More specifically, when the bacterial population is exposed to silver ions, it is reduced by 99,9% in just 24 hours, as proved by tests carried out by the Catas laboratory, according to the restrictive standards JIS Z 2801:2006.
How Silver Protector acts:
- The silver ions penetrate into the membrane of the microbe;
- they suffocate the breathing of the microbe;
- they attack the microbe DNA to prevent its reproduction.
Ideal product for hygiene-sensitive areas over time.

As a matter of fact, due to their mineral nature, the silver ions maintain their condition unaltered since they cannot evaporate. These micro-particles cannot be removed cleaning the wooden floor.

The technology Silver Protector has deep roots. Ancient civilizations, though unaware of the chemical principles at the base of the phenomenon, made wide use of silver for maintenance, purification and treatment purposes.
The Egyptians used silver containers to store water; the Phoenicians transported vinegar and wine in silver vases. It was a common practice of the Romans to cure skin ulcers by applying silver objects. Starting with 1300, the Catholic Church imposed the use of silver chalices and basins in the Eucharistic liturgy to ward off the spread of illnesses amongst priests and followers.
