Cupron launches Cupron Clear™, a transparent, high-performance liquid copper additive offering sustainable, broad-spectrum microbial control across diverse industries.
Cupron Performance Additives has officially introduced Cupron Clear™, a pioneering liquid copper platform engineered for next-generation microbial control. This innovative product represents a major advancement in copper-based antimicrobial technology, offering a transparent, stable, and exceptionally effective liquid form of copper. Cupron Clear™ is designed for integration into a wide range of polymer and liquid systems, delivering superior antimicrobial protection while aligning with the latest standards for safety, economic viability, and environmental sustainability.
Unlike traditional copper additives, Cupron Clear™ provides over a hundred times the efficacy of conventional copper solutions. Its clear, liquid format offers a substantial improvement over incumbent biocidal agents such as QUATs (quaternary ammonium compounds) and Isothiazolinones, many of which are under increasing scrutiny and regulatory pressure due to safety and environmental concerns. Cupron Clear™ sets a new industry benchmark for broad-spectrum antimicrobial performance, providing manufacturers and end-users with a high-performance, copper-based alternative that is both versatile and sustainable.
“This platform solves challenges faced across multiple sectors and greatly broadens the scope of applications that can now benefit from Cupron’s technology,” stated Chris Andrews, CEO of Cupron. “Cupron Clear™ is the outcome of intensive research and development, driven by our commitment to replacing outdated technologies with safe, effective, and environmentally responsible solutions.”
This groundbreaking product opens new doors for application across diverse industries, including personal care, hygiene, construction, textiles, plastics, paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers—collectively referred to as the C.A.S.E. markets. As a colorless and stable cuprous copper liquid, Cupron Clear™ is the first product of its kind, offering unmatched flexibility in both formulation and end-use.
By introducing Cupron Clear™, Cupron now provides its partners with an expanded suite of copper platforms available in solid, dispersion, and solution forms. This broad product portfolio enhances adaptability for manufacturers while ensuring robust antimicrobial action in various production environments.
The company has also taken proactive steps to secure intellectual property rights, including patents related to Cupron Clear™'s composition, manufacturing process, and application scope. Strategic discussions are already underway with international distributors and partners to scale deployment across key industries and markets worldwide.
Cupron Clear™ is more than a product; it's a transformative platform that reflects the company’s vision for the future of sustainable microbial control. It offers a scalable, safe, and high-performance solution for modern industries seeking effective alternatives to conventional antimicrobial additives.
