As vehicle HVAC systems work harder during hot weather, components such as evaporator cores, condensate drains, air ducts and cabin air filters can become environments where microbial contamination develops.

BioCote conducted testing on behalf of one of the leading Automotive Manufacturers against microorganisms associated with automotive HVAC systems.
The results showed:
> 99.99% reduction of Staphylococcus aureus after 24 hours
> 99.97% reduction of Escherichia coli
> 99.99% reduction of Methylobacterium mesophilicum
> 99.99% reduction of Ralstonia pickettii
> 99.99% reduction of Chelatococcus asaccharovorans
> 96.63% reduction of Sphingomonas paucimobilis

These microorganisms were selected because of their relevance to automotive HVAC environments and their potential contribution to odour development and contamination.

For OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, this demonstrates how BioCote antimicrobial technology can support long-term HVAC system performance by helping to reduce microbial build-up on treated surfaces.

Not all silver-based antimicrobial technologies are created equal.

The technology used, how it is incorporated into a product, and the supporting regulatory and testing framework can all influence performance and suitability for different applications.

As antimicrobial specialists with over 30 years of experience, we believe education is key to helping manufacturers, product designers and material specifiers make informed decisions.

Interplas 2026 felt like a clear marker for where plastics, polymers and rubber are heading next: higher‑performance materials, tighter compliance, and smarter product design for demanding environments.

Three themes stood out on the BioCote® stand:
🔧 Integration → Built‑in antimicrobial performance.

Manufacturers are looking for additives that can be integrated at the compounding, extrusion or moulding stage, without disrupting existing processes or altering material properties.

🛡️ Functionality → Hygienically cleaner, high‑use plastics.
Across healthcare, food-contact, transport, and public spaces, there is growing interest in plastics that help products stay hygienically cleaner for longer between routine cleaning cycles, supporting durability, aesthetics, and user confidence over time.

⚖️ Compliance → Performance within regulatory boundaries.
Conversations repeatedly returned to delivering additional antimicrobial functionality while respecting regulatory frameworks, test standards, and recyclability targets.
Thank you to everyone who visited the BioCote® stand at Interplas 2026 and shared their challenges, projects and ideas.
