
