Germs need humidity to proliferate. The Hexis film is waterproof and forms a barrier against humidity.

 

During cleaning operations, as well as in the presence of humidity, silver ions are released from the top layer of the film. These ions come into contact with the bacteria, blocking their metabolism and/or interrupting their proliferation mechanism, leading to their destruction When the PVC film is manufactured by Hexis, silver ions encapsulated in a glass matrix are distributed over the film in a uniform manner
