"Living at your desk" can be a must for 24/7 operators

Eating lunch at your desk is a bad idea from a hygiene perspective, but a necessary hazard when you’re working in a 24/7 environment. With traditional, seamed work surfaces, this can create problems. Initially, “edge-banded” work surfaces used glue-on, plastic strips to cover the exposed sides of particle board or MDF. The goal? To deliver the look of a solid, more valuable material. Unfortunately, these plastic strips ended up serving as a hiding place for crumbs and liquid spills—and an invisible haven for hair, debris, dust mites, and even germs that can spread COVID-19 and the flu.

Beyond clean: 3D laminate is safe and healthy on all fronts

In addition to delivering the clean solution for your work surfaces, 3D laminate stands head and shoulders above the competition. Few (if any!) manufacturers of consoles can claim they have 3D laminate that has been independently tested and verified for fire safety, environmental health, and resistance to stains and cross-contamination. 

• Class-A Fire Rating
  A Class A has low flame spread and, thus, the highest performance rating of less than 25. Most commercial wood species have a flame spread index between 90 and 160.
• Low-VOC Certification
  Many common household and office products emit VOCs (volatile organic compounds) that release dangerous vapors into the work environment. All Xybix consoles and workstations are Greenguard Certified from top-to-bottom for optimum air quality.
• Resistant to Staining and Cross-contamination
  Our 3D laminate materials were tested for resistance to staining, etching, and cross contamination. Using institutional-grade disinfectants and hard-surface cleaners, a third-party, degreed chemist assigned our 3D laminate specimens scores of “acceptable” and “passing” for:
  •  All three classes of levels of commercial disinfection and cleaning materials
  •  common residues ranging from alcohol and cooking oil to sugar, tea, coffee, and salt.
