Textile Protection for a fresher You

Be smart, stop odors before they even start!

 

✓ Long lasting freshness

✓ Reduces bacteria while ensuring hygiene

✓ Safe and Sustainable Chemistry


SilvadurTM delivers "intelligent" microbial control technology
Using a patented, controlled-release technology, Silvadur™ delivers a low concentration of silver ions to fabric surfaces to control malodor-generating bacteria and substantially reduce waste. The revolutionary technology contained in Silvadur™ is the world’s first and only aqueous-base-silver-polymer delivery system​

 

There are several reasons why so many customers are satisfied using our Silvadur™ technology:

 

  • Long-lasting freshness thanks to odor-inhibiting effect 
    Conserves resources: the odor-inhibiting effect of SilvadurTM means that clothing can be washed less frequently. Fewer washes result in longer-lasting clothing.
  • SilvadurTM is more resource-efficient than alternative products such as nanoparticles, salts or crystals thanks to its effective dosing system.
  • Clothing treated with SilvadurTM is stable to light and heat.
  • SilvadurTM is OEKO-Tex Label certified . It does not irritate or sensitize the skin.
  • SilvadurTM is suitable for natural and synthetic fibers.

How does Silvadur work?

SilvadurTM is applied to the textile fibers during textile production, for example by exhaustion or spraying. The silver-polymer technology is evenly distributed over the garment and can withstand up to 40 washes at high temperatures.

KEY PERFROMANCE INDICATORS

UNIQUE DELIVERY SYSTEM

 

Silvadur™ uses a patented polymer technology to deliver silver ions via an “intelligent control” mechanism. When bacteria land on the surface of treated articles, the silver ion inactivate odor causing microorganisms, resulting in effective microbe-derived protection. Silvadur™ binds to bacterial DNA preventing replication, causing changes to the cellular membrane so it cannot function properly.

 

Silvadur™ technology is particle free and readily water-dilutable, forming phase stable and solids-free finishing bath solutions for easy and rapid processing of fabric when used appropriately. The product is dilutable in textile treatment baths and forms an insoluble interpenetrating polymer network with silver ions when applied to a fabric.

EASY TO USE

 

Silvadur™ offers light- and heat-stable application performance, durable antimicrobial protection for a wide range of textile products.

 

  • Silvadur™ is effective on both natural and synthetic fabrics, is compatible with a broad range of common textile additives, detergents, and other finishing treatments.
  • Fabrics treated with Silvadur™ require less heat and less time without extra binders or added steps during the application process.
  • When applied to fabric surfaces and textile products, Silvadur™ does not impact their feel or aesthetic property of the treated article.

UNMATCHED ANTIMICROBIAL PROTECTION

Silvadur™ vs. Silver Nanotechnology

 

  • Nanoparticle-based silver products rely on silver metal particles that don’t easily dissolve in water, providing a less uniform finish

Silvadur™ vs. Silver Chloride & Particle Based Systems

 

  • Traditional silver-based antimicrobials deliver silver particles to the fabric surface & rely on silver particle leaching or slow dissolution of poorly-soluble silver salts to control bacteria.
  • Silver particulate size and indiscriminate release of silver can cause discoloration & reduced antimicrobial performance over time, causing a non-uniform antimicrobial finish during the manufacturing process, leading to higher cost-to-treat & poor quality.

 

Silvadur™ vs. Quat Silanes

 

  • Quat Silanes can be difficult to control, require careful dilution, formulation & processing conditions.
  • Quat Silane treated fabrics can become water repellant, requiring more chemicals & costs to control hydrophobicity.
