STOP-BAC vinyl has been specially designed to bring antibacterial properties to flexible vinyl in addition to all the existing flexible vinyl qualities (clarity, brightness, durability, flexibility, and strong resistance to impact).
STOP-BAC complies with the International ISO 22196 and Japanese JIS Z 2801 standards to guarantee the highest Antibacterial effect.
STOP-BAC is preventing the development of bacterial niche and their proliferation in sensitive areas.
It is recommended in slaughterhouses, food preparation and food processing workshops, restaurants, hospitals, pharmaceutical laboratories, health centers, schools, industrial and commercial shops, etc…
