When put to the test, Electra’s innovative glass outlasts its competitors
every time. With an unmatchable resistance to the most frequent
causes of breakage, Electra continues to exhibit strength even after
250 professional wash cycles. That’s over 200 washes more than its
competitors. Tests show that after 50 professional wash cycles, the
competitors’ untreated glass resistance reduced greatly by 64%, while
Electra’s advanced XLT treated glass reduced resistance by only 12%.
