Q1. How long does MaxGuard technology last?
MaxGuard™ technology, powered by Microban®, remains active for the lifetime of your KalingaStone surface.
Q2. Is MaxGuard technology certified?
Yes. MaxGuard™ (powered by Microban®) is notified under Europe’s Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR), registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and approved for food-contact applications. It’s trusted by leading brands and innovators in over 50 countries.
