Our original tempered glass formula – crafted with Japanese Asahi glass – is infused with silver ions and cupric nitrate.
These elements are introduced during the tempering process at high heat to infuse antibacterial properties into the glass: it helps kill surface germs while also increasing the strength of the adhesive glass.
Our product is backed by rigorous testing at SGS, a world leader in laboratory testing. In order to simulate the longevity of the anti-bacterial properties, a re-creation of rigorous usage over 3+ years is performed using steel wool prior to the anti-bacterial test. After the abrasion simulation, our product is tested for the anti-bacterial properties. For full transparency, we are happy to share the results with our customers.
