Antimicrobial Barcode Scanners have a built-in active ingredient that enables the scanner to resist the growth of microbes such as bacteria, mold and mildew. Antimicrobial scanners are vital in the healthcare environment in which medical personnel rely on scanners to complete tasks while also being vigilant to not expose patients to unwanted bacteria. Antimicrobial scanners will stay cleaner, fresher and last longer than scanners with untreated surfaces.
