SmartSilver™ Certified Antimicrobial Performance
SmartSilver™ is a certified performance brand for antimicrobial products created by NanoHorizons. Silver is a natural antimicrobial. That means that microbes—germs—can’t survive in the presence of silver ions. Silver ions released from the surface of silver molecules, however, are harmless to people. The best way to kill more unwanted microbes is to generate the most silver ions possible. That’s exactly what SmartSilver’s nanotechnology does. And because SmartSilver’s nanotechnology also produces silver particles that bind at the molecular level, SmartSilver protection doesn’t wash out. It doesn’t wear off. It doesn’t get diluted or neutralized by sweat or detergents. It keeps working as it was designed to work for as long as the product exists.
Products undergoing SmartSilver’s antimicrobial performance certification are quality tested up front and through to the finished product stage. In this way, products branded with the SmartSilver logo are assured of offering the best antimicrobial protection available. To learn more, contact us or visit www.smartsilveronline.com.
