The different approach of a keychain ist interesting but who in the world is so freaked out of a door handle. Strengthen your immune system and don’t avoid germs! You body can handle it.
A new low-tech product made from high-tech materials, the Handler anti-microbial handheld door opening device becomes one of the first truly practical tools designed to help individuals fight the perennial battle against infectious diseases. It does so by breaking the cycle of transmission and leaving the dreaded culprits at the door — literally.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) tell us that common colds, flus and staph infections, to name a few, are often transmitted as a result of intimate contact with carriers as well as contact with common surfaces that we share with them. As a first line of defense, the Handler, which fits conveniently on your key-chain, is a handheld device with a deployable gripping arm that allows users to interact with the most egregious of disease transmitting surfaces like restroom door handles, elevator buttons, and ATM keypads without actually making direct contact with them.
What makes the Handler so unique is that its rubber and plastic components are infused with nano silver particles which effectively kill 98% of all single-celled organisms (bacteria, viruses and fungi) on contact. The Handler’s button-activated rubberized hook was designed to easily pull open doors, even heavy ones requiring up to 60 lbs of force, and it is agile enough to actuate most of the public restroom levers, buttons and faucet handles so reviled by millions of germ-conscious users across America.
