ProtectionPro® by Madico® Announces New Antimicrobial Screen Protection

TAMPA BAY, Fla. – Oct. 1, 2020 – ProtectionPro® by Madico® announced today the launch of a new antimicrobial screen protection film called Microbe-X.

Specially formulated to inhibit microbe and bacterial growth, Microbe-X has a 99.99% effectiveness actively protecting the film surface against stains and odor-causing bacteria. The new film is designed to provide all mobile phone and tablet surfaces with antimicrobial screen protection.

ProtectionPro capitalizes on the growing trend for consumers to protect their devices as well as personalize them. The ProtectionPro solution makes it easy to install and generate add-on sales for telecommunication retailers and repair stores without requiring them to carry a large inventory of products to fit each device. ProtectionPro films are cut on-demand and will fit thousands of mobile devices including the newest models as well as legacy phones, watches, tablets and laptops.

ProtectionPro’s newest release, Microbe-X, integrates zinc pyrithione technology to actively prevent the growth of microbes while offering superior optical clarity, adhesion, and impact protection to device screens. In addition, the film boasts exceptional self-healing capabilities with indents from fingernails or keys disappearing in minutes.

“Mobile touch screen devices have been shown to carry high levels of bacteria and germs,” said John Storms, Madico Vice President and General Manager. “With the amount of time we spend using these devices especially during a global pandemic, it’s important to offer Microbe-X antimicrobial screen protection.”

Microbe-X can be installed on the front or backs of mobile phones or tablets to prevent the growth of microbes as well as protect the surfaces against stains and odor-causing bacteria. And with ProtectionPro’s cloud-based library of more than 20,000 different device designs, Microbe-X is cut on-demand to fit any device including older model phones as well as the latest releases.
