The COVID-19 pandemic has made many consumers very aware of how quickly pathogens can spread in public spaces, which has pushed for the development of products like the 'Stay Safe Carabiner.' The everyday carry (EDC) keychain is crafted from copper which is naturally antimicrobial, and can be used for opening doors, pressing buttons, cutting into packages and much more. This prevents users from making any physical contact with surfaces, while the naturally antimicrobial design of the keychain itself will prevent viruses, bacteria or germs from thriving on it.
The 'Stay Safe Carabiner' also functions as a handy tool keeping keys together, affixing them onto one's pants or bag and even features a built-in hex driver for on-the-go adjustments.
