Hytect has a unique surface coating that is fired into the glaze of the tile at high temperatures. When coated tiles come into contact with light, active oxygen is released via photocatalysis. This inhibits the growth and spread of bacteria and mold. Water alone is able to rinse even oil based messes without the use of harsh chemicals. Furthermore, Hytect activates an air-purification process during which pollutants such as formaldehyde are neutralized.

Because of Hytect technology, allergens such as pollen or house dust are unable to gain a foothold, and bacteria, germs, and mold are simply killed. Hytect tiles are also free of vapors and filter pollutants out of the air, enabling allergy sufferers to breathe easily! Hytect tiles make it possible to design a unique place in your home, while creating a healthy and comfortable living space at the same time.
Hytect surfaces are useful for any interior application where easy cleaning and a clean interior climate is required and any exterior that needs to present an attractive façade with minimal maintenance. There are however some applications which could especially use the properties of Hytect tiles to conform with regulations or protect from unwanted substances which easily accumulate in certain areas:
Pools & Spas: Maximum cleanliness is expected in swimming pools. Hytect ceramic tiles work towards this goal in an environmentally-friendly manner. Dust, dirt, or soap and cream residues are unable to gain a foothold on Hytect surfaces.
Showers at sports facilities or gyms: As soon as Hytect surfaces come into contact with water, a fine film of water is formed on them. Dirt is simply infiltrated and easily wiped away.
Healthcare: Hygiene measures are of utmost importance in hospitals, doctors’ offices, and schools. Hytect helps to comply with them using active oxygen to reliably destroy bacteria, viruses, germs, and spores. This process is undetectable as it can't be seen or smelled yet still gives long-term support in surface disinfection.
