Air Excellent ductwork finishing
Two types of inner-layer finishing
Finished with/without additional materials
Anti-bacterial properties
Anti-static properties
Air Excellent ductwork finishing
The anti-bacterial finish
Air Excellent duct is treated with additives that contain silver
The anti-bacterial properties are active on the surface of the duct innerlayer
Air Excellent limits bacteria growth
99,99% of bacteria are killed within 48 hours
Anti-bacterial works best with clean systems
The anti-bacterial finish works permanently
Air Excellent ductwork finishing
The anti-bacterial finish
Technology of anti-bacterial is commonly used in many industries
Anti-bacterial relates to clean and hygienic
Air Excellent ductwork finishing
The anti-static finish
Air Excellent duct is treated with additives to improve conductivity
The anti-static properties belong to the surface of the duct inner-layer
Plastics shall have an electronic resistance lower than 1E +12 Ohm
Less chance that dust will adhere
The anti-static finish works permanently
