Built-In Protection with SAFEGUARD PLUS™
In hygiene-critical environments, DuraSafe Compact Laminate leads the way. Each sheet is infused with SAFEGUARD PLUS™, an advanced antimicrobial technology that neutralises 99.9% of viruses, bacteria, and fungi on contact.
Unlike surface coatings that wear down, this protection is integrated directly into the laminate’s resin core—ensuring long-term effectiveness. This makes DuraSafe ideal for high-traffic public amenities, such as:
- Schools, universities, and government buildings
- Sports and recreation amenities
- Industrial and warehouse amenities
- Commercial and office bathrooms and end-of-trip facilities
This built-in technology gives specifiers and end-users confidence in the product’s long-term hygiene performance.
Certified Low-VOC and Environmentally Conscious
With growing emphasis on indoor air quality and sustainable construction, DuraSafe compact laminate meets the standard. It holds Greenguard Gold certification for low-VOC emissions—making it an ideal choice for green building projects and environmentally responsible designs.
Accessible Design with LRV Compliance
Creating accessible and code-compliant washrooms means selecting materials that meet Light Reflective Value (LRV) standards. DuraSafe’s solid-tone palette is developed to ensure strong LRV contrast, helping designers easily meet Australian accessibility regulations.
While woodgrains may present lower LRV readings, DuraCube’s expert team is available to guide specifiers on appropriate combinations for compliance-critical areas.
