SEFAR AntiBac Technology
Minimizes the colonization of micro-organisms / bacteria on filter fabrics in the areas of food, non-food and medicine.
Equipping yarn/fabrics with silver
Sefar has developed a special anti-microbial fabric that does not need any coating and is nonetheless highly efficient.
The silver particles integrated in the polymer are a fixed component of the yarn.
This minimizes the breakdown of silver particles through thermal and mechanical stress. It also achieves a good repository effect.
Affect on micro-organisms
The yarn generates a permanent 'protective cloak' and inhibits or prevents any microbial or bacterial regrowth.
Micro-organism tries to form a colony and absorbs Ag+
Micro-organism dies off after contamination with Ag+
