Oky, the antimicrobial key
The objects around us are endless sources of bacteria and virus transmission. Door handles, touch screens, payment terminals, and public taps are just a few of the many opportunities for exposure to pathogens on surfaces. Since the beginning of the pandemic and while gradual deconfinement begins, the simple unprotected contact with an elevator button could expose us indirectly to the germs left by all the users who came before us.
Copper can kill up to 99.9% of viruses
Made of brass, a copper and zinc alloy, the Oky antimicrobial key avoids direct contact with everyday objects, while reducing the life of pathogens on its surface, thus reducing the risk of microbial contamination.* Indeed, it is proven that copper can eliminate up to 99.9% of viruses that are found on its surface.**
There are similar tools similar to the Oky key made of zinc, a material that offers no protection against the germs present on different surfaces. It’s also important to be careful with objects made of metals with an anodized surface. This type of treatment, also described as “soaking,” means that it will gradually lose its protective properties over time. The Oky key offers a sleek design version whose undeniable advantage is that it retains its antimicrobial properties throughout its lifetime, since it is made of brass.
The ideal gift for the corporate world
Giving your employees and customers an Oky antimicrobial key means offering a useful gift, a way to show them that you care about their health.
Customizable with a laser engraving (different options depending on the quantity), the Oky key can be attached to your key ring thanks to an integrated ring. Another option is to add a retractable drawstring badge holder which allows, among other things, to attach the key to a bag.

*The Oky key is a complement to hygienic measures and does not replace public health guidelines against Covid-19. Brass does not eradicate pathogens right away, but shortens their lifespan considerably when compared to other surfaces such as plastic and cardboard. Hand washing remains the best protection against the coronavirus.
