Shieldex® Med-tex P130
A knitted fabric metallized with silver, consists of 22% elastomer, which makes it stretchable in two directions. The textile was specially developed for medical applications as well as for skin diseases, especially neurodermatitis. The conductive textile is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified and can therefore be worn next to the skin. Silver is a biocidal active ingredient according to §67 of the EU Biocide Regulation.
Shieldex® Med-tex P130 is a hybrid knitted fabric metallized with pure silver. The antimicrobial textile is 78% polyamide and 22% elastane, with the elastane knitted in the warp and weft directions. This processing allows the material to stretch on both sides. Due to the lower silver content of approx. 20%, Shieldex® Med-tex P130 is mainly used in medical products. In particular, it is used as an antimicrobial additive in the clothing industry to alleviate skin diseases such as neurodermatitis and the associated symptoms. The antimicrobial knitted fabric is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified. RoHS and REACH conformity is given.
