Duravit launches HygieneGlaze 2.0, a more advanced version of its antibacterial glaze. The new HygieneGlaze 2.0 is not only powerful on toilets and urinals, but also rapidly effective. After 12 hours, 99.9 percent of bacteria are eradicated. After 24 hours, HygieneGlaze 2.0 reaches 99.999 percent bacteria elimination.

HygieneGlaze 2.0’s manufacturing process is key to its reduction in pathogens like E.Coli. Baked into the ceramic, HygieneGlaze 2.0 extends from the interior of the basin to the rim of the toilet or urinal, which allows it to tackle areas high in bacteria accumulation. The glaze kills E.Coli bacteria by use of the oligodynamic reaction – the effect of positively charged metal ions on bacteria. HygieneGlaze 2.0’s optimized formula contains a new combination of various metal ions and active substances. It is available for all toilets and urinals in the P3 Comforts and ME by Starck ranges.
