AZIONE ANTI-ODORE

Le superfici ACTIVE sono in grado di degradare

le principali molecole responsabili dei cattivi odori

che vengono così eliminati, rendendo gli ambienti

più gradevoli.

AZIONE AUTO-PULENTE

Grazie alle proprietà fotocatalitiche di ACTIVE

SURFACES

®

, lo sporco aderisce meno alla

superficie delle lastre, che risultano più facili e

veloci da pulire.

(EN) We all need to inhabit the spaces where we

spend our daily lives safely and freely, without

sacrificing design. The materials we choose for

architectural and interior decoration projects must

therefore guarantee maximum well-being and

protection of our health in a simple and lasting

way. ACTIVE SURFACES

®

are the 100% Italian

answer which, in addition to being aesthetically

beautiful, fulfil the need for well-being and safety.

ACTIVE SURFACES

®

is the only ISO certified

and internationally patented photocatalytic,

antibacterial, antiviral and anti-pollution ceramic

in the world, successfully used around the world

over the last 10 years. ACTIVE SURFACES

®

products are high quality ceramic porcelain for

floors and walls, suitable for indoor and outdoor

areas and for cladding rooms and furnishings

in personal care or food preparation and

consumption settings like kitchen tops, tables,

counters, and preparation surfaces.

THE FOUR ACTIONS OF ACTIVE SURFACES

®

,

THE FOUR WELL-BEING PILLARS.

ACTIVE SURFACES

®

exploits the photocatalytic

properties of titanium dioxide combined with

silver, which transforms simple ceramic porcelain

into an eco-active material with new properties

that are:

• ANTIBACTERIAL AND ANTIVIRAL

• ANTI-POLLUTION

• SELF-CLEANING

• ANTI-ODOUR

Thanks to the action of light (natural or artificial)

and humidity naturally present in the air, ACTIVE

SURFACES

®

are able to perform these four

essential actions for safety and well-being both

in our homes, in bathrooms, kitchens and living

rooms, for workers and visitors in any public

place, including hospitals, kindergartens, schools,

libraries, airports, stations, bars, restaurants,

hotels, swimming pools, and spas. ACTIVE

SURFACES

®

is the only ceramic porcelain in the

world to retain all its photocatalytic properties

not only under UV light and sunlight, but also

under LED lights, maintaining its antibacterial

effectiveness even in the dark. The action of

ACTIVE SURFACES

®

is constant and lasting.

ANTIBACTERIAL AND ANTIVIRAL ACTION

High-performance

ACTIVE

SURFACES

®

ceramics eliminate up to 94% of SARS-CoV-2

virus (responsible for Covid-19) after only 4

hours exposure to UV light (natural daylight and

traditional light bulbs). The study carried out in

March 2021 by the Department of Biomedical,

Surgical and Dental Sciences and Department of

Biomedical Sciences for Health at the University of

Milan, follows ISO Certifications (ISO 21702 - ISO

18061) previously obtained demonstrating over

99% efficacy against four common virus strains:

Pandemic H1N1 and H3N2 Influenza, Enterovirus

71 and Poliovirus. For several years ACTIVE

SURFACES

®

have also held ISO certification (ISO

27447 - ISO 22196) in respect of antibacterial

performance, demonstrating up to 99.99%

degradation effectiveness against common

strains such as Escherichia Coli in addition to

more harmful, antibiotic resistant strains such as

Staphylococcus Aureus MRSA.

ANTI-POLLUTION ACTION

ACTIVE SURFACES

®

is able to convert volatile

molecules of hazardous pollutants such as

nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic

compounds (VOCs) into harmless substances,

with huge benefits for people’s well-being, both

outdoors and indoors.

SELF-CLEANING ACTION

Thanks to the photocatalytic properties of ACTIVE

SURFACES

®

, dirt adheres less to the ceramic

porcelain surfaces, making them easier to clean.

ANTI-ODOUR ACTION

ACTIVE SURFACES

®

are able to degrade the main

molecules responsible for bad odours, making

environments more pleasant.
