Antibacterial coatings are surface coverings containing an active ingredient that is an effective inhibitor of bacterial and fungal growth. They are highly recommended for use in hospitals, clinics, laboratories or institutions where the risk of bacteria and fungi needs to be reduced to the absolute minimum to ensure a completely safe and sterile environment. The functionality of antibacterial paints allows them to be widely used to protect elements used in industry, for example furniture, shelving, work surfaces, household appliances, safety cabinets, safes, and any other items of everyday use.
