BACTERIA-KILLING COPPER TO BE INSTALLED ON TORONTO AND VANCOUVER TRANSIT VEHICLES Teck Resources Ltd. is installing anti-microbial copper coatings on high-touch transit surfaces on Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) and TransLink vehicles, following a successful pilot phase on transit that supports copper's ability to kill up to 99.9 per cent of bacteria on transit surfaces.
This new round of testing seeks to confirm those results from the first phase in Vancouver by evaluating copper surfaces on more transit vehicles over a longer duration of time across two different regions. For this phase, the medical microbiology teams at Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) and Mount Sinai Hospital/University Health Network will be undertaking regular bacteria testing, and VCH will be conducting laboratory testing on copper's ability to kill viruses, in addition to bacteria.
This trial, fully financed by Teck Resources as part of its Copper & Health program, will outfit copper on high-touch surfaces on several TTC buses, subway cars and streetcars, as well as several TransLink buses and SkyTrain cars."
