Seal Shield Silver Seal washable keyboard

Washable keyboards have been around for a while but the Silver Seal is the only one we know that's dishwasher safe. Computer keyboards are dirt magnets, you’ll find everything from yesterday’s lunch to stray hairs between the keys and they are hard to clean.

With the Silver Seal you’ll be able to give it a good scrub in soap and water thanks to its waterproofing technology and it's also coated in antimicrobial protection to prevent the growth of bacteria.

We’ve been testing the Qwerty tapper out in the office and it works just like any other keyboard, the only difference being that spilling water over it doesn’t lead to drastic consequences. The keys are laser etched so there’s no need to worry about them fading from washing either.

The Silver Seal washable keyboard is available now for £39.95 from Firebox.
