RAK-Sanit is a complete solution that includes Gres Porcelain and Ceramic tile collections that reduce
bacterial contamination and contribute to a healthier living and working environment owing to its antibacterial
properties given by silver nitrate compounds.
RAK-Sanit antibacterial collection of wall and floor tiles feature antibacterial technology which is integrated into
the tile surface permanently. Once bacteria comes into contact with the tiled surface, the silver ions initiate the
elimination cycle. Silver ions in the antibacterial tile surface bind to enzymes, proteins, cell membranes and the
DNA of the microbe to damage DNA and block reproduction. This results in the death of the organism.

This specialised glaze is incorporated into the glaze on the tile during the manufacturing process.
The firing of the glaze into the tile at high temperatures creates a surface that inhabits the growth of microbes
that come in contact with the tile.
