BodyGuardz Partners with Ultra-Fresh to Provide Antimicrobial Phone Cases and Screen Protectors


LEHI, Utah, Oct. 01, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BodyGuardz, a leader in mobile device protection, today announced a partnership with Ultra-Fresh, a global leader in antimicrobial protection. Through this engagement, select BodyGuardz cases and screen protectors will now provide an additional layer of protection by reducing 99 percent of bacterial growth on their surfaces. These new products will launch on the BodyGuardz website on Friday, October 2 and will also be available in all AT&T and Verizon retail stores in the U.S.

“Now more than ever, we are conscious about keeping our personal items clean and free from bacteria,” said Lynda Rose, VP of Product Development at BodyGuardz. “BodyGuardz has been working toward antimicrobial products for several years, and we’re excited to partner with a globally respected brand like Ultra-Fresh to make that happen.”

A study from the University of Arizona found that cell phones are ten times dirtier than most toilet seats. Another study also found that a typical smartphone can have as many as 17,000 bacterial gene copies on it. With Ultra-Fresh, BodyGuardz phone cases and screen protectors are now treated with technology that will reduce the growth of that bacteria by 99 percent, making phones and cases cleaner.

Unlike other antimicrobial products that wear off with daily use, Ultra-Fresh enhances the antimicrobial protection for the product lifetime, keeping cases and screen protectors fresher, cleaner, and more durable over time.

BodyGuardz now uses Ultra-Fresh in its products for the Samsung Galaxy Note20 and Note20 Ultra. Additionally, Ultra-Fresh will be added to select iPhone 11 series cases and screens including Ace Pro and Harmony, Pure 2 and PRTX.
