CHERRY introduces the WetEx hygienic keyboard protection, a keyboard cover that’s designed to reduce the transmission of dirt, bacteria, and viruses. Studies have shown that the computer keyboard is one of the dirtiest and most contaminated office items in existence for many reasons. Firstly, being used by hands means it is susceptible to transmission of whatever is on a user’s hands plus the culture of drinking, and eating at the workplace near computers also adds to the build-up of dirt and bacteria in keyboards. CHERRY’s WetEx protective cover for computer keyboards aims to solve this problem.
The CHERRY WetEx firstly prevents dirt from getting trapped under the keyboard then enables easy cleaning with the use of common disinfectants. It is a simple but effective solution against bacteria, viruses, and contaminants. The WetEx cover is a flexible protective film that is resistant to diesel, oil, washing-up liquid, and distilled water as well as to a limited extent resistant to petrol and 40% sulfuric acid. It fits perfectly over the keyboard and offers an impenetrable surface. Under normal conditions, the CHERRY WetEx cover can last up to 10 million operating cycles and is ideal for home, office, and industrial applications.
