BASIC CLEANING
The water bath should be cleaned at regular intervals by wiping external surfaces with
a cloth or sponge soaked in warm water with a mild detergent. DO NOT USE STRONG
SOLVENTS OR SOLUTIONS CONTAINING CHLORINATED HYDROCARBONS, ESTERS,
KETONES OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS AS THIS MAY DAMAGE THE BUILT IN ANTI BACTERIAL
PROPERTIES.
The “anti-bacterial” paint nish inhibits the growth of bacteria. It has been tested by
independent specialist houses using internationally recognised test methods and
proven to be eective against a wide range of bacteria including Escherichia Coli and
Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA).
We recognise hygienic coatings are part of a controlled approach to a cleaner working
environment. Within the paint formulation is an active ingredient with proven anti-
bacterial properties which is maintained throughout its life span. In a laboratory
environment this is one less source of contamination. Unlike detergents the anti-bacterial
paint nish does not oer an instantaneous action, but is intended for long term general
protection against bacterial growth.
Moisture on the painted surface is necessary for the bacterium to absorb the agent and
be aected by it. The coating is therefore less active in very dry conditions although
moisture in the atmosphere will maintain some activity. Areas where moisture is trapped
are dicult to clean and allow bacteria to proliferate but these areas are most active for
the anti-bacterial coating improving defence against bacterial growth.
