Why don\u2019t we use biocides?<\/strong>
Biocides are chemical substances used to eliminate harmful organisms, but they can pose toxicity risks to both people and the environment.<\/strong> Their handling can also create hazards for those responsible for storage, periodic use, maintenance, and disposal. TURFGUARD was developed to offer a safer alternative.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Testing on our turf systems<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The effectiveness of the bacteriostatic action was verified through a comparative test on treated and untreated samples, following the AATCC-TM100 methodology \u201cAntibacterial finishes on textile materials\u201d (ACCREDIA-accredited method, ISO\/IEC 17025), carried out by a laboratory appointed by FIGC-LND, FIFA, and WR. Analyses on the Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram -) bacterial strain confirm a 98.32% reduction of the bacterial load on the tested turf.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
