Safety Shields can help prevent the spread of airborne illnesses by creating a physical barrier between people, but they also present a surface for microorganisms to grow. Silver ion antimicrobial technology protects AMGARD surfaces from degradation by preventing the spread and growth of microorganisms. The technology is built into AMGARD during the manufacturing process and remains active for the life of the product.

Certified laboratories have independently tested AMGARD to ISO 22196 “Measurement of Antimicrobial Activity on Plastics / Non-Porous Surfaces” – the industry standard for measuring Antimicrobial activity on Plastics and confirmed a reduction in the growth of microorganisms on the sheet surface.
