What makes WCB so superior?
Seamless, single-piece construction
Every CAREKennel is manufactured from a single, continuous piece of WCB. There are no joins, no welds and no exposed edges, removing the primary points of pathogen accumulation found in conventional kennel construction.
100% waterproof
WCB has a closed-cell PVC-U foam core with a solid PVC outer skin. Both layers are completely impervious to liquid, including urine, disinfectant, steam and high-pressure wash-down. There is no moisture ingress and no swelling.
Chemical resistant
WCB is unaffected by clinical-grade disinfectants. The surface does not corrode, pit or discolour with repeated use, maintaining the same performance and integrity throughout its lifespan.
Active antimicrobial protection, 24/7
WCB incorporates silver ion antibacterial technology built into every sheet. It provides continuous 99.99% antibacterial protection against pathogens including MRSA and E. coli, independent of cleaning cycles.
Thermally stable
WCB maintains ambient warmth rather than the cold surface temperature associated with stainless steel. This is particularly relevant for cats, whose paw pads contain a high concentration of nerve receptors sensitive to temperature.
30%+ noise reduction
CAREKennels deliver over 30% noise reduction compared to conventional kennel materials, contributing to a calmer environment for patients and staff.
Lifetime guarantee
WCB will not corrode, swell or degrade. Every CAREKennel is backed by a lifetime guarantee, at a comparable price to stainless-steel.
