HYG PALOPAQUE®
Active Antimicrobial Action
Regulatory authorities are raising the hygienic standards for food plants, medical facilities, food services, restaurant kitchens, slaughterhouses, and more. Hospitals are increasingly concerned about controlling the spread of opportunistic antibiotic-resistant bacteria. These efforts demand unique construction materials for covering walls and ceilings, as well as for forming the HVAC ducting that circulates the air through these facilities. An innovative technology from PALRAM is now setting a new standard in hygienic cladding, - an active antimicrobial cladding with less maintenance needed.
Breakthrough HYG products incorporate silver ions, a natural antimicrobial agent with proven biocidal behavior that stops the microbes reproduction. With silver ions, HYG products bring active microbe elimination to a whole range of applications, taking hygiene care one step further.
Why HYG?
PVC is the preferred sheet material for a number of reasons. It is highly resistant to the strongest chemicals and cleaning agents, highly fire resistant and typically qualifies for installation certification.
Palopaque HYG have either killed or inhibited the growth of all the pathogens tested to date. This includes microorganisms that can affect the appearance of the sheet. Since silver ions are uniformly distributed throughout the sheet,a scratched or damaged surface will be equally effective. PALOPAQUE HYG require less frequent cleaning and enables the use of less concentrated or more economical cleaning agents, thereby reducing maintenance costs. This highly efficient solution for microbe-sensitive areas is now offered as your HYG cladding.
