The Science Behind Antimicrobial Ceramic Sinks: Healthier Kitchen Surfaces

How Antimicrobial Ceramics Work​

1. ​Active Agents: Silver ions or zinc oxide nanoparticles are fused into the ceramic glaze during high-temperature firing (≥1200°C).
2. ​Disruption Mechanism: These agents penetrate bacterial cell walls, blocking metabolic functions and preventing replication.
3. ​Continuous Action: The effect persists for the sink’s lifespan, requiring no reapplications (ISO 22196 certification).

​4 Key Benefits​

• ​Food Safety: Reduces cross-contamination risks during food prep
• ​Low Maintenance: Eliminates daily chemical disinfectants
• ​Odor Control: Prevents biofilm buildup in drains
• ​Long-Term Hygiene: Effective even with surface micro-scratches
