Germ-free Paper for Hospitals, Offices and Writers
January 30, 2007

Antimicrobial Paper from DomtarHTLounge reports that Domtar has come out with a line of antimicrobial paper.
We can certainly see this product gaining favor in hospitals and offices run by germophobes, and the like. It's antimicrobial paper, and it's being brought to market by a company called Domtar.

A special silver compound coats the paper, preventing it from growing bacteria, fungus, mold, mildew, and even odors. Moreover, it keeps the dreaded staphylococcus aureus away, that diabolical MRSA that we've heard about so much lately.

You don't need any special equipment to store or use this paper, which can sit on the shelf without festering for much, much longer than normal paper. It's white, of course, and has a high amount of brightness, which should give you a good feeling about using it for presentations as well.
Wired's Bodyhack blog isn't too excited about the germ-free paper but we think it is good idea. Keeping fungus, mold and mildew off old papers might be a great help to writers with allergies. You can read more about the paper here on Domtar's website.
