Fineotex Chemical Limited, in partnership with the HealthGuard Corporation Pvt. Ltd. (HGC) of Australia, has gained recognition from the United States (US) Environment Protection Agency (EPA). Our market-leading non-heavy metal bases anti-microbial treatment, HG AMIC, is now approved for the US market.
We are excited to open our doors to new markets with our premium HG AMIC, which has been successfully commercialised worldwide for over 25 years and offers unparalleled safety. Let us examine HG AMIC’s utility and potential application areas.
HG AMIC and its utility:
- With such a vast array of uses, HG AMIC must be one of the most adaptable anti-microbial solutions today. It is effective against microorganisms that cause odours and stains.
- HG AMIC is introduced into materials during production to produce the final goods. The materials will be used in the final manufacturing process as the final products or components.
- HG AMIC inhibits the growth of organisms that produce unpleasant odours, discolouration, staining, degradation, or corrosion, such as algae, mould, mildew, fungus, and bacteria.
- It is highly cost-effective in all permitted applications and is simple to apply by padding, spraying, or exhaust. Additionally, it is compatible with various cationic finishes, particularly micro emulsion silicone softeners.
