The Fosshield® silver, and copper ions are given a positive charge and are attracted like a magnet to a microbe’s ion charged surface.
Silver & Copper
By combining both silver and copper, we provide enhanced and faster permanently embedded antimicrobial action. Fosshield® fiber is patented and is the first and only antimicrobial technology to successfully use a balance of silver and copper ions in a fiber.
