Gtechniq I1 V3 Smart Fabric AB Overview
Gtechniq I1 V3 Smart Fabric AB protects all kinds of fabrics from water-based stains while remaining breathable and extremely durable. Thanks to Gtechniq’s unique scientific formula, extensive independent testing (ISO 6330 5A and AATCC 22) has proven Smart Fabric AB to last up to four times longer than market-leading alternatives.
With newly added antimicrobial technology, treated surfaces actively kill up to 99% of bacteria while also preventing mould and mildew from developing. This makes Gtechniq I1 V3 Smart Fabric AB ideal for interior use, helping protect you and your family from harmful germs.
