Octaveward's bio-active panels can also be fitted to doors where frequent hand contact is a common cause of bacteriological bac·te·ri·ol·o·gy n. The study of bacteria, especially in relation to medicine and agriculture. bac·te transfer. The secret of the Octaveward panels is a compound embedded in the polymer. This means that the antimicrobial action is permanent and is unaffected by cleaning operations. The effective agent used in the panels is accepted and registered with the US Environmental Protection Agency Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), independent agency of the U.S. government, with headquarters in Washington, D.C.

Full panel specifications and advice about the bacterial control given against specific organisms are available from the company.
