The former India left-hand batsman said: "I am delighted to start the innings with Livinguard. Facemasks and gloves have become an extension of our daily attire. While doing my research on the right personal protection measures, I found that most face masks and gloves were either only preventive in nature or single-use. Livinguard face masks and gloves on the other hand, are not only preventive, but also protective.
Livinguard technology has been proven to destroy 99.9 per cent bacteria and viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Furthermore, they are reusable and washable up to 6 months, effectively replacing 210 single-use masks. This made my choice clear - Livinguard masks and gloves provide the ultimate protection to the user, safely and sustainably."
"At a time where we need to wear the right masks and gloves to protect ourselves during this "new normal", we must also remain conscious of the impact it has on our planet. My ethics completely match with Livinguard's vision and purpose. It is an honour to associate with a brand whose top priority is the safety and wellbeing not just of people but also the planet," the 48-year-old Ganguly added.
Mr. Sanjeev Swamy, Founder, Inventor & CEO, Livinguard AG, stated, "When it comes to continuous disinfection, no other facemasks are created with the same care and intense R&D as we do at Livinguard. Ammonium, benzalkonium, chloride, silver: these are the toxic substances which masks available in the market commonly use and once it leaches, it can cause irreversible damage to our vital organs and the planet. "
"Livinguard's top priority is the safety and wellbeing of people and the planet. Livinguard masks are trusted because they rely on unique continuous disinfecting properties, which has been proven by some of the world's leading scientific institutions.

These third- party researchers confirmed masks treated with Livinguard technology kills greater than 99.9% of SARS-CoV- 2, and many other common viruses.
