Benefits of Antimicrobial RX Protection Film

August 28, 2021

Right now, with current events in the world, the importance of good hygiene has never been greater.

Bacteria is all around us, we can’t get away from it, and while some bacteria is beneficial, most bacteria has the potential to make us extremely ill. This is why good hygiene is so important.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s a door handle, your phone or tablet, a trash can lid, a cupboard door, your fridge door, railings, automotive interiors, gym kit, or anything else, any contact point surface is going to breed bacteria which has the potential to make us incredibly sick.

We realize just how vital it is to practice good hygiene when it comes to contact points and bacteria, which is why we developed our innovative antimicrobial RX8 Protection Film, to be used in a variety of different locations and settings.

Here’s a breakdown of just what it is that makes our RX Antimicrobial Protection Film so beneficial and unique.

What is RX Protection Film?

XPEL RX Gloss Protection Film is our self-adhesive, commercial grade, gloss, zinc-ion infused thermoplastic polyurethane film which we have designed to help stop the spread of germs and bacteria, and to help protect surfaces and products in the process.

Available in RX8 and RX10 options, having been specially formulated to resist the growth of microbes upon its surface, RX Protection Film is treated with a powerful fungistatic agent in order to produce the antimicrobial effects and to prevent any degradation from microorganisms.

RX8 Film is a self-adhesive film designed to protect everyday items such as personal gadgets, phone screens, car interiors, and so on. RX10 Film is an ultra-stiff core constructed self-adhesive film which is more robust and durable, and is better suited for commercial settings with high volumes of traffic such as touch screens, countertops, door handles, and so on…

As well as the fungistatic agents however, RX film is also coated with Zinc Pyrithione which eradicate any microbes upon the film’s surface, while also enhancing impact resistance and screen clarity when used on electronic devices.
