Shield Cover Attributes

What is Green Polyethylene?
Polyethylene is normally produced from fossil raw materials, such as oil or natural gas. The Green Polyethylene is a plastic made from a renewable vegetable raw material, ethanol, extracted from sugar cane.
Green Polyethylene guarantees the same characteristics as petrochemical Polyethylene in terms of its functionality and recyclability.

The Virtuous Re-Production Circle of the CoLibri Eco Cover 
1. Sugar can; as it grows absorbs Co2 from the atmosphere
2. From the processing of the sugar cane, ethanol is 
produced 
3. Ethanol is the raw material for the realisation of Green Polyethylene
4. CoLibri uses Green Polyethylene to produce the new CoLibri Eco Covers

Green Polyethylene Process

NOT ONLY ECO FRIENDLY BUT COMES WITH A "ANTIBACTERIAL SHIELD"

Born from research and 100% Made in Italy
CoLibri Eco Shield is the new frontier of innovation; for each book, the protection that today everyone is looking for.
For the first time in a cover, CoLibri Eco Shield uses an innovative material that creates a protective shield around the book, that drastically limits contact with pathogens such as viruses and bacteria.

A Shield that lasts and is completely non-toxic 

CoLibriShield ScientistThe CoLibri Eco Shield does not contain biocides and does not kill viruses and bacteria. Its microelectrostatic charge makes it difficult for them to come into contact with the cover; this protective property remains unaltertered over time!
CoLibri Eco Shield does not exert any chemical action. Its protective shield is imperceptive to man, thanks to the absence of interactions with the skin; it is totally non-toxic.

It's protection is tested and its surface is always sanitizable 
CoLibri Eco Shield offers durable protection.
Independent institutes have conducted laboratory tests comparing the results of the new CoLibri Eco Shield. Results showing the surface of the new CoLibri Eco Shield turned out to be a more protective environment and concretely hostile to contact with pathogens.

ISO TestsPercentage of viruses still in contact with the surface:-
* after 4 hours - Influenza type A, down 86%
* after 24 hours - Feline Calicivirus, down 69%
* after 24 hours - Human Coronavirus 229E, down 78%
Percentage of bacteria still in contact with the surface:-

* after 8 hours - S. Aureus, down 90%
* after 24 hours - E. Coli, down 87% 

(In addition; for maximum safety, the CoLibri Eco Shield cover can be perfectly sanitised with simple ethyl alcohol.)
