BIOSAFE® Gives Consumers Direct Access to Its Antimicrobial Solution for Sports Gear and Home Use

PITTSBURGH, Dec. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- BIOSAFE®, a Pittsburgh-based firm that markets an antimicrobial protection product for sports gear and home use, has announced it has established an online portal to give consumers direct access to its patented antimicrobial solution.

BIOSAFE®, which has doubled revenues over the past year on sales of its antimicrobial products, has launched its direct-to-consumer strategy with spray products marketed under the BIOSAFE® brand name, in keeping with the increasing trend of consumers making their full range of purchases online.

"Our BIOSAFE® ready to use spray product can be used almost anywhere around the house for long-lasting protection against mold, mildew and odor causing bacteria.  Perhaps most importantly, it provides long-lasting antimicrobial protection on sports gear," said Max Fedor, CEO at BIOSAFE.  "The gear used in sports like hockey and football can't be tossed in a washing machine after practice and tend to generate microbe-laden grime that fosters conditions where skin infections are easier to contract.  Even yoga mats if left unattended can lead to similar concerns."

BIOSAFE's spray coating, a surface protectant, contains the EPA registered active ingredient HM4100 Antimicrobial.  The BIOSAFE® spray creates a physical barrier, protecting the equipment from filth, grime, sweat and microorganisms that would otherwise foul the gear and fabrics that come in contact with the skin of active youths and adults.  BIOSAFE® is designed to keep materials cleaner and safer by controlling microbes that can contaminate and cause odors.  In addition to its new online direct marketing strategy, BIOSAFE® offers its product through strategic partners.
