How Does Copper Kill Germs?
Copper dissolves from the copper surface and causes cell damage.
The cell membrane ruptures because of copper and other stress phenomena, leading to loss of membrane potential and cytoplasmic content.
Copper ions induce the generation of reactive oxygen species, which cause further cell damage.
Genomic and plasmid DNA becomes degraded.

Can You PROVE THAT Copper Kills Germs?
Multiple studies and protocols showing the rigorous EPA Testing protocol and other studies.
What types of germs does copper kill?
- MRSA
- VRE
- Staphylococcus aureus
- Enterobacter aerogenes
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- E. coli O157:H7
Laboratory testing shows that, when cleaned regularly, antimicrobial copper surfaces kill greater than 99.9% of the those bacteria within 2 hours of exposure.
Antimicrobial copper surfaces are a supplement to and not a substitute for standard infection control practices and have been shown to reduce microbial contamination, but do not necessarily prevent cross contamination or infections; users must continue to follow all current infection control practice
Does copper kill germs associated with the novel coronavirus faster than plastic and stainless steel?
A recent U.S. government-funded study conducted by researchers at the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reporting that the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes the disease COVID-19, remained viable for up to 2 to 3 days on plastic and stainless steel surfaces vs. up to 4 hours on copper.
COMMERICAL CASE STUDIES
Does copper kill germs in fitness facilities?
This study from the American Journal of Infection Control shows that copper reduces the bacterial load on high touch surfaces in gyms and fitness centers.
Does copper kill germs in retirement homes, hospitals and schools?
This study from the Society for Applied Microbiology shows that copper kills germs when
used on door handles, light switches, and hand rails.
