*Meshcut curtains do not meet US NFPA 13 specifications and are not suitable in areas that require mesh for sprinkler access.
DISCLAIMER: Whilst Endurocide® Sporicidal Printed Curtains have been independently tested to be antimicrobially and sporicidally effective, the actual length of curtain use achieved will depend on a variety of factors including, but not limited to: individual hospital practices; the natural longevity of polypropylene; the risk of the curtain being soiled from items such as blood, urine and general spills; etc. Curtains should always be replaced when visibly soiled. Any timescales provided/referenced are always offered as a guideline only and under no circumstances whatsoever constitute a guarantee.
Our Endurocide® Printed Curtains use the same biocidal technology as our Premium Antimicrobial & Sporicidal Curtains to provide patented infection prevention technology against spores, bacteria and fungi.
Why is this technology needed?
Traditional polyester curtains, or standard polypropylene curtains that haven’t been treated with an antimicrobial agent can quickly & easily become sources of pathogenic transmission:
Why our technology is different
Endurocide® Printed Curtains significantly reduce the risk of hospital acquired infections (HAIs) being transferred via curtains by care workers, patients and visitors.
Our Endurocide® Premium Curtains are impregnated with a patented liquid formulation that both traps pathogens on the surface of the curtain, helping to prevent the fabric from becoming a source of pathogenic transmission.

Sporistatic & Bacteriostatic testing
Qualitative “Zone of Inhibition” tests demonstrate that the fabric is sporistatic and bacteriostatic and whether it can prevent pathogens from growing and reproducing on treated fabric. The International Standard for bacteriostatic & sporistatic fabrics we use is CG 147.

How do you store Endurocide® Printed Curtains?
All Endurocide® Curtains should be stored at ambient temperatures (i.e. 25°C max) and out of UV light.
Polypropylene remains stable for approximately 12 months (if stored as above), but after this time will start to gradually degrade. This degradation process will occur at a faster rate in the presence of warm/high temperatures, humid conditions and most importantly in the presence of UV light.
Are there any instructions supplied with Endurocide® Curtains?
Yes: every box of curtains includes an Instruction Sheet in order to give our end users clear information on how to use and get the most out of their curtains. To download a copy, please click here.
Can I clean or wipe Endurocide® Disposable Curtains?
No: it is not advised to clean any of our curtains by any mechanical means - disposable curtains are designed to be replaced when visibly soiled. Regarding Endurocide® Printed Curtains, wiping or cleaning them may affect the performance of the patented sporicidal formulation coated onto the curtain surface. The curtains are designed to kill pathogens in situ and do not require any cleaning to improve function. When any of our curtains become visibly soiled, they should always be replaced.
Can I leave Endurocide® Printed Curtains in-situ when disinfecting with a misting/fogging machine?
No: it is recommended that Endurocide® Printed Curtains are taken down when disinfecting with a misting/fogging machine. The peroxide used in such operations may react with the patented formulation and over time reduce the effectiveness against pathogens. The use of peroxide is also likely to affect the labels affixed to the curtains. This will be visible a discoloration of the lettering of the curtain label.
Can I hang Endurocide® Printed Curtains in areas of direct sunlight?
It is advised that Endurocide® Printed Curtains are not placed in areas where they are exposed to prolonged direct sunlight.
Although the curtains will still be effective against pathogens, the polypropylene material the curtains are made from is not UV resistant and may suffer accelerated ageing as a result. This will lead to a loss in tensile strength and elasticity of the curtains. This will become visible as “pilling”. This is caused by the fibres in the polypropylene becoming brittle with UV exposure and coming loose from the main fibre chains and breaking down.
This effect is normally only observed after several months in direct sunlight.
Any timescales provided/referenced are always offered as a guideline only and under no circumstances whatsoever constitute a guarantee.
How often do Endurocide® Printed Curtains need to be replaced?
Due to the nature of polypropylene and the fact that the curtains are designed to be disposable, Endurocide® Printed Hospital Curtains should be removed after up to 12 months of use in-situ, or earlier if visibly soiled.
Each hospital will have its own specific protocols and assessments regarding the changing of curtains and these should be adhered to. We would however recommend that all curtains should be replaced whenever they are visibly dirty.
Any timescales provided/referenced are always offered as a guideline only and under no circumstances whatsoever constitute a guarantee.
Are there any guarantees offered on Endurocide® Sporicidal Printed Curtains Curtains?
No: Whilst Endurocide® Sporicidal Printed Curtains have been independently tested to be antimicrobially and sporicidally effective, the actual length of curtain use achieved will depend on a variety of factors including, but not limited to: individual hospital practices; the natural longevity of polypropylene; the risk of the curtain being soiled from items such as blood, urine and general spills; etc. Curtains should always be replaced when visibly soiled.
Any timescales provided/referenced are always offered as a guideline only and under no circumstances whatsoever constitute a guarantee.
How should you dispose of used Endurocide® Curtains?
All Endurocide® Curtains are manufactured from 100% recyclable polypropylene. However, as the curtains are designed to come in contact with potential hospital pathogens, we would recommend that after use, Endurocide® Curtains be disposed of as hospital waste or in accordance with local regulations.
For those customers concerned with the whole life of their products, there is the possibility of incinerating the curtains after use for their calorific value. Polypropylene has a high calorific value and one full width curtain could potentially generate enough energy to light a standard light bulb for an hour and a half.
However, any hospital specific protocols or local regulations concerning the safe disposal of clinical waste should always be adhered to.
What pack sizes do Endurocide® Curtains come in?

How do I know I'm choosing the correct hook for my railing system?
When choosing the type of hook you order with your curtain, it’s important that you order the correct size to fit your railing - and with so many types of railings available worldwide, this is sometimes easier said than done!
There are two ways to help ensure the hook will be suitable for your railing:

If you would like a sample pack of the different hooks we have available, please contact us.
Please note: it is important to ensure that the same hook is used throughout your Curtain. You should never mix hooks types or hook suppliers on one Curtain, as even similar type hooks can have significant differences in dimensions. To ensure uniform glide of your Curtain in the railing, rails should be regularly cleaned, free from obstacles or gaps and all hooks should be hung at the same height. Bio Technics accepts no responsibility for the performance of railings.
* The railings given are examples of commonly available systems - it is not meant to suggest that this is the only system that these hooks are suitable for use with.
** The X and Y measurements are not applicable to our U-Type hooks as these are designed to fit over the railing.
