DIRECTIONS FOR USE - CUVERRO I
These alloys are only intended for the manufacture and fabrication of touch surface components for use in hospitals, healthcare facilities , and various
public, commercial, and residential buildings. A list of the areas where the CuVerro I can be used is specified below. CuVerro I is not approved for direct
food contact or food packaging uses.
TOUCH SURFACE COMPONENTS
Manufacture and fabrication of non-food contact touch surfaces components for use in:
•
Healthcare facilities
•
Community facilities (public and commercial buildings)
•
Common areas in residential buildings (e.g. apartment/condo buildings)
•
Mass transit facilities
•
Kitchen and bathrooms in homes and apartments
Laboratory testing has shown that when cleaned regularly this surface:
•
Reduces bacteria contamination, achieving 99.9% reduction within 2 hours of exposure.
•
Kills greater than 99.9% of Gram negative and Gram positive bacteria within 2 hours of exposure.
•
Delivers continuous and ongoing antibacterial action.
•
Remains effective in killing greater than 99.9% of bacteria within 2 hours.
•
Kills greater than 99.9% of bacteria within two hours and continues to kill 99% of bacteria even after repeated contaminations.
•
Helps inhibit the buildup and growth of bacteria within 2 hours of exposure between routine cleaning and sanitizing steps.
Clean and sanitize according to standard practice. Healthcare facilities must maintain the product in accordance with infection control guidelines. The use
of this surface is a supplement to and not a substitute for standard infection control practices; users must continue to follow all current infection control
practices, including those practices related to cleaning and disinfection of environmental surfaces. This surface has been shown to reduce microbial
contamination, but does not necessarily prevent cross contamination.
CUVERRO I FABRICATED PRODUCTS
The CuVerro I fabricated products may be sold and distributed under PCPA Registration No 31963. Products fabricated with CuVerro I must bear a label
with the text below, with one or more of the claims listed on the PMRA approved alloy label (refer to secondary display panel).
Proper Care and Use. Clean and sanitize according to standard practice. Healthcare facilities must maintain the product in accordance with infection
control guidelines. The use of this surface is a supplement to and not a substitute for standard infection control practices; users must continue to follow all
current infection control practices, including those practices related to cleaning and disinfection of environmental surfaces. This surface has been shown
to reduce microbial contamination, but does not necessarily prevent cross contamination.
This surface may be subject to recontamination and the level of active bacteria at any time will depend on the frequency and timing of recontamination
and cleanliness of the surface (among other factors). In order to have proper antimicrobial effect, this product must be cleaned and maintained according
to the directions for use.
Do not wax, paint, lacquer, varnish, or otherwise coat this product.
Routine cleaning to remove dirt and filth is necessary for good sanitation and to assure the effective antibacterial performance of this surface. Cleaning
agents typically used for traditional hard, non porous touch surfaces are permissible. The appropriate cleaning agent depends on the type of soiling and
the measure of sensitization required. Normal tarnishing or wear of this surface will not impair antibacterial effectiveness.
Not approved for direct food contact or food packaging uses.
Items exposed to outdoor environmental conditions are not representative of indoor laboratory test conditions, and, therefore, may impart reduced
efficacy if not cleaned when visibly soiled.
PRECAUTIONS
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
Potential skin sensitizer.
TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Treat symptomatically.
