Sanitized to debut at Interzum in Guangzhou

16th March 2009, Burgdorf, Switzerland - Demand is growing around the world for bedding with integrated hygienic function and Switzerland's Sanitized AG, the leading specialist for antimicrobial hygiene concepts, will be present at the Interzum in Guangzhou for the first time showing its individual solutions for mattresses and bedding hygiene management. Quality testing is carried out by SGS Shanghai according to Swiss standards.

Unpleasant odours caused by bacteria, allergic reactions to dust mites and fungi, or bedbugs in bedding material are particularly unwelcome in hospitals and hotels. Consumers also increasingly demand lasting hygienically clean mattresses and bed linens for their private use as well.

Sanitized AG offers individual solutions, which guarantee that mattresses and bedding are always fresh and free of unwanted bacteria, dust mites, bedbugs or fungi. Together with its customers, an optimum formula is developed for the intended application as part of its project management. Furthermore, manufacturers benefit from the long experience of the Sanitized experts in the form of tailor-made application recommendations. Sanitized’s hygiene function is permanently applied to the textiles used in mattresses and bedding material during the manufacturing process.

Through a cooperation arrangement with the Shanghai office of the world-leading testing and certification firm Societe Generale de Surveillance (SGS), quality testing according to Sanitized standards with documentation of the microbial effectiveness can be carried out directly in China.

Sanitized will present its hygiene function for bedding and mattresses at the Interzum Guangzhou together with its global distribution partner, Clariant, in hall 11.2, booth C15.
