WHAT IS AEGIS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM, AND WHY TREAT AIR FILTERS? Air filters in commercial buildings and residences are an essential component in establishing and maintaining indoor environmental quality. Air filters can be a barrier to microorganisms, and at the same time can be an amplification site for microbial growth. Test data from laboratory and field evaluations shows clearly the utility and appropriateness of the AEGIS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM as part of air filtration systems. The AEGIS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM chemically bonds itself to an air filter and virtually destroys all microorganisms which it comes into contact with. This reduces airborne microorganisms which it comes into contact with. This reduces airborne microorganisms by up to 86.5% in one pass, as certified by AFTL Crestwood, Kentucky test laboratory. The AEGIS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM is durable. This long lasting antimicrobial system becomes an integral part of the air filler, resulting in no off-gassing or volatilization, The AEGIS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM inhibits growth of microorganisms on the surface of the filter as well as in its dirt cake, thereby removing microbial contamination from recirculated air. The AEGIS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM checks mold and mildew odors soiling and staining. The AEGIS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM is a powerful tool in dealing with key microbiological elements in the battle for improved indoor air quality. The AEGIS ANTIMICROBIAL SYSTEM is safe. It is registered with the Environmental Protection Agency under FIFRA and FEPCA, as amended EPA #34292-1, and listed.

Aegis Filter Technology Registered with the EPA in 1976 The AEGIS technology was registered with the EPA in 1976 and has been used commercially since that time providing unsurpassed protection against bacteria, fungi, and algae and their staining, As well as odors, defacement and human health effects. The AEGIS Microbe Shield, or simply AEGIS, is a permanent antimicrobial that, when applied properly only by trained applicators, becomes part of a new surface, a surface that is highly resistant to microbial attack. Unlike all other conventional antimicrobials, AEGIS does not off gas, leach, diffuse, migrate, volatilize, or otherwise leave the surface to which it has been applied. The result is an extraordinary safety and efficacy profile unmatched by other products. A BOUND ANTIMICROBIAL agent, like the ÆGIS Microbe Shield, remains chemically attached to the surface on which it is applied. It functions by interrupting the organism’s delicate cell membrane. This prevents microorganisms from carrying on vital life processes. This antimicrobial acts on contact with organisms and can do so again and again. The incorporation of AEGIS Antimicrobial and that chemistry's remarkable surface modifying characteristics has produced a new generation of air filtration products that can provide effective control of airborne microbes while eliminating the filter surface as a potential site for microbial growth.
