THE STORY
The World’s First Antimicrobial Glove is born.
How it all began
In the heart of the Covid-19 pandemic, when uncertainty loomed over households worldwide, Chris Trevino, an IT professional with a passion for problem-solving, decided to take matters into his own hands. Witnessing the relentless spread of the virus, Chris felt a deep-seated desire to protect his family and contribute to the collective effort of saving lives.
As an IT enthusiast, Chris harked back to a previous project where he had stumbled upon the remarkable antimicrobial properties of copper. Intrigued by this discovery, he delved into extensive research, uncovering the extraordinary potential of copper to neutralize deadly pathogens. The idea took root in his mind – what if he could harness the power of copper to create a revolutionary personal protective gear?
The challenge was substantial; no one had successfully crafted a reusable and washable glove with a pure copper surface. Undeterred, Chris transformed his garage into a laboratory, embarking on a mission to crack the code. Countless nights were spent experimenting, refining, and perfecting the design until, at last, success was within reach.
Through persistent efforts, Chris achieved the impossible – a glove with a pure copper surface that was both reusable and washable. Eager to validate the efficacy of his creation, he enlisted the services of an independent, award-winning laboratory for comprehensive testing. The results exceeded expectations – his fabric and glove not only killed gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens upon contact but continued to gain strength over time.
A fascinating discovery emerged during testing – the weather and humidity played a crucial role in enhancing the antimicrobial power of the glove. Copper ions leached microscopically into non-copper areas, imbuing them with the same formidable antimicrobial potency. It was a groundbreaking revelation that set Chris’s creation apart from anything the world had seen.
Now armed with a product that held the power to save lives, Chris’s top priority shifted to bringing his invention to the world. The copper glove, born from the passion to protect loved ones and fueled by relentless determination, was poised to make a significant impact in the global fight against the pandemic. With unwavering commitment, Chris set out to share his creation with the world, envisioning a future where his innovative glove became an indispensable tool in the battle against deadly pathogens, starting with the ongoing Covid-19 crisis.
