Cat Life Placemat

Antibacterial copper infused placemats.
Copper is one of the few metals found directly in nature. Throughout history, various cultures, such as the Egyptians, have deemed it essential for health, survival and disease prevention.

When a virus lands on a surface with this technology, copper ions act directly on its nucleocapsid by altering its genetic information. Moreover, it inhibits and inactivates the enzyme that allows its replication.

Bacteria, on the other hand, recognizes copper ions as an essential nutrient and begins to absorb them, but quickly, the dose becomes lethal. In other words, harmful microorganisms like these cannot survive on a copper-coated surface.
