On November 5, 2024, LAMILUX AntiBac, an innovative product from LAMILUX Composites GmbH, was awarded the “Best Food Safety Innovation of the Decade” at the Gulfood Manufacturing 2024 exhibition in Dubai. The award ceremony took place at “The Theater at the Fairmont Hotel,” recognizing groundbreaking developments that sustainably impact the food and beverage industry and set the highest standards in safety and efficiency.

LAMILUX AntiBac stands out with its unique, self-disinfecting surface. Thanks to innovative microsilver technology, the material is capable of destroying 99.9% of bacteria, including multi-resistant strains, within 24 hours. This feature makes LAMILUX AntiBac an ideal solution for applications in hygiene-critical areas of food processing and storage, where stringent hygiene standards are essential.

Maximum hygiene for food processing and storage

In areas where strict national and international hygiene standards must be upheld, LAMILUX AntiBac plays a key role in reducing bacterial contamination. Even under challenging conditions, its antibacterial effect remains constant, preventing the growth of bacteria such as Campylobacter, Pseudomonas, and E. coli, thereby significantly lowering the risk of bacterial contamination.

With over 70 years of experience, LAMILUX stands for durable, resilient materials “Made in Germany.” The AntiBac technology enhances the LAMILUX portfolio by offering the food industry hygienic, cost-efficient, and low-maintenance solutions that meet the highest standards of cleanliness.
