SwissCotton Silver combines the natural properties of cotton and silver in a new top-quality yarn! Cotton is distinguished by excellent wear-comfort. X-Static, a polyamide fiber coated with pure silver, delivers excellent antimicrobial, anti-odor, antistatic and therapeutic characteristics. In addition, X-Static’s conductive properties help regulate temperature: It’s warm in winter and cool in summer.
Thanks to these characteristics, which are maintained even after numerous washings, X-Static is perfectly suited for sports and everyday life. Because silver is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent, it’s also used in medical applications. Wound-care, the treatment of neurodermatitis and athlete’s foot are examples of a wide range of possible applications.
As a natural product, pure silver is perfectly safe for people. There is no indication of allergies or any adverse reactions. Leading institutions around the world have confirmed the excellent characteristics of X-Static.
