Agus is a solution for industries which need to provide "a virus free environment" to
their workforce or deliver a safe product to their customers. Viruses present at the
workplace need to be neutralized rather than prevent exposure to workforce using
non-woven wraps.
Agus enables workwear items such as gloves, uniforms, shoe covers to neutralize virus-
es and render them ineffective. Existing workwear only tries to reduce transfer but
instead generates a hotspot of virus on its surface. These viruses can survive for long
durations and assist the virus to contaminate other surfaces.
Our Agus workwear solutions are able to neutralize the viruses and increase level of
protection for your employees and customers.
Wash durability of Agus can be customized and specific cost can be quoted.
Certification: All test results will be shared as per AATCC 100 Suitable for including
pharmaceuticals, hospitals, & FMCG based.

REMARKS:
1. PFU: Plaque Forming Unit = No. of Microorganisms
2. Percentage Reduction = (B - A/ B) x 100
3.
3. Log reduction Log (B/A)
Where:
B = Number of viable test Microorganisms on the control Carriers Immediately after inoculation
A = Number viable test microorganisms on the test carriers after the contact time
INTERPRETATION:
Fabric labeled as AVF Sample treated fabric has shown 99.19% reduction of Virus in 24 hours when analyzed as per
AATCC 100 - 2012 test Method using MS2 Bacteriophage as surrogate virus.
