In the fast-paced world of food and packaging technology, maintaining top-notch hygiene is non-negotiable. Enter Flowfresh, what Altex Coatings describes as a game-changer in ultra-hygienic flooring.
The advanced, natural silver-ion based antimicrobial additive Polygiene, a powerful antimicrobial agent that inhibits the growth of odour-causing bacteria, mould, and mildew, Flowfresh is “revolutionising hygiene standards”, eliminating up to 99.9% of bacteria and ensuring facilities remain safe and sanitary, even under the most challenging conditions.
“This is in fact Flowfresh’s secret weapon and a key reason why Polygiene, unlike chemical-based antimicrobials, is celebrated for its sustainable and effective antibacterial properties of natural silver,” says Vanessa Mateus, flooring manager NZ at Altex Coatings.
This environmentally friendly alternative continuously works for the lifetime of the floor coating, whether the floor is damaged or worn, the bactericidal properties remain active, providing protection where it’s needed most.
From the base coat to the seal coat, Mateus says Flowfresh ensures the antimicrobial agent is evenly distributed, giving comprehensive protection. This is further validated by its “compliance with the ISO 22196 standard, which measures antibacterial effectiveness on plastics and other non-porous surfaces, an internationally recognised benchmark”.
Mateus adds that while many flooring options on the market boast resistance to individual challenges such as abrasion, heavy impact, chemical aggression, high temperatures, and rising moisture, Flowfresh PU cement “stands alone in its ability to handle all these challenges simultaneously”.
This technology ensures treated flooring remains resilient and hygienic under the most demanding conditions.
“Recently, Flowcrete NZ has invested in its sales and technical teams to provide customers with the support and service needed to make well-informed decisions.”
