KYDEX® ION TECHNOLOGY

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. Durable, chemical- and stain-resistant, KYDEX® Thermoplastics are ideal for high touch areas such as checkout stands, counter tops, point of sale, healthcare furniture, medical devices, kiosks, tray tables, and wall coverings.

Aggressive disinfectants are critical in eliminating surface bacteria and fungi to reduce the spread of disease.

Testing results confirmed that most 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
  • can be used with KYDEX ION TechnologyTM and KYDEX® MB (antimicrobial) thermoplastics
