Decades of independent research confirm what our customers already know.
A four-step mechanism that delivers protection unlike anything else on the market.
Bonds to Surfaces
When applied, Goldshield breaks through surface tension and forms a strong covalent bond — becoming a permanent part of the surface itself.
Charges the Surface
A nitrogen molecule gives Goldshield a positive electrostatic charge. Since most microbes carry a negative charge, they are magnetically drawn to treated surfaces.
Attracts & Kills Microbes
Goldshield's nano-scale structure resembles a bed of microscopic spikes. Attracted microbes are physically impaled and destroyed by the electrostatic charge.
Continues to Protect
Each nano-spike can neutralize multiple microbes over time. The bonded formula typically remains fully effective for up to 90 days before reapplication is needed.

Goldshield holds a US patent (9,089,138) for its industry-leading water-based antimicrobial formula, with additional patents pending in the US and internationally.
Goldshield's efficacy is documented in peer-reviewed journals and independent laboratory studies.
Reducing Microbial Load in an Intensive Care Unit
Researchers tested a long-acting water-stable organosilane to achieve sustained reductions in bacterial bioburden on hard hospital surfaces, where standard disinfectants allow rapid microbial rebound.
Reducing Bacterial Contamination of Environmental Surfaces
An evaluation of Goldshield 5's ability to reduce bacterial burden on contaminated surfaces through its covalently bound antimicrobial surfactant mechanism.
Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment
A quantitative risk assessment of Goldshield's antimicrobial agent, engineered at Emory University, quantifying the potential reduction of human health risks associated with hospital surface contamination.
Goldshield Technology: A Solution to Norovirus
Clinical trials revealed that Goldshield remains active for a minimum of 24 hours and up to 7 days after a single application, providing sustained protection against norovirus in care home environments.
