Hydrotect

Hydrotect proves valuable in all areaswhere utmost hygiene is required. The surface coating for wall and floor tiles offers three important advantages: • it has an antibacterial effect* • it is extremely easy to clean • it eliminates disagreeable odoursThe effects are based on the principle ofphotocatalysis. The catalyst, titanium oxide, is fired into the glaze and facilitates a reaction between light, oxygen and hu- midity. In this process, oxygen molecules become activated decomposing bacteria, fungi, algae and moss. Hydrotect-coated tile supplier surfaces are hy-drophilic: as opposed to repelling water, the reaction relieves surface tension thereby inhibiting the creation of globules of water and transforming the water into a fine film which spreads behind dirt lift- ing it from the tile surface.
2 cleans the air as effectively as 70 medium- sized deciduous trees. The coating, which is unique in this form, is practically indestructible. The photocatalytic effect already activated by normal indoor lighting or natural light is permanently conserved. For further information, please order ourHydrotect special brochure. 30
