Offering customers quality workmanship.

Liquid Plastics, manufacturer of high performance coatings for hygiene sensitive environments, has brought together its Approved Hygiene Contractors for the first time. The contractors travelled from around the country to the meeting at Liquid Plastics' headquarters in Lancashire.

"The aim of our AHC Programme is to allow us to offer our customers quality workmanship, to match the high quality of our hygiene coatings," comments John Moore, business development manager for Liquid Plastics' hygiene products. "By working closely with a select group of people we can ensure that they are fully trained in the application of the coatings, and will meet the high standards set by ourselves and our clients."

Before membership to the AHC programme is granted, contractors must meet strict criteria and agree to a Code of Practice. All approved contractors undergo dedicated training on a regular basis at Liquid Plastics' training facilities, which benefits the customer as they are guaranteed a high quality application. Furthermore, the lifetime of the coating can last between 10 and 15 years when expertly applied - three times longer than conventional paints.

The AHC programme was launched following the introduction of Liquid Plastics' Hygiene Coatings incorporating Silver Ion Technology. The Silver Ions present within the coating attack microorganisms that land on the surface in three different ways to cause the reproductive functions to break down, thus killing the cell and preventing further growth. Key benefits of the Silver Ion coatings include their proven effectiveness against a range of microorganisms (including Clostridium difficile, MRSA and Escherichia coli O157), the non-leaching anti-bacterial protection throughout the life of the coating, and the seamless, elastomeric finish.
