HUNTERSVILLE, NC – Microban® International Ltd., a leader in odor control and antimicrobial solutions, has expanded its Microban Microbiology Testing Services to non-partners. This initiative provides independent testing and verification capabilities for evaluating antimicrobial performance of products for textiles and polymers. Experts from Microban’s Center of Excellence research facilities will lead companies, associations, universities and governmental organizations through the evaluation process from start to finish. At completion of the evaluation, Microban reviews the results with the client, providing guidance on next steps.
“We often receive inquiries and requests for microbiological testing from unsolicited customers who need test support,” said Ivan Ong, Vice President of Research and Development. “Expanding our service to meet industry demand is a natural next step. Given our 25 years of experience and core competence in understanding the antimicrobial performance of wide-ranging products from textiles to polymers, we bring tremendous value to microbiological testing, which is why we chose to open our test labs for independent and confidential contract testing.”
