Bacteria are everywhere. We tend to see bacteria as our biggest enemies, yet they are also our biggest allies. Microorganisms are so numerous and endlessly adaptable that we will never be able to control them completely. In the past decades, we have come to understand microorganisms better, and it convinced human beings to believe that by using biocides, antibiotics, and pesticides, we might be able to get control over them. However, this has resulted in the exact opposite: bacteria and viruses developed further and adapted, making them resistant to our control attempts and technologies, creating resistant superbugs and hard-to-control funguses and viruses. PARX Materials is determined to break this vicious cycle. Our bio-inspired technology allows us to create hygienic surfaces, reducing the presence of bacteria and viruses by 99.9% and higher, but by an ecological and biodiversity-safe method, copied from the human immune system. Surfaces made with the PARX technology show physic
