Original Material "S" ® plus+ AB [FS]
- Chemical Family
- PolyethylenesPolyolefins
Original Material "S" ® plus+ AB [FS] contains special substances that prevent the growth of bacteria and other microbes at the same time as protecting the environment and people. The material is thus ideally suited for use when manufacturing and processing foods. It can reduce the growth of microbes on surfaces by between 99.96 to 99.99% in comparison with materials with no special additives. This means that it can virtually eradicate unpleasant smells and the formation of biofilm. Original Material "S" plus+® AB combines antibacterial properties with exceptional characteristics of the "S" plus+® family. A member of the S plus family Production based on PE-UHMW SG 1.2.
