Copper Inactivates Viruses + Bacteria
The Science of Copper
Copper ions are released from the copper surface, which attached the pathogen and cause cell damage.
The cell’s membrane ruptures from exposure to copper ions and other stress phenomena, resulting in a loss in both membrane potential and cytoplasmic content.
Copper ions induce the generation of reactive oxygen species, which cause further cell damage.
Genomic and plasmid DNA are 99.9% degraded.
Copper’s fascinating history dates back to ~2,500 B.C. where an Ancient Egyptian medical text describes how copper could be used to sterilize wounds and drinking water.

A safe place to work and learn
As we start a new Fall term, we are committed to continuing to provide a safe place to work and learn for all staff, faculty, and students [with] the installation of this innovative antimicrobial copper on high touch surfaces across our campuses.
Kathy Kinloch
President, BCIT
Simple to install and look great
Coptek's covers are flexible enough to cover many of our facilities’ surfaces, so we installed 1,000+ patches on our door handles and elevator handrails to extend the effects of our cleaning efforts. We regularly get comments about how impressive this initiative is from an IPAC perspective.

Another layer of protection
As we welcome our students, faculty, and staff to SFU this fall, creating a safe place for everyone to learn and work remains our top priority. We are very pleased […] to install antimicrobial copper on high touch surfaces can provide another layer of protection for our community.
