Unlock the future
of hygiene and durability
Stainless steel has long been the go-to choice for door hardware in health and social care settings, valued for its perceived durability and hygienic qualities. However, it is crucial to acknowledge and address the drawbacks associated with its use.
One major concern lies in the collection of harmful bacteria, germs, and viruses on stainless steel surfaces, which can linger for up to 72 hours. Given that door hardware is constantly touched, this poses a significant risk to the health and well-being of residents, patients, staff and visitors.
Another concern is that different grades of stainless steel are available, each with unique properties and applications. In the case of hardware, lower grades of stainless steel are commonly used, which can be susceptible to tarnishing and corrosion. This is especially true in environments with high moisture levels or when exposed to harsh cleaning chemicals, which can compromise the appearance and longevity of the hardware.
To combat these challenges head-on, we’ve created Armasmart®, a more advanced and dependable hardware solution that is suitable for health and social care settings.
The Armasmart® product range features a patent-pending coating, which not only prevents tarnishing and corrosion, but it also goes above and beyond providing powerful anti-viral properties that eliminates over 99% of viruses and other harmful microbes, including those that cause COVID-19.
Our cutting-edge technology effectively combats the accumulation and survival of harmful microorganisms, ensuring a safer environment for all. Furthermore, its self-sanitising properties streamline the cleaning process and reduce the reliance on harsh chemicals, helping you to unlock a new standard of excellence.
