For nearly a decade, SALTO, in partnership with BioCote, the globally renowned antimicrobial technology solutions supplier, has incorporated antimicrobial silver ion technology in its smart electronic lock range, and supporting product hardware, such as the new SALTO Neo electronic cylinder product range.

Integrated with BioCote antimicrobial technology

By introducing BioCote antimicrobial technology to SALTO Neo cylinder range, SALTO helps to support a cleaner and more hygienic environment. This is of particular importance in healthcare applications or any public or shared space setting by improving the hygiene of common touchpoints and helping to prevent cross-contamination of microbes.

BioCote is an antimicrobial agent that contains silver-ions which are engineered to provide continuous, built-in protection on SALTO product surfaces and hardware devices, such as the XS4 smart door lock range, SALTO Neo electronic cylinders, XS4 locker locks, and the SALTO wall readers. The antimicrobial agent works by binding with microbes and damaging their cells in a number of ways, disrupting their normal functions and preventing them from reproducing.
