Antimicrobial handle helps boost active protection methods against bacteria

Specifiers can now help to reduce the spread of bacteria by choosing an antimicrobial surface for door hardware.  

HOPPE has developed SecuSan®, an antibacterial and antimicrobial surface for door and window handles, to help ensure high hygiene standards wherever people are present in large numbers.  

SecuSan® immediately suppresses the growth of pathogens on the handle on a lasting basis. Independent tests have proved that SecuSan® reduces microbial growth by more than 99%. 

Andy Matthews, head of sales at HOPPE (UK), said:  “SecuSan® is ideal for facilities managers trying to take care of high traffic buildings. In these types of buildings where there is so much to monitor and keep clean, SecuSan® helps to maintain high hygiene standards and requires minimal maintenance. It actively fights bacteria and fungi from the moment it is installed and is wear-free on a long term basis. This is particularly important in care homes and hospitals where residents are much more vulnerable.”  

The surface can be applied to a wide range of popular HOPPE handle designs including the Amsterdam and Paris series, all available in aluminium silver and stainless steel. It is also covered by HOPPE’s 10-year operational guarantee that applies to all HOPPE door and window handles.   

For more information on SecuSan®, please contact Andy on Andy.Matthews@hoppe.com or 01902 484 400.
