Safe to Touch Print is an innovative and universal technology from Chemical
Intelligence Ltd which integrates antimicrobial technology into print sealants
and finishes, and thereby helps combat infection.

> its proven to carry high levels of contamination, shouldn’t we make it
> Safe-to-Touch™ ?”






PAPER IN OUR LIVES

On average, each person consumes approximately 675 pounds of paper a year. So,
where does it all go? You might be surprised at some of the answers...


PRINTING, MEDIA, AND ENTERTAINMENT

In the USA alone, they read over 350 million magazines, 2 billion books, and 24
billion newspapers a year - all printed on paper. Children play with paper
dolls, paper masks, paper board games, and paper kites. Your ticket to a movie
is made out of paper, and so are the containers and carry-out trays for your
popcorn and drinks. 


AT WORK AND SCHOOL

Most of us expect to find paper in schools and businesses; our desks are usually
covered with it. Thanks to computers, which were once expected to make ours a
paperless society, we now generate even more paper than ever before. And
our money, cheques, certificates, stocks, birth certificates and marriage
licenses, all the legal documents which govern our lives, are made out of paper.


PACKAGING

How would you ship light bulbs, water glasses, or most of your new household
products without the packaging that protect them? The largest category of paper
products today is the one we take most for granted - cardboard. Where would your
breakfast be without cereal boxes, coffee filters, or egg and milk cartons? In
some cases your cake is baked, sold, reheated, and served in its original
cardboard box.


CONSTRUCTION

We even use paper to build our homes. Sometimes it serves as a structural or
decorative component, as with insulation, acoustical
board, wallpaper and flooring. Paper is the backing material for masking
tape, sandpaper, and electrical cable wrap. And when shelter is needed in an
emergency, we can make a whole house out of cardboard.


PAPER; THE ESSENTIAL MATERIAL

As you can see, paper has evolved over the years from just a writing surface to
a material that touches nearly every aspect of our lives. Although we frequently
take it for granted, it's hard to imagine what our lives might be like without
it.

SAFE TO TOUCH IS A UNIQUE COATINGS SYSTEM DESIGNED TO PROTECT ANY PAPER BASED
PRODUCT FROM CONTAMINATION OF UNWANTED MICRO ORGANISMS 

Safe-to-Touch (StT) is  added to print finishes including sealants, varnishes
and coatings at the time of manufacture.

Its antimicrobial properties are clinically verified* and guaranteed to last for
the lifetime of the print treated product. StT has been press room tested under
all print conditions and paper stocks.

During intensive live scenario testing, StT presented no negative impact on
print finishes, colours, packaging hygiene, paper durability or the machinery
used in the production processes.

These tests by the print industry highlight StT as being the only commercially
viable way for manufacturers and brand owners to prevent the spread of viruses,
moulds and bacteria via their products and without passing significant costs to
the supply chain. This includes life threatening  MRSA, Salmonella, E coli and
Campylobacter

It is guaranteed to provide antimicrobial protection for the lifetime of the
product which are  sold into health services, care homes, nurseries and schools
and to all environments providing products and services to the general public
including the most vulnerable members of our communities.

ADDING VALUE TO PRINT COATINGS

Safe-to-Touch introduces a new, powerful strategy. Rather than squeeze profit
margins in this highly competitive market, it turns the printer’s end product
into a sort-after commodity.

By using StT to add antimicrobial protection to print finishes, all printers can
provide a service that is genuinely different from the competition, one that
adds true value to users and consumers and demonstrates social responsibility.

StT adds minimal component cost to the print finish

StT has been developed for mass protection against the spread of infection. It
has been priced to enable all printers, from one-man businesses to mass
production print facilities to provide their customers with the added value of
the globally recognised StT kite mark and protection.

All products with StT protection can use and display the internationally
recognised StT kite mark.

To the public this shows that the brand, manufacturer or procurement team
put the health and well-being of their end-users and customers first when
choosing suppliers and production processes.

INCREASING BRAND VALUE





The Safe-to-Touch™ is a registered certification mark owned by Chemical
Intelligence.  It is recognised as the international symbol of maximum
antimicrobial protection on paper.

The StT kitemark offers true value to consumers and procurement teams working in
or for the health and care sectors, education, public facilities including
libraries and information centres, leisure chains, businesses and any
organisations using, distributing or selling anything with a sealed print
finish.

In addition to being an additional unique selling point, Bioseal can be vital to
ensuring that compliance mandates are achieved. Hygiene and infection control is
increasingly monitored by regulatory bodies beyond the health and food sectors.

INFECTION PREVENTION

The Safe-to-Touch kitemark provides your customers and potential customers
with the assurance that you put customers first at every point of your business,
from customer acquisition to service delivery.

It is scientifically proven that at any point in the life time of a service
communications, whether a brochure, restaurant menu, book, direct mail, booking
form, staff rota or timetable, it will come into contact with multiple viruses
and bacteria.

This immediately puts anyone touching the document at risk of
cross-contamination.

An StT treated product or communication reduces the risk of
cross-contamination. By using only products and stationery that are
StT protected you can be sure that your customers are at less risk of bacterial
or viral infection when handling or even leaning against any printed materials
including advertising posters, brochures and timetables. 

If you are responsible for procurement, health & safety or brand protection for
an organisation providing services in utilities, leisure, health,
financial, professional services, library, education or transport, you can
clearly demonstrate your organisation's commitment to best practice processes to
customers, prospects and regulators.




BENEFITS TO CONSUMERS


Campylobacter has been highlighted as the major global cause of gastroenteritis
and multiple reports pinpoint cross contamination from external packaging as
key.

INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNISED KITEMARK





Safe-to-Touch provides peace of mind to consumers who want the option to make
informed decisions about the products or services they buy and use.

The StT kitemark tells consumers that a printed surface is resistant to all
known harmful pathogens. As a result, the risk of becoming ill as a result of
using or touching the product or item is significantly reduced. Any item bearing
the StTP kitemark confirms that the brand, manufacturer of service provider
conforms to a global standard.

StT is a trusted global symbol for pathogen safe printed products.

> is being addressed.”
