Brass Finger Extension – The Worry-Free Way To Touch Any surface

 

Staying safe from harmful germs is now more important than ever. Keeping hands clean is vital, but what would you do when soap and water or hand sanitizers are not available?

If you’ve visited the stores lately, you’ve noticed that shelves are bare as the world is facing a never-before-seen shortage of hand cleansers. Fun fact: even distilleries have stopped their production of beverages in order to produce hand sanitizers for their communities.

What you don’t know yet is that, luckily, there is something that can help you fight against contamination with disease-causing germs so you can use the hand sanitizer only when it’s absolutely necessary – the WavCare Hygienic Touchless Finger.

“It’s hard not to touch certain surfaces instinctively, and it’s annoying and frustrating to keep track of all the things I might touch, and I probably shouldn’t have to because of the pandemic,” said David, 26 years old, a UPS driver. “Our boss equipped my colleagues and me with this touchless finger, and now I take it everywhere with me. I will surely continue to use it after the pandemic.”

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommends washing our hands with water and soap or using a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol only when we don’t have access to soap and water. Even though these good practices do kill germs and bacteria, the contamination risk is higher now more than ever. The solution might be to avoid touching certain surfaces as much as possible. Not to mention that excessive washing and disinfecting with alcohol-based products can make your skin dry and even lead to severe skin lesions.

“I used to empty a 50 ml bottle of hand sanitizer in two days. My skin was dry and almost bleeding. And applying sanitizer every time I’d touch a new surface at the office was exhausting,” said Linda, a 30-year-old financial analyst.

When it comes to surfaces like doorknobs, elevator, ATM, and gas pump buttons, refrigerators’ handles at grocery stores, and even your car’s door, it is almost impossible not to touch them, right?

But what if you use a tool to avoid touching a shared surface directly?

Designed by a team of specialists, the WavCare Hygienic Touchless Finger is made of antimicrobial brass as a solution to reduce hand sanitizer use.

People all around the world have started using this hygienic touchless finger, which is sturdy enough to help you pull doors, push buttons, sign on a touchscreen without directly touching the surface.

“What’s with all this hype around this tool?” we’ve asked ourselves.

 

Curious about the WavCare Hygienic Touchless Finger, we reached out to the experts:

This little every-day-carry tool is useful in the fight against germs and bacteria due to the material it is made of – brass.

Brass is a composition of 70% copper and 30% zinc that ancient people have exploited for various health purposes.

Even though the term antimicrobial was unknown to our ancestors, they did realize that water held in copper alloy buckets, including brass, was clearer compared to water stored in wooden buckets.

Egyptian soldiers used brass tools to sterilize their wounds.

The Romans and the Greeks used brass to treat ear infections.

In the mid-nineteenth century, during the cholera epidemics, the famous physician Victor Burq recommended preventive ingestion of a small amount of copper as he observed that the only ones not affected by this disease were the smelter workers.

So, why not use brass to fight against deadly pathogens around us?

Scientists have proven that brass kills 99,9% of harmful pathogens. In 2008, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved copper alloys as antimicrobial materials.

In 2015, research conducted by the University of South Hampton demonstrated that copper helps to prevent the spread of pathogens related to respiratory infections.

Brass is an oligodynamic metal.

What does this mean?

It contains ions that destroy living cells, including bacteria, fungi, and spores, and it is self-sterilizing. When these cells meet the brass surface, a chemical reaction happens and weakens the membrane of the cells, shutting them down little by little.

So, instead of using your fingertips, your knuckles, or your sleeves to touch different surfaces, this antibacterial touchless finger lets you open doors, push buttons, and more without touching any shared surface directly.

This tool is genius, and it can help you stay safe!
