Anti-Microbial
Specification for Marco’s Hygieia uPVC
Product
Marco Antimicrobial uPVC
Product Description
Marco anti microbial compound utilises silver ion technology, to create a defence against 99.9% of harmful bacteria growth. The antimicrobial compound is incorporated into the uPVC, and is therefore an integral part of the trunking. This results in no degradation of performance, if the surface becomes scratched or damaged as there is protection throughout the system
Illustration purposes only, protective blue film to be removed during installation.
