Antimicrobial hygienic wall cladding is a unique product that is ideal for almost any environment as a surface finish where hygiene is paramount. PVC wall cladding is becoming more and more popular over traditional methods as it offers a range of sophisticated finishes as well as its appealing hygiene qualities. Hygienic wall cladding products and services are continuously being developed to provide Architects and Specifiers with the most comprehensive solutions to maintain the highest standards in design and function.
Antimicrobial silver ion is impregnated into the hygienic cladding panels at the time of manufacture. This helps stop the growth of bacteria and mould which works continuously for the lifetime of the panels, reducing levels of bacteria such as MRSA, E Coli, Legionella, Salmonella and mould (including Aspergillus Niger) by up to 99.99%
This article will show you how antimicrobial wall cladding can act as an additional line of defence in reducing the spread of bacteria.
