KYDEX® Thermoplastics are inherently antimicrobial and available with additional antimicrobial protection. Premium KYDEX ION TechnologyTM and KYDEX® MB materials are durable, chemical- and stain- resistant. They are ideal for hightraffic areas such as check-out stands, counter tops, point of sale, healthcare furniture, medical devices, kiosks, and wall coverings. Our quick response manufacturing model allows us to manufacture bespoke materials with short lead times in small quantities
KYDEX® MB Materials are
thermoplastic sheet with
antimicrobial product protection.
Antimicrobial protection is
incorporated into the sheet, which
helps keep the treated surface
cleaner between cleanings.
KYDEX® T MB

New KYDEX ION Technology™ is 99% effective at inhibiting the growth of stain and odor causing bacteria on KYDEX® Thermoplastics. KYDEX ION Technology™ interferes with bacteria DNA, which prevents stain and odor causing bacteria from multiplying on the treated thermoplastic sheet.
KYDEX ION Technology™ is an antimicrobial treatment incorporated into the sheet, which helps keep the treated surface cleaner between cleanings.

Cleanability & Chemical Resistance
Aggressive cleaning agents and disinfectants are critical in eliminating surface bacteria and fungi to reduce the spread of disease.
Testing results confirmed that KYDEX® Thermoplastics:
- are not adversely affected by industry leading cleaners and disinfectants
- perform without loss of surface finish, colour fastness, or degradation of mechanical and physical properties
Using the right materials and understanding their compatibility with disinfectants is vital to ensuring a long, functional life.
KYDEX® Thermoplastics with Infused Imaging™ technology provides the look of texture on a flat surface that can be
easily cleaned and disinfected.
- proprietary process that embeds imagery into thermoplastic material
- gives designers the power to create bespoke environments and brand experiences
- imagery will not chip, fade, or delaminate
- can use colour and imagery without sacrificing strength, durability, or cleanability
- can be used with any KYDEX® MB and KYDEX ION Technology materials
