World’s first Biomaster/Verimaster treated fabric

original-biomaster-logo.jpg

Addmaster proudly unveils another world first – a fabric treated with Biomaster and our Verimaster Security additive.

The first polyester textile treated with Biomaster and Verimaster is designed for use in care home furnishings. The Biomaster antimicrobial additive will stop the growth of bacteria and fungi on the textile, while the Verimaster Security agent proves that Biomaster has been added.

With many fabrics and products produced and treated in overseas factories far away from the main office headquarters, quality control can sometimes not be a stringent as it would on home ground. Verimaster adds covert quality control to your additive, guaranteeing that you receive the genuine product when it leaves the factory.

*Please note that Addmaster was acquired by the Polygiene Group AB in January 2021, so all news articles prior to that date will still be branded as Addmaster.
