Antibacterial glass is the latest innovation in glass technology fighting bacteria and helping to improve health & hygiene in the home and workplace.

Its anti microbial action eliminates 99.9% of all bacteria that form on its surface whilst also preventing the spread of fungi. This remarkable property makes it perfect for places where strict hygiene is a must eg bathrooms and hospitals.

Operation & Performance

The process developed and pattented by Glaverbel involves diffusing silver ions into the upper layers of the glass: the ions ineteract with bacteria and destroy them by disabling their metabolism and disrupting their division mechanisms. The antibacterial effect of the glass is ongoing, particularly in warm and moist conditions favouring the development of bacteria and mould.
