New antimicrobial range sourced locally.

 

A UK company has adopted a ‘Made In Britain’ stance to launch a new range of antimicrobial writing and paper products.

 

Bio5 has worked with Polygiene BioMaster to create a range of high-quality stationery products with the added benefit of antimicrobial technology.

 

All Bio5 stationery products have an inbuilt antimicrobial coating which lasts for the useful lifetime of the product. Bio5 antimicrobial pencils also show a reduction in SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, by 99.7%.

 

The Bio5 message is brought to life with an injection of fun, highlighted by the Bio5 brand microbe-fighting superheroes. Each piece of stationery has its own superhero and as a team they form a story for children and schools to engage with to generate real excitement about using their tools. 

 

Bio5 co-founder and managing director Alistair Wheatley said: "It has been a huge challenge to find UK manufactures for all our sustainable products because the Asian market's lower prices have left this once thriving manufacturing area desolate. 

 

“We have achieved this and now all our products are made here in the UK which meet our high level of quality our customers require. We hope with our customers support and the unique antimicrobial technology that Bio 5 offers parents and children alike will love our concept and help rebuild great British manufacturing and choose Bio5 for all their stationery needs."
