Nanoscale Technology

forcing designers seeking permanent anti-odor performance to compromise in other areas, such as dye performance, hand, stretch,
durability, or manufacturability or environmental responsibility. SmartSilver additives are engineered to be easily used in
existing textile manufacturing equipment, evenly disperse and permanently bond with fiber structures ranging from natural
cotton and wool to rayon, polyester, nylon, and polypropylene. For more information about SmartSilver, please visit http://www.smartsilveronline.com .
