Microban International has partnered with Calphalon brand, the manufacturer of the premium-quality cookware, bakeware, cutlery, and appliances – to develop a range of kitchen knives with built-in antimicrobial product protection. Calphalon Classic and Select by Calphalon knife sets now have specifically formulated Microban SilverShield® technology built into the handle of each knife, helping to provide antimicrobial product protection.
Every home chef faces the daily challenge of maintaining clean surfaces through constant washing and sanitization. Insufficient hygiene measures – combined with the diminishing antimicrobial activity of some cleaning solutions after application – can lead to exponential microbial growth. This contributes to the risk of staining, odors, and premature degradation of kitchen equipment. As one of the most commonly used utensils while preparing food, kitchen knives are particularly susceptible to these issues.
The Calphalon brand and Microban have proactively addressed this by incorporating industry-leading silver ion antimicrobial technology into the most common touch points – the handles – of the popular Calphalon Classic and Select by Calphalon knives. This helps to disrupt and prevent the growth of microorganisms on the surface of the handles. The technology begins to work as soon as microorganisms come into contact with the handle, supporting and enhancing existing cleaning practices to provide 24/7 protection for the lifetime of the product, without ever washing off or becoming less effective.
