Combat the growth of germs in high-traffic areas.
Von Duprin, in co-operation with Schlage, Glynn-Johnson and Ives, is pleased to announce the availability of antimicrobial coatings for door hardware.
High traffic, public use buildings are ideally suited to antimicrobial coated door hardware simply because they may have hundreds of people going in and out every day. Adding door hardware with an antimicrobial coating can make a big difference by inhibiting the growth of bacteria on hardware surfaces.
The antimicrobial coating is specially formulated to inhibit the growth of bacteria by interrupting cell multiplication. That’s because the coating is made using ionic silver (AG+), a single atom that is missing one orbital electron which interacts with the bonding sites on the microbe surface. The result is that the silver ions surround bacterial cells - blockading food and slowing the growth of bacteria, mold and mildew.
When compared to standard hardware finishes, the silver ion coating inhibits the multiplication of bacteria on the coated surface.
Antimicrobial coating is available for all Von Duprin push pad devices on both Satin Chrome
(626 / US26D) finish and for the 98 series on the Satin Stainless Steel (630 / US22D) finish.
