Unique Mechanical Mechanism of Action
Destroys Odor Causing Microbes
Provides Residual Protective Barrier
Extends Garment Product Life
Enhances Hydrophobic Characteristics
No Poisons, Toxins or Heavy Metals
Established Safety Profile
Cost Effective
Provides New Revenue Stream Generation
Extends Garment Life

Bacteria traditionally feed off discarded skin
cells and oils that are absorbed into clothing
fibers or reside on clothing surfaces, weakening
the material.
As a inhospitable barrier is now present
clothing fibers are preserved to a greater
extent, thus increasing garment longevity.

Added Barrier Benefit


When applied to standard dividing curtains
which separate patients in healthcare, medical
or long-term care facilities, the resultant
material now acts as a substantial biological
barrier between bays.
Independent Testing shows effective
Suppression of Known Pathogens Including;

Clostridium difficile,
Escherichia coli,
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Klebsiella pneumoniae

Molecule is put into the softener cycle
Cost per application varies from $.005 per
pound to $.01 per pound
Molecule introduced at .01 percent based
on the weight of the fabric
Cost versus Benefit
Healthcare unit benefits:
 Operational cost that can be transferred
to patients
 New layer to their infection control
system
 Layer of protection for their employees
 Potential to lower HAI rates

Laundry Benefits:
 Enhance reputation –
 Unique marketing capability
 Cost neutral worst cast
 Revenue generator best case
 The ability to grow your market

21% reduction over 22 month period in a Turkish
Hospital – used on hard surface
 System works persistently with no
human error
 Improved reputation with your
consumers
 Improved reputation in the medical
community
When using Pathene 500 expect HAI reductions
Costs to
Laundry:
Our current cost
model will add
approximately
$0.01 to 0.05 cents
per lb of laundry.
Cost varies based
on quantity and
contract length.

textiles enhances
your brand,
delivers significant
value to your
customer and
keeps everyone
on the cutting
edge of infection
control
 HAIs run $5000 to
$7000 per incident

 Standard 400 Bed
facility will have around
1600 HAIs, annual cost
$8 million dollars
 HAI rates to be
published based on the
new law
 Dropped HAIs over 20%
in a 22 month study
Enhanced Hydrophobic Qualities



When the Bio-Barrier Treatment has dried and
establishes its mechanism of defense. The
matrix inherently adds beneficial hydrophobic
qualities to textiles with which it has been
applied.
This enhances the materials ability to resist
spills, soiling, liquids, absorption of sweat and
body odors while still allowing the garment to
significantly “breath” and still provide
evaporative cooling.

As this treatment provides additional benefits to aid in the decrease
of Hospital Acquired Infect ions (HAI’s) and provides a requisite
decrease in the overall bio-burden relating to institutions where
bacteria and odors are of particular concern such as:

Hospitals

Ambulatory Surgical Centers

Fitness Centers

Laboratories

Food Processing Facilities

Veterinary Practices

Government programs will not

Operational expenses can be
passed on to patents easily
Average cost of an HAI is
between 5K and 7K*
1-20 Patents will get an HAI
based on the hospital stay
370 deaths per day in the USA
due to HAIs
