For years, the Italian specialist supplier KC – Wearable Technologies from Lonato del Garda, with offices in China and Wolfratshausen, has been working intensively on wearable technologies.

The Silverguard series is new to the portfolio. These are textiles, which consist of 20% pure silver. “It has been proven that these products destroy coronaviruses in a very short time,” says Dominik Kufner, who heads the German subsidiary KC Textil GmbH in Geretsried. In order to investigate the effects of silver textiles on coronaviruses, the company states that it has worked with the Experimental Zooprophylactic Institute of Venezie (IZSVe). The institute conducts prevention, research and services in the fields of animal health and food safety.

The subject of the study was the Silverguard products Jupiter, Earth and Vega.

“The results were remarkable in terms of both the effectiveness and the speed of viral destruction,” said Kufner.

Particularly astonishing results were recorded with the product Jupiter: This woven material produced an immediate impairment of viral reproduction and a viral destruction rate of 68% in the first five minutes. After 15 minutes, the viral destruction rate was 93%.

“No other textile product known to us has ever shown viral destruction at this rate.”

The fabric is suitable, for example, as a pocket lining, but it can also be used to make silver pouches, handkerchiefs and other accessories.

“Vega”, an elastic knitted material, is suitable for bags, gloves and wipes.

All three materials can also be used in antiviral facemasks.

· Silver pockets are being integrated in garments or handbags. They destroy bacteria and viruses on facemasks, smartphones, gloves or any other objects that are put into them.
· Silver pouches and handkerchiefs are being sold as useful fashion accessories in this pandemic.
· Facemasks are being created, which offer viral destruction.

We now have a very exciting announcement to all current and future users of Silverguard products. In cooperation with the Experimental Zooprophylactic Institute of the Venezie (IZSVe), KC Wearable Technologies Srl. has explored the effects of silver textiles on Coronaviruses. The IZSVe is a public health authority in northern Italy, which carries out prevention, research and services in the areas of animal health and food safety.

The studies have now been concluded. The Silverguard products „Jupiter“, „Earth“ and „Vega“ were subject of this analysis, including pre-trials and final laboratory tests. The results were remarkable, in terms of both the effectiveness and the speed of viral destruction.

While all products have performed well, the woven pocketing product “Jupiter” exceeded all expectations. It caused an immediate impairment of viral reproduction and a viral destruction rate of 68% in only the first five minutes. Full destruction occurred after only 15 minutes. Most textiles with anti-viral finishings take several hours to do this kind of damage. This proves our theory that the very high pure silver content of over 20%, results in an amazing speed of viral destruction.

For further background information, we invite you to review our updated product summary. As a courtesy to the IZSVe, the full test report is being sent selectively, only to interested customers.
