Antimicrobial Coating System Microshield360 Enters Into Sponsorship Agreement With UFC After Case Study
CLEVELAND, Dec. 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- UFC and Microshield 360 announce their new sponsorship agreement today after analyzing the results of a case study done in June 2018 testing the amount of germs and bacteria on more than 40 surfaces and mats in the UFC facility.
UFC was tested with 560 individual swabs which were analyzed and then treated with Microshield 360. Unlike traditional disinfection approaches, The Microshield 360 coating bonds to any surface providing constant 24/7 preventative protection of dangerous pathogens including MRSA, Strep, E.coli, Norovirus, Common Cold, Flu, mold and algae for a period of one year.
The case study showed a 50% reduction in treated versus non-treated surfaces during UFC's 7th annual UFC International Fight Weektm as the UFC Performance Institutetm was open 24 hours, and a 60% reduction in pathogens when the Performance Institutetm went back to normal operations.
"I think both parties were excited with the results. It was clear from our first meeting that UFC takes environmental safety very seriously given the nature of their business," states Steve Kubec, General Manager of MicroShield 360. "Being such, their facilities were noticeably cleaner than what we traditionally see in the field. This attention to detail provides the perfect setting for the anti-microbial coating system. We have numerous success stories across very similar environments and we are confident we can reproduce those with UFC," says Kubec.
