Typically, where there exists high frequency traffic, or in areas where special requirements have to be catered for e.g. Hospitals, food handling, PFI's and transport. The potential for cross-contamination by harmful bacteria is immense.

In recent years the problems of Hospital Acquired Infection and food poisoning in restaurants has brought these subjects more into the public domain.

From 2003 Allgood plc has an effective answer to the problem of cross-contamination via architectural ironmongery.

In conjunction with good hygiene practices such as increased surveillance, greater education and frequent hand washing BioCote offers a secondary level of protection against cross contamination. BioCote is an effective product in protection against harmful bacteria including MRSA, E.coli and Salmonella. BioCote inhibits the growth of micro-organisms thus forming an effective part of a good hygienic procedure.

BioCote is a patent-protected powder coated technology that has excellent advance anti-bacterial qualities The active agent is based on natural products that are proven to be safe.

BioCote is durable and the advanced- surface coating under normal use will last at least 10 years. The surface finish is more resistant to chipping, scratching, fading and wear than other wet sprayed finishes.

Whether lever or pull handles, door closers, Doc M fittings, or other ironmongery fomites, Allgood provides not only a robust solution, but, just as importantly, one that maintains a distinct aesthetic consideration.

Our view is that public areas, or institutions, where special user requirements need to be considered, should not feel "institutionalised".
