Puro Marazzi Antibacterial is the new and advanced antibacterial technology for ceramic surfaces, developed to eliminate up to 99.9% of bacteria and other harmful microorganisms on the product surface. By incorporating the additives that combat germ proliferation in the initial product firing phases, Puro Marazzi ensures a constant action against a broad spectrum of bacteria, in any light conditions, and an exceptionally long surface lifetime, since it dynamically prevents the marks left by organic wear.The silver ion additive is incorporated in the ceramic tile production process before firing at 1200°C, becoming an integral part of the product. Therefore, it is not an extra layer on top of the ceramic surface, liable to be scratched or worn; it is a permanent treatment that guarantees constant antibacterial protection over time.
