LIGHT WORKS HT coating

Healthy room climate – more important than ever! As we spend 90% of our life indoors (source: Sentinel Haus Institut 2014), it is important to be able to rely on a healthy living environment. The HT coating (Hydrophilic Tile) offered by Deutsche Steinzeug makes a significant contribution to healthy living environments: ■ It impedes growth by mould, bacteria and other microorganisms. ■ It facilitates cleaning of the surface. It helps to decompose pollutants in the air such as formaldehyde and indoor odours. And all of this simply through the effects of light! Titanium dioxide (TiO 2) is...

HT – ef fective against mould and bacteria. Ceramic tiles are already recommended even without this special coating – after all, their smooth surface structure prevents permanent infiltration by house dust mites, for example, which can trigger allergic reactions among people. According to tests by independent institutes, bacteria and mould are destroyed and new growth effectively impeded simply through contact with the HT surface. Active against microorganisms HT activates oxygen in the air in a photocatalytical process which decomposes microorganisms such as bacteria, fungus and germs. At...

HT – extremely easy to clean. Water on board. HT-coated tiles are particularly easy to clean as their surfaces are especially hydrophilic (literally: water-­ receptive). As a result, water does not form droplets or balls which ineffectively pearl off or dry leaving unattractive marks but rather a wafer-thin film is formed. Active against dir t This water film ensures that even the tiniest particles of dirt and stubborn residue such as grease which is difficult to remove under normal conditions are thoroughly infiltrated, detaching them from the surface and enabling them to be simply wiped...

The surface tension of the water is overcome. A fine film of water is formed. Dirt particles are washed down and easy to remove. Renowned test institutes confirm these effects. See page 11. A film demonstrates exactly how this works. Simply follow the QR code. www.clean-air-ceramics.com/clean

HT – productive feel-good environment. Health in the workplace. Unpleasant odours from the canteen? Or even pollutants such as formaldehyde or nitric oxides? HT is an appropriate tool to combat this. After all, the activated oxygen arising from the photocatalytical process on the surface of the HT-coated tiles also decomposes these volatile components of room air. The result: clean air! This is not only convenient in sanitary facilities and kitchen areas but also permits optimum working methods throughout the building, thereby representing an additional increase in productivity. The air is...
