Recently there has been an increase in the awareness of the public, and of professionals, to the dangers that bacteria in
the environment can pose. As a result of these concerns the need to manage and minimise this threat has become an issue for
designers and specifiers. This is true for healthcare buildings but is also applicable for the food preparation and education
sectors as well as other public buildings.

Bacteria may build up on almost any surface where the conditions are right for them to survive and prosper, i.e. where it
is most, warm and un-clean. When this invisible build up takes place it can spread throughout the environment by:
- Air conditioning and ventilation systems
- Through poor hygiene and cleaning practices
- Through human interaction
In the case of human interaction this can be a particular issue in areas that have a high level of human traffic and that
are open to the public.
Orcal Bioguard is a range of metal ceiling tiles designed for applications where a suspended ceiling is required and hygiene and cleanliness
are of the utmost importance. In these types of applications hygiene becomes the prime consideration. It is also important
to be able to gain access to the plenum where regular servicing is required. Where Orcal Bioguard differs from conventional metal ceiling tiles is that the special finish applied to it has active anti-bacterial
properties.
