1. SILVER FIBRE Fabric
Modern medicine recognises that silver is the most effective antimicrobial agent.
 Antimicrobial
During the early 1900s, silver was actually used as a primary antibiotic: it was in fact applied in thin sheets to heal wounds. For the past ten years or so, silver fibre obtained by a layer of pure silver combined with a textile fibre has been employed in both industrial sectors and the field of medicine. Recently, silver fibre has made its appearance in a broad range of consumer products, responding to the need for a safe and effective remedy against the formation of microbes.
Antistatic
Silver is the element displaying the highest electrical conductivity properties.
This characteristic enables it to instantly dissipate bothersome electrostatic charges.
Radiating and Reflecting
Regularises body temperature thanks to its radiating capacity (conserving heat generated by the human body)
and reflecting capacity (uniformly distributing the same heat from the human body externally).
Permanent Effect
The silver fibre is irreversibly linked to a polymer so as to physically become one with the fibre, thereby guaranteeing
the duration of its antimicrobial function over time.
This function is permanently resistant to numerous washings.
Antimicrobial Mechanism of Silver Ions
Silver ions react and link up with enzymes and multiplying microbes to extinguish them.
Odour-Proof
It is a proven fact that silver fibre presents superior odour-proof properties.
