People everywhere are more concerned than ever before about the spread of bacteria, mold, and mildew. Consumers are demanding products that contribute to a cleaner, safer environment. Proven effective against a broad spectrum of mold, fungi, bacteria, including MRSA, and the SARS, Norwalk, and H5N1 viruses, Fosshield's patented fiber technology brings permanent, natural and effective antimicrobial protection to your textile products. 

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The key to the effectiveness of Fosshield's antimicrobial agent is the unique and balanced combination of silver and copper ions, bonded to a ceramic material. Moisture in the environment, the same moisture required for microbes to grow, initiates the release of silver and copper ions from the fibers. These ions deactivate the microbe's metabolism, cause respiratory failure, and prevent the microbe from reproducing. The maximum release rate ensures continuous antimicrobial action for the life of the product.
