Certified Maintenance Service introduces Max Defense System

As the Scenic City enters the annual flu season, Certified Maintenance Service is providing Max Defense Service, a green product application which fights against bacterial microbes that can spread the flu and other diseases.

Max Defense Service is a three-step system ending with the application of a silane-based solution that bonds to surfaces to eliminate microbes in between cleanings, said Certified Maintenance Service sales manager Guy Harris.

“When you spray a disinfectant on a surface, most disinfectants do a great job of killing germs,” he said. “But once it dries, it doesn’t fight the germs anymore.”

Instead of poisoning germs like traditional disinfectants, the active ingredient in the Max Defense System uses the molecular shape of the product to destroy germs, said Harris. The molecules form a spike with a positively charged nitrogen atom at the center, which attracts the negatively charged microbes and impales them on the molecule, he said.

“The molecules work together and act kind of like a miniature electrical fence with lots of barbs,” he said.
