In areas like showers, bathrooms and kitchens, the humid conditions together with soaps and food residues can be the perfect environment for bacteria, mould and mildew to survive and thrive.
According to tiling, adhesives, grouts and sealants manufacturer BAL: “Only BAL’s range of grouts and sealants developed exclusively with global leader Microban technology will provide protection against black mould AND potentially harmful microbes and bacteria”.
Microban technology is designed to help keep bathrooms, showers and all tiled environments cleaner and fresher.
Because the Microban technology is built into BAL formulations, the protection reportedly provides continuous antibacterial and antifungal protection for the lifetime of the products, helping to create a cleaner, fresher and more efficient building application.
BAL Micromax3 ECO has longer-lasting anti-microbial protection, the company says, ensuring tiles are protected from mould and mildew for longer and being less hazardous.
Alex Underwood, head of marketing at BAL, said: “As market-leaders in full tiling solutions, we are proud to offer a range of innovative products such as grouts and sealants with in-built Microban technology.
“We are the only tiling brand in the UK to offer finishing products which can provide protection against black mould AND potentially harmful microbes and bacteria.
“When microbes and bacteria come in contact with the product surface, Microban protection penetrates the cell wall of the microorganism and disrupts the cell, making the microorganism unable to grow and reproduce.”
