Materials
Aluminium
Novoescocia® 4 Mini is a prole made by extrusion of aluminium. Its coating improves the corrosion
resistance and provides properties for control of microbial deterioration.
The aluminium is a material with excellent chemical, physical and mechanical properties. It is lightweight,
tough, ductile, malleable and highly durable.
Zamak
The complementary pieces of Novoescocia® 4 Mini are made of Zamak. The zamak is a non ferrous
alloy of zinc with aluminium, magnesium and copper (UNE EN 1774). It is tough, has high hardness, high
mechanical strength and excellent plastic deformability.
The surface nish applied, protects the prole and is similar to Novoescocia® 4 Mini’s nishes.

Control of the microbial deterioration
Page 2 of 3
Novoescocia® 4 mini has a specic coating which protects the initial properties of materials and
objects where it’s applied through the control of microbial deterioration. The technology applied to the
prole is a volatile compound resistant to high temperatures. Its ecacy extends along the prole’s life
and doesn’t suffer detriment in its activity because it’s not eliminated through daily cleaning.
Novoescocia® 4 Mini prevents, on the surface of its prole, the growth and migration of bacteria,
fungi, yeasts and molds, interfering with the gas permeability of the membrane (cellular breathing). In
this way, microorganism lose quickly its ability to grow and reproduce, producing its destruction. The
probability that microorganisms develope resistance to treatment is very low.
Novoescocia® 4 Mini is effective against a large number of bacteria among which are: Legionella
neumophilia,Escherichia Coli, Salmonella, Staphylococcos Aureus (SARM), Listeria Monocytogenes,
Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, Streptococcus Faecalis, Vibrio Parahaemolyticus y Enterobacter Aerogenes.
