Reduce the spread of viruses with Durasafe Compact Laminate

We all know viruses are invisible but can be catastrophic. We can’t see them, we can’t feel them, we can’t taste them. But they are there. Most viruses contaminate through surface transfer. Touching these surfaces can be unavoidable in our day-to-day lives.

We know a virus is relatively easy to destroy on a surface using a simple disinfectant; however, we also know it’s practically impossible to sanitise a surface all the time, and cleaning a surface doesn’t guarantee that it won’t get contaminated again.

So what exactly do we need?

We need a surface that provides safety not only from bacteria and fungus but viruses too. That’s why we introduced antiviral protection to our Durasafe 13mm Compact Laminate range (without removing the antibacterial and antifungal protection that it’s always had). This means 99.9% of viruses that come in contact with Durasafe Compact Laminate will die.

So how do the antiviral properties work? These antiviral properties are developed under SAFEGUARD PLUS™ technology, which involves modifying the resin formulations such that the bioactive ingredients completely disperse with resin and retain their efficacy in the thermoset product. This technology ensures that the product is manufactured with the benefits of being Antiviral, Antibacterial and Antifungal. At the same time, we ensure the VOC emission levels are controlled as per the Greenguard Gold standards. So essentially, as soon as the virus comes onto the clean surface, the SAFEGUARD PLUS retards and kills it, ensuring the surface remains safe.

We all need to protect each other. Durasafe 13mm antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral Compact Laminate will help us keep each other safe.
