SYMPHONY ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES PLC
("Symphony", the "Company" or the "Group")
Positive Bovine Coronavirus Test Results
Symphony Environmental Technologies Plc (AIM: SYM), is pleased
to announce positive antiviral test results from Eurofins
Laboratories for its d2p antimicrobial masterbatch technology.
Eurofins tested Symphony's d2p "Viricidal Activity Agent"
incorporated in a polyolefin film, against Bovine Coronavirus in
accordance with International Standard, ISO 21702-2019, and found a
virus reduction of 99.84% in 24 hours. The official report is due
soon, after completion of quality control checks, but Eurofins has
advised Symphony that these positive results are not expected to
change. The Bovine Coronavirus is a close Beta Coronavirus
surrogate for COVID-19.
Michael Laurier CEO said: "this is a very exciting and positive
development for our global sales team to bring to the market as
quickly as possible and we look forward to receiving Eurofins final
report in due course. In the challenging times that we live in
today, we believe that a wide range of products from plastic
packaging to Personal Protective Equipment, made with our d2p
masterbatch technology will provide an extra level of protection
against many different types of bacteria and fungi, and now Bovine
Coronavirus. As d2p is embedded in the plastic it will not wear off
and will last for the lifetime of the plastic product. This welcome
and important news comes in addition to the approval by the FDA in
the United States in February of our d2p antibacterial technology
for bread packaging."
