Silver fiber fabrics are highly innovative and have a layer of pure silver permanently bonded to the surface of the fiber.
Silver ions are electrically charged atoms, as they are deprived of one or more electrons. They have remarkable sanitizing and antibacterial properties and are therefore used to create different types of objects, including textile fibers.
The ancient Romans already used this precious metal for healing purposes, using it to disinfect wounds and to conserve drinking water. In the royal courts it was customary to feast using silver vessels and cutlery; actually, already at that time it was believed that silver had the power to fight bacteria and disinfect.
Today, thanks to scientific-technological studies in the textile field, silver fiber is used in latest generation products to meet the growing need for well-being and hygiene.
