Effective germ defence and prevention

Wherever a large number of people come together, there is a high risk of infection due to bacteria, viruses and other germs. JUNG SILVERPLUS® material technology helps to reduce the risk.

Effectively complement standard hygiene measures: With antimicrobial surfaces for light switches, sockets, motion detectors and building control products, we offer professional solutions from our electrical installation range.

SILVERPLUS® how it works

SILVERPLUS® is a functional surface independent of the type, function or form of the JUNG products. SILVERPLUS® is neither a paint nor a coating. This product of material technology does not wear off, cannot be washed out and does not deteriorate. A simulation in a laboratory proved an effectiveness for at least 15 years.

The SILVERPLUS® material technology is based on silver ions (Ag+). They are emitted from the SILVERPLUS® surface and counteract bacteria and pathogens in different ways.

has an antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral effect
acts against bacteria (e.g. Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Acinetobacter baumannii)
reduces the bacterial load on surfaces within 24 hours by over 99.99 % (> 4 log steps)
reduces the viral load on surfaces
effective against enveloped viruses (such as the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2)

prevents and disrupts the growth of fungi
continuously effective (24/7)
does not contain any chemical biocides and
is odourless
works independently of light

The SILVERPLUS® operating principle

Acting in combination with Ag+ ions on the exterior of a pathogen, its adherence on the product surface is reduced and increases the permeability of the envelope. The conditions for growth and reproduction of a pathogen are thereby impaired.

Ag+ ions disrupt protein-based mechanisms as regards the signal processing and matter transfer (metabolic process) of the outer layer of microorganisms. In the process, Ag+ ions react particularly with sulphurous components of amino acids, which are components of important proteins (enzymes). As a result of these reactions, the proteins that are vital for the micro-organisms are deactivated and denatured.

In addition, silver ions can also damage the bacteria internally. In particular, the Ag+ ions react with the DNA of the germ, as a result of which its reproduction and multiplication is disrupted

Tested technology

Apart from bacteria, the SILVERPLUS® antibacterial surface is also effective against mould and enveloped viruses. In laboratory tests, performed in each case on four different bacteria and fungi as well as an enveloped virus, experts from independent testing institutes established that the antimicrobial surface proactively inhibits the growth and reproduction of the test germs and significantly reduces the number of pathogens.

Operation without hand contact

Greater hygiene with no contact: As an alternative to light switches, motion detectors can be installed in many areas. Particularly in much frequented areas such as corridors, stairwells and communal areas, the automatic control of functions effectively reduces the risk of infection. Motion detectors and presence detectors also offer additional hygiene, security and comfort in private living spaces.

Elbow-operated switches

The hands-free operation of automatic doors eliminates a significant risk of infection. The JUNG elbow-operated switches in robust stainless steel are particularly solid. Their large switch area allows fast and simple operation in passing

Motion detector

The 180° detection range of the JUNG motion detector is monitored by two sensors that can be used individually or together. In this way, difficult room situations such as very small rooms, WCs or stairways can also be optimally covered.

Presence detectors

Ceiling detectors / presence detectors are particularly suited for installation in larger public buildings. They are protected by the safe installation height. The devices are available for different systems from JUNG.

Automatic switching

Protection against infection has also gained significance in smaller offices and commercial buildings as well as in the private residential sector. The JUNG HOME and das LB Management offer simple solutions for contact-free building control here. In the commercial sector, individually programmed background lighting at defined times during the day ensures additional security.

Smart building technology

Lighting, shading, temperature, ventilation – our intelligent technology automatically interlinks all the key functions within the building. This reduces contact with switches, operating elements or door handles to a minimum. Used according to requirements and individually adaptable, the building technology helps to effectively reduce the risk of infection.

Lighting

Automatic, demand-controlled and secure: wherever intelligent building controls the lighting, the risk of infection through contact is reduced.

Shading

The automatic control of blinds and shutters including louvre adjustment regulates solar radiation. The control is performed centrally or decentralised.

Room climate

Demand-based control of heating, ventilation and air conditioning ensure not only the individual well-being temperature but also a healthy room climate.

Astro function

More light in the autumn and winter as well as more shadows on hot days: the technology operates functions dependent on the position of the sun - reliably and contact-free.

Multimedia

Multi-rooming in the entire building, TV and entertainment systems and multimedia components can simply be integrated in the smart home system.

Visualisation

Display and operate all the functions via touch displays: via smartphone and tablet even when you are on the move. Unnecessary contact with surfaces is avoided through central control.

Voice command instead of switch

Activate and dim the lighting, switch devices and sockets, call up scenes, operate blinds and shutters: with our intelligent building control, these functions and many others can be simply operated via voice commands and thus completely contact-free. The smart system is compatible with both Amazon Alexa and also with the Google Assistant.

Viruses, bacteria and fungi are most frequently transferred via the hands. As light switches in particular are often touched, we have been running special ranges for hygiene-sensitive areas for many years.

Due to the corona pandemic, the topic of hygiene in public buildings has become increasingly important. Against this background, we have further developed the area of hygiene-sensitive electrical installation. In the production of light switches, sockets, push-buttons and further components, as of now we are using SILVERPLUS® with added silver ions. They disrupt the necessary biochemical processes of the pathogens and thus inhibit their reproduction. The bacterial load of the surface is thus effectively reduced.
