Design The Space partners with Microban for Antimicrobial Protection

Design The Space Now Includes Microban® Protection In Paint and Stain Finishes

(Florence, May 4, 2012) – Design The Space has raised the bar again for quality finishes on wood mantels, shelves, chair rails, moldings, and wainscoting paneling by partnering with Microban International, the global leader in built-in antimicrobial protection.  Design The Space wood products with factory finishes incorporate Microban® antimicrobial product protection which works continuously to inhibit the growth of bacteria that can cause stain, odor, discoloration and deterioration of painted and stained surfaces. 

Bacteria can double every 20 minutes on surfaces not protected with Microban.  Microban antimicrobial technology works to inhibit the growth of odor and stain-causing bacteria, making it ideal for wood products, wherever cleanliness is a priority.  As important, this added level of protection helps to extend the longevity, integrity and appearance of coated surfaces, as well.   And unlike surface disinfectants which temporarily eliminate microbes, Microban® technology works 24/7 and it never has to be reapplied and won’t wash off or wear away.  It continues to provide protection for the life of the coating. 

Microban® technologies have undergone extensive independent laboratory testing and have a long history of safe use.  Microban International is partnered with more than 150 leading companies and Microban® antimicrobial technologies can be found in more than 750 products.
