Microban® technology is built-in to the products during manufacturing to provide continuous antibacterial and antifungal protection. When microbes, such as bacteria, mould and mildew come in contact with the product, Microban protection penetrates the cell wall of the microbe and disrupts key cell functions so that the microbe cannot function, grow or reproduce.
Microban is the leader in antimicrobial product protection and this partnership brings together the antimicrobial know-how of Microban with the leading position of Granorte on the cork coverings market.
In an increasingly competitive global environment, Microban protection delivers a valuable point of differentiation that consumers are demanding. Granorte will use Microban® technology in all its floating floors and cork underlay, becoming an intrinsic part of the products providing an added level of protection against harmful bacteria and mould.
Granorte is now the only manufacturer in the cork coverings sector that is licensed to incorporate Microban® antibacterial protection into its products.
