Commercial Interior Décor: Improving Patient and Customer Experiences
The latest products in their line focus on providing more of a matte finish needed for interior spaces, as well as an antimicrobial option, which is something healthcare facilities in particular are starting to demand as the technology to produce this type of substrate gets more broad recognition.
When they first launched the antimicrobial product, called SafeWalls, Baltic notes, the focus was on viruses such as E coli. “And then COVID came, and we changed direction. We’re now very focused on healthcare and businesses that want to get the doors open, while doing as much as they can to limit risk.” In fact, he says, just this past Fall the company put the product through official testing to prove that it kills up to 96.2% of the COVID virus within an hour, allowing it to officially market the product for COVID prevention.
