Our efforts towards sustainable plastics
Fusion of Polylactic Acid (PLA) and Silver
Utilizing Silver as an Environmental Improvement Material in the Biodegradation Process of PLA.
Benefits of Incorporating Silver into Polylactic Acid (PLA)
Biodegradability and Sustainability
・The incorporation of silver is expected to enhance the biodegradability of PLA, thus expanding its contribution to environmental sustainability.
Provision of Antibacterial Effects
・Inhibition of Microbial Growth: Silver possesses excellent antibacterial properties, and incorporating it into PLA provides antibacterial effects on the surface of the product. This inhibits microbial growth, helping to maintain a hygienic environment.
Improvement of Deodorizing Properties
・Odor Suppression
Silver also has deodorizing effects. By incorporating silver into PLA, the product can suppress the generation of odors even after
prolonged use, providing a comfortable environment for users.
This is beneficial for everyday products.
Positive Impact on Soil
・Reduction of Silver in Soil
When the product is disposed of, the silver contained in PLA is reduced into the soil. This helps reduce environmental burden and
contributes to improving soil quality. The addition of silver to the soil can also be expected to have antibacterial effects on
microorganisms. Furthermore, it can act as a nutrient element, contributing to the improvement of soil quality.
Improvement of Product Durability
・Waste Reduction
The antibacterial effects of silver protect the surface and interior of The product from deterioration caused by microorganisms,
thereby improving product durability. This allows the product to be used for an extended period, contributing to waste reduction.
The reduction effect of silver on soil
GeneLite is collaborating with the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences to pursue a pesticide-free future. We are conducting field tests for the agricultural auxiliary material, the ‘e- Mineral Supplement Additive.’ Our proprietary ‘e-Mineral Additive,’ based on the unique NTOC method, is a gel-like mineral that remains neutral for an extended period within the body, ionizing the required amount for absorption. As a result, the absorption rate exceeds 90%. Through these initiatives, GeneLite is contributing to sustainable agriculture and environmental conservation.
Peelable Nano Technology ~Revers Thinking~
Reutilization of Nano silver-Bearing Pellets as Plastic Pellet Materials and Silver as Environmental Improvement Materials
Our Advanced Silver Nanoparticle Embedding Technology: NTOC Method

Effective detachment through proprietary bonding techniques
Silver nanoparticles can be effectively detached using our proprietary bonding techniques. Immersion and agitation in aqueous solutions facilitate smooth progress through reuse cycles.
Process of cyclical reuse
Plastics from which silver nanoparticles have been detached are reused to create new products, leveraging their properties. By embedding silver once again, this recycled plastic maintains sustainability and reduces environmental impact.
Contribution to the environment
Our silver nanoparticle-embedded plastics, utilizing our NTOC method and proprietary bonding techniques, facilitate effective reuse, contributing to environmental sustainability.
Applications of silver nanoparticles for antimicrobial and deodorizing
Ag Nano Ban Series
In preparation for unseen threats, Ag Nano Ban 300
Just like insurance, why not reinforce your defenses against bacteria
as well? It’s the era where you safeguard your health!
Ag Nano Ban 300 employs silver with a purity of 99.99% as its antibacterial component. The Nano Silver-bearing pellets, produced using our NOTC method, utilize a peelable nanocoating technology. This technology enables a broad spectrum of effects, including antibacterial, deodorizing, odor prevention, and mold prevention through the release of silver ions.
The efficacy of Ag Nano Ban 300 has been assessed and confirmed through antibacterial evaluation tests conducted by SGS (Testing method: ASTM E2149-20).
GeneLite NEW ITEM
Air Catalyst Nano Silver Pellet Ball Ag Nano Ban 300
Simply toss the Ag Nano Ban capsule, ‘Antibacterial Nano Balls,’ into your washing machine during rinsing, and effortlessly transform your existing clothes into antibacterial garments.
Expected Effects and Instructions for Use
Silver has long been proven to be effective in antibacterial, deodorizing, odor- resistant, and anti-mold properties. In the flow of the washing machine, pure silver nanoparticles supported by antibacterial nano balls adhere to the fibers of the clothing, allowing the continuous antibacterial action of air catalyst silver ions (Ag+).
The silver particles detached from the pellet surface adhere to the fibers of the clothing through intermolecular forces, ensuring that the fabric remains undamaged. There is also no concern about color fading.
By washing with the antibacterial nano balls, nano silver particles adhere to the fibers with each wash, ensuring a continuous antibacterial effect.
The nano silver particles supported on the pellets indicate the replacement time through a change in color.
This innovative product allows for easy antibacterial treatment with pure silver particles without the use of chemical components at home.
While the drainage is relatively safe as it contains antibacterial water with nano silver particles, please avoid directly draining into groundwater or water sources.
Expect a reduction in bacteria and mold in the washing machine drum.
For humidifiers:
Nano-silver-pellets Ag Nano Ban Antibacterial Silk Capsules
Simply placing these capsules in your humidifier tank enables antibacterial and antiviral effects within the tank and purifies the air in your room. It can provide an excellent living environment, especially for the elderly, babies, and individuals with pre-existing health conditions.
Expected Benefits: Antibacterial, Deodorizing, Odor Prevention, and Mold Prevention
Since the humidifier tank is filled with water and maintains an appropriate temperature, it becomes an ideal breeding ground for bacteria and germs. Without regular maintenance, there is a potential risk of the proliferation of bacteria such as Legionella. Inhaling air containing these bacteria can also lead to pneumonia. By placing Nano-silver-loaded pellets in the humidifier tank, the pure silver nanoparticles embedded in the pellets dissolve into silver ions, providing continuous antibacterial action within the tank. This helps prevent the growth of bacteria and ensures that the humidification process uses clean water containing silver ions, contributing to the purification of the air in your room.
Antibacterial Effect: Silver ions possess antibacterial properties, suppressing the growth of microorganisms in the water within the tank. This not only reduces the reproduction of bacteria and mold in the water but also helps mitigate the dispersion of bacteria and viruses into the air through the water vapor emitted by the humidifier.
Air Purification: Silver ions have the ability to decompose and eliminate tiny harmful substances and odors in the air. When silver ions are present in the water vapor released from ultrasonic humidifiers, they disperse throughout both large spaces and small gaps, adsorbing and neutralizing impurities and odors in the air. This results in providing a cleaner indoor air environment. Additionally, it can be effective in breaking down allergens present in pollen, as well as acting as a measure against germs and viruses.
Long-Term Effect: The effects of silver ions are relatively long-lasting. The presence of silver ions in the humidifier’s water helps reduce stubborn scale buildup, alleviating the burden of regular maintenance. It also inhibits the occurrence of black mold and red mold, which can contribute to slime and unpleasant odors. This leads to a reduction in the need for frequent maintenance and care.
Nano-silver-loaded pellets for toothbrushes –
‘ Ag Nano Ban Disinfection Stick’
This disinfection stick utilizes pure silver nanoparticles embedded in antibacterial nano-silver pellets, generating silver ions that provide sustained antibacterial effects.
Expected Benefits: Antibacterial, Deodorizing, Odor Prevention, and Mold Prevention
Since toothbrushes are used to remove bacteria and debris from the oral cavity, they are prone to bacterial accumulation. Dentures, being used in the oral cavity, easily accumulate food particles and saliva. Without proper maintenance, both toothbrushes and dentures can become breeding grounds for bacteria, potentially reintroducing bacteria into the oral cavity. By simply placing antibacterial nano-silver pellets in a cup of water and soaking toothbrushes or dentures, you can easily achieve antibacterial and deodorizing effects, improving oral hygiene and supporting oral health.
