Not only that, Amicor has proven durability to upto 100 washes which makes the curtains almost permanently anti-microbial. There is already a lot of excitement in our team and the customers on the product and we will be developing many more products in addition to the curtains with Amicor” Thaveechai Sirikulthada, director of Gold House Décor, said in a press release.
