Effective + Ecofriendly
Chemistry, not chemicals. Hypergreen, anti-microbial protection that contains no CFCs, ODCs, or VOCs.
Quality & Innovation
Proven since 1979, our nanotechnology was first developed for NASA. Our products are now EPA registered and made right here in Oregon.
How our Technology works
Our exclusive Microbe Shield technology uses a mechanical and enzymatic approach, eliminating the need for harmful cleaners and poisons. Fresh Start acts as a surface primer and disinfectant by killing 99.9% of bacteria, germs, mold, mildew, and viruses. Once the surface is free from these harmful microbes, the surface is treated with XMicrobe to create a long-lasting surface protectant using a mechanical non-toxic process that physically disrupts the microbe cell wall. These are Hypergreen solutions that, in use, are safe for children, adults, and pets. Each product can be used as a standalone, but use in conjunction with one another for the best and longest-lasting microbe-free protection.

How does the Xmicrobe Antimicrobial technology work?
The XMicrobe is a reactive saline quaternary ammonium compound. When applied, the active ingredient in the AEGIS Antimicrobial forms a colorless, odorless, positively charged polymer coating that chemically bonds to the surface and attracts negatively charged microbes. The treated surface acts as a layer of electrically charged swords that puncture the cell membranes and electrically shock the cells of the microorganisms that come into contact with it. Since nothing is transferred to the now dead cell, the Antimicrobial doesn’t lose strength and the sword is ready for the next cell to contact it. This is known as a mechanical kill and thus, does not create ‘superbugs’ as with chemicals.
Mechanical kill
XMicrobe creates a protective coating that reacts to a microorganism first by acting as a sword to puncture the cell membrane and then using its positive electrical charge to shock the cell.
Antimicrobial Active Ingredient
A colorless, odorless, positively charged polymer coating that chemically bonds, (virtually irremovable!), to the treated surface.
XMicrobe in Action
Step 1:
![technology-web-step-1 XMicrobe in Action Step 1](https://nwmicrobefree.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/technology-web-step-1.png)
With its silane backbone, the cured antimicrobial polymer becomes an integral part of any surface to which it is applied.
Step 2:
![technology-web-step-2 XMicrobe in Action Step 2](https://nwmicrobefree.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/technology-web-step-2.png)
The lipoprotein and negatively charged cell membrane are attracted to the positively charged. treated surface and punctured by the long molecular chain.
Step 3:
![technology-web-step-3 XMicrobe in Action Step 3](https://nwmicrobefree.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/technology-web-step-3.png)
The microorganism is “electrocuted”. Since the technology is not consumed when destroying
the organism, it stands ready to fight again.

Microbe Shield Repels Microbial Growth.
Aegis Microbe Shield acts as a layer of swords to defend against microbial growth. Because of their exceptional chemical bond (a covalent bond) the bonded polymer is neither soluble nor volatile. The unique bond results in the ÆGIS antimicrobial polymer becoming an integral part of the substrate.

Common questions
No. Unlike all other conventional antimicrobials, XMicrobe does not off-gas, leach, diffuse, migrate, volatilize, or otherwise leave the surface to which it has been applied. Its safety and efficacy profile is simply unmatched by other products. The incorporation of XMicrobe, and its remarkable surface modifying characteristics, has produced a new generation of air filtration products that can provide effective control of airborne microbes while eliminating the filter surface as a potential site for bacteria growth.
