Screen Protector blog posts | Our Photodon blog offers advice on ways to protect and improve your viewing experience on you device with protective solutions.
Did you know that you can use Photodon's quality screen protectors for more than protecting your digital devices? Do you have a unique project? It’s amazing what our screen protectors can be used for if you just think outside of the box a little bit.
The Project
We had a customer who wanted to decorate a wall in her home with a vintage window frame. She envisioned floating pictures inside of each windowpane. Using a screen protector was not originally in her scope of options, but she was out of ideas when nothing else panned out. After consulting with our team, together they came up with a solution for her. Take a look. The result turned out fantastically!
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the workplace for the unforeseeable future, and Photodon is here to help our business partners protect their digital equipment and themselves with our durable anti-microbial screen protectors. Digital equipment in the workplace – timeclocks, office computer screens, informational kiosks, cafeteria ordering screens, or any other screen that employees touch – can be protected from damage by using a screen protector.
Why do we need anti-microbial films? Now, more than ever, keeping digital surfaces free from bacteria and viruses is essential in the workplace. While our anti-microbial film (AMC) does not kill viruses, it does kill 99%+ of bacteria that hits the surface, which gives companies an added level of confidence that they are providing a safe environment for their employees.
Instead of bacteria accumulating and multiplying on the screen surface, anti-microbial screen protectors drastically reduce the risk of transmission of common bacterial infections such as strep, e. coli, and salmonella. When these micro-organisms hit the surface of our AMC film, the zinc in the surface layer of the screen protector creates an uninhabitable environment for bacteria.

How does Photodon’s anti-microbial film hold up to disinfecting type cleaners? Anti-microbial screen protectors can be cleaned with disinfectant cleaners used in implementing rigorous workplace disinfecting procedures. While we are unable to say exactly how long one of our screen protectors will withstand regular cleaning with harsh chemicals, we do know that replacing the screen protector is much less expensive than replacing the device screen itself. We have repeatedly heard from companies about how expensive and unproductive it is when their digital equipment gets damaged from heavy usage or improper cleaning. We also hear from them how happy they have been with the results of using our screen protectors. There is no doubt that we are helping them save time and money.

Zinc Oxide damages the bacterial cell membranes, thus preventing them from reproducing and destroying them on contact.

Several months ago, a new customer named Jason – an owner of a Maaco Collision Repair & Auto Painting business in Minnesota – called Photodon. His problem? He had been purchasing a protective cover for his Satorius TopMix2 Paint Terminal that
A) didn't fit (it was like a bag around the machine);
B) was expensive (around $100.00); and
C) had to be replaced monthly because the plastic would get damaged when the paint had to be cleaned off it.
The TopMix touch screen is connected to a scale and mixer. When the paint is mixed, as you can imagine, it can splatter. In addition, the paint shop workers often touch the screen with gloves that have paint on them. This means that the very expensive touch screen needs to be protected.
Jason explained, "I use a paint thinner to clean the screen about once a week, and the protector I'm using gets damaged quickly. I'm spending a fortune on these protective covers. I'm hoping you can help me."
