Antimicrobial & anti-odour protection, a great solution for cars interiors

Did you know that we spend almost 10 hours per week on average in our car?!

How often do you clean your car’s interior? Do you usually find unpleasant odours?

The inside of your car is probably dirtier than your toilet, according to research from Aston University in Birmingham, England. It turns out that the trunk and the driver’s seat are the areas with the highest levels of bacterial contamination. They were even found to contain fecal bacteria.

Adding BactiBlock® to car components will definitively be a good option if you want to guarantee a hygienic and protected space. Let us not forget that, besides driving, we usually eat, drink, sneeze…What’s more, many parts of car’s interiors are really hard to reach, so ensuring a permanent cleaning is not easy at all!

Furthermore, the latest tests conducted in external laboratories according to AATCC – Test Method 211-2021, have shown that BactiBlock®, provides anti-odour protection, contributing to the reduction of unpleasant odours. This method evaluates odour control capabilities in finishes treated with antimicrobial technology.

BactiBlock® can be added to plastic, textile or leather finishes, hence applications are unlimited! If you are interested in BactiBlock®, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us for further information!
