What is the Copper Action Hub
The Copper-Action Hub was created to be a scientifically recognized body contributing its well-founded and multidisciplinary experience to study and implement the application and the most efficient use of antimicrobial copper in the public sector.
The hub is chaired by Dr. Roberto Bertollini, Member of the Scientific Committee on Health, Environment and Emerging Risks of the European Commission and former WHO Representative to the EU.
Based on scientific findings, the task of the Copper-Action Hub is to create guidelines and recommendations for the use of antimicrobial copper in highly frequented areas of public life, such as in the healthcare and public transport sector.
Due to the different research focuses and diverse perspectives of the hub members, it is ensured that copper as an accompanying instrument in infection control can optimally support future societies.
