After thorough tests following the European ISO norm 22196 they concluded that the special composition of our material efficiently kills all bacteria within a 24 hour cycle, proofing to be truly bactericide for Staphylococcus Aureus, Escherichia Coli and Mycobacterium smegmatis.
This unique feature works through mere surface contact, literally killing microbes through “touch”. What’s more, the bactericide effect doesn‘t wear off or diminishes over time guaranteeing unsurpassed hygienic conditions of the protected surface.


* According to EN 1040 a surface is bactericide when its bactericidal activity is 5 or higher which translates to 100.000 times fewer bacteria on the treated surface than on the inactive control surface.
