ACTIVE SURFACES™ is an advanced architectural surface covering which combines the aesthetic value suited to high quality projects with the functionality of improving the wellbeing of those who live in them.
ACTIVE ceramics are the only ones in the world to be photocatalytic, anti-pollution, antibacterial and antiviral, ISO certified and boasting two European patents.
Using (natural or artificial, even LED) light and the humidity naturally present in the air, ACTIVE Surfaces eliminate 99.99% of bacteria that settle on them, from the most common to the antibiotic-resistant ones. It eliminates particularly contagious viruses, such as H1N1 and H3N2 Pandemic Influenzas, Enterovirus 71 and the Poliovirus, over 99%.
ACTIVE surfaces transform polluting molecules (e.g. nitrogen oxides or VOCs, volatile organic compounds) that may be present both inside and outside the building into harmless substances.
Thanks to their photocatalytic properties, they also eliminate the molecules that cause this unpleasant phenomenon.
Finally, on an ACTIVE surface, dirt adheres less. Consequently, it is even easier to clean, without the need for expensive and aggressive detergents that are potentially harmful for people and the environment. ACTIVE surfaces can be used on the external façades of buildings, where the action of rainfall is sufficient to keep them clean, eliminating maintenance costs.
