Armaflex insulation includes anti-microbial protection

07 April, 2010

Built-in anti-microbial protection is now supplied with Class 0 Armaflex engineered foam insulation sheets — including sheets, tubes and coils. These products are said to be particularly appropriate for use in buildings with high occupancy levels such as offices, hospitals, schools and leisure centres.

The protection is provided by Microban, a technology that is incorporated into the manufacture of the insulation materials. On contact, this permanent protection penetrates the cell walls of micro-organisms — disabling their ability to function, grow and reproduce.
