In an environment where combating Healthcare Associated Infections (HAI) is regarded as the most important performance requirement, Leaderflush Shapland offers a range of products perfectly suited to meet the demands of the healthcare environment.
 
Hygienilac® - a biocidally proactive additive which kills antibiotic resistant harmful bacteria, such as C.diff, MRSA, Salmonella, Ecoli and Listeria, is added as standard to all Leaderflush Shapland veneered doorsets. Hygienilac® has passed British Standard 6250 tests for severe usage and its active ingredient has approvals from the Food and Drug Association (FDA), the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) – for indirect or incidental food contact – and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

This revolutionary additive is now also integrated into Leaderflush Shapland’s exclusive high impact PVC facing option – Hygieniform. Hygieniform incorporates Hygienilac® through the full thickness of the PVC, rendering it antimicrobial and germ-free throughout, which means that even if the surface is scratched, the PVC will retain its antimicrobial properties. Part of Leaderflush Shapland’s Designer and Plasform® ranges, Hygieniform can also be specified for use on protection plates and edge protectors, and is available in a range of 14 standard colours.
