SmartSilver™ | Certified Antimicrobial Performance

SmartSilver is an EPA-registered, Oeko-Tex approved antimicrobial nanoscale silver additive created by NanoHorizons Inc., a leader in practical nanotechnology for apparel and footwear, health care, and industrial products.

Silver is a natural antimicrobial. Microbes and fungus can’t survive in the presence of silver ions. The smaller the ionic silver particles, the more silver ions they emit and the more unwanted microbes are eliminated. SmartSilver nanotechnology enables natural silver to produce more microbe fighting silver ions. SmartSilver nanoscale silver particles bind permanently so antimicrobial efficacy and odor elimination last for the product’s expected life. SmartSilver protection doesn’t wash out or wear off. It doesn’t get diluted or neutralized. It keeps working as it was designed to work for as long as the product is used.

SmartSilver antimicrobial silver additives require no compromises in the manufacturing process or in product performance. SmartSilver additives are integration-ready and are compatible with virtually any production process. SmartSilver nanoscale silver additives work invisibly and safely and provide unmatched antimicrobial odor protection. SmartSilver enhanced apparel and footwear stay fresh and odor free. Foams and laminates protected by SmartSilver resist microbe growth that can cause degradation. Coatings and plastics formulated with SmartSilver protection prevent the growth of mildew and odor build up. Hospital products that incorporate SmartSilver additives help control bacteria on surfaces. SmartSilver offers a cost effective, durable, safe, and efficacious solution for improving health outcomes, enhancing personal wellness and comfort, and bettering product preservation—an outstanding value proposition to both manufacturers and consumers alike.
