CONCORDVILLE, Pa., October 22, 2020 — Southco, Inc., a globally recognized leader in engineered access hardware solutions is proud to be a licensed Microban® partner. Southco can integrate the Microban® antimicrobial additive into many of our most popular access hardware products.

Microban® antimicrobial technologies are effective against bacteria by up to 99% and are built in to products at the point of manufacture to inhibit the growth of microbes that are present in many environments. These technologies become part of the molecular structure of the treated articles and will not wash off or wear away.

As a licensed Microban® manufacturer, Southco can integrate antimicrobial technologies into many of our most popular products to help customers:

• Reduce bacteria count
