Antimicrobial technologies from Microban at Interplas Thailand

Microban International participates in InterPlas Thailand 2023, the most comprehensive exhibition of plastics manufacturing technologies in Southeast Asia. Taking place from June 21 to 24, this 30th edition of the event will bring together renowned brands and manufacturers to explore the latest advancements and sustainable practices in the plastic industry. InterPlas Thailand – one of five specialized events that form part of Manufacturing Expo – provides an exceptional platform for bringing together experts from across areas including surface and coatings technologies for plastics.

Microban will be showcasing its latest innovations – including LapisShield™, Ascera™ and MicroGuard™ – on booth 2C40 in Hall 102 at InterPlas Thailand 2023. LapisShield seamlessly integrates antimicrobial functionality into water-based coating formulations for application to a range of polymer products. Ascera, with an active ingredient inspired by nature,* represents a significant advancement in the antimicrobial industry and is specifically designed for olefinic polymers and solvent-based coatings. MicroGuard is a new line of antifungal additives for PVC, PU and EVA foam applications. It offers an alternative to arsenic-based formulations – such as OBPA – by using highly effective metal-free chemistries that work to protect treated products against fungal growth.

“We are excited to showcase our innovative antimicrobial technologies for plastics at InterPlas Thailand 2023,” said Kimberley Cherrington, Senior Brand Manager at Microban International. “We invite all attendees to visit our booth and discover how our innovations can enhance the performance, longevity and cleanliness of plastic products, contributing to a more sustainable future.”

Microban booth is located at 2C40 in Hall 102.
