SecuSan® – The new hygiene standard

Did you realise that using a door handle is like shaking hands with thousands of strangers?

The issue of "hygiene" has been the subject of public concern for many years and is currently more topical than ever before – be it in clinics, schools, industry or leisure facilities. With the new SecuSan^® door and window handles, HOPPE has developed a solution that provides active protection in the very places where it is urgently required. SecuSan^® is a special surface that immediately suppresses microbial growth on a lasting basis. It is entirely maintenance-free and designed for long-term usage. Its high level of efficacy has been confirmed in independent laboratory and practical tests.

Antimicrobial effectiveness

SecuSan^® surfaces contain silver ions, which are embedded in a carrier system of ceramic glass. They form an active part of this material and prevent the growth of germs such as bacteria, algae and fungi.

The silver ions destroy the cell membrane of the germ. This stops respiration and nutrition of the cells, so preventing cell division. Independent tests have proved that SecuSan^® reduces microbial growth by more than 99%.

The SecuSan^® surface remains effective even when cleaned at regular intervals.

Application examples *

SecuSan^® is highly effective due to the fast action of its antimicrobial properties. Hardware with this surface is thus especially suitable for use in medical and nursing facilities, e.g. in hospitals, medical centres, pharmacies, care homes, nurseries, schools, institutes or public buildings. Wherever hygiene protection needs to act fast while remaining highly cost-effective and environmentally considerate.

Their hygienic and functional properties ensure that SecuSan^® handles are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications as well as for use in the hospitality sector: areas where they satisfy the high requirements in terms of hygiene control.
