POLYGIENE ANTI-BACTERIAL ODOUR CONTROL
Swedish company Polygiene are leading in garment treatments that prevent the buildup of bacteria on clothing and skin. This benefits skin health by preventing surface infections and also removes unpleasant odours created by bacterial breakdown of sweat. Not a pleasant subject but we all sweat; this regulates temperature, lubricates the skin and washes oils and dirt out of our pores. Unfortunately, this also provides everything bacteria wants to multiply. Polygiene uses Silver ions (naturally occuring) to prevent the bacteria multiplying. This is a two-pronged attack interrupting the genetic programming of bacteria and also preventing them producing more cell surface which they need to divide in two.
