The increasing awareness surrounding public health and bacterial borne infections has led us to test and certify our products and bring you high-quality combined with safety.
Our HPL, Compact boards and Worktops have exceeded the international standard ISO 22196:2011, which measures a surface’s antibacterial effectiveness and the reduction in bacteria over a 24-hour period.
The conducted tests on 2 bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) and their results confirm that the surface of our materials has the ability to inhibit the growth of microorganisms.
Due to the hygienically sealed and closed surfaces of our products, bacteria and germs are reduced by 99.9 % within 24 hours. This characteristic also prevents their breeding, which makes them suitable for areas subject to high hygiene requirements.
The certified antibacterial surface property of our products is independent of their decor or texture. With our Coordinated solution offering, you can choose matching materials for a consistent and coordinated look in various areas.
* Regular cleaning should be carried out in private and commercial applications. If not, the antibacterial surface can be compromised.
