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.

Cleanability & Chemical Resistance
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
