OVERVIEW
With everyday use, unprotected surfaces and materials naturally support the growth of odor causing bacteria. Miracle Fresh’s patented water-based technology promotes freshness by preventing odors before they start by bonding to the surface and destroying microorganisms as they come into contact. Integrated into textiles at point of manufacture, Miracle Fresh provides safe, durable protection that lasts the life of the article.
Did you know?
Body odor is influenced by the skin flora, especially by the family of Corynebacteria.
Bacteria produce enzymes, breaking down the fat and sugar present in sweat into smelly propionic acid.
By sweating, nutrients like lipids and sugars are transported into textiles where bacteria can feed and rapidly grow, usually doubling every 20 minutes.
Bacteria can cause unpleasant odors, skin discomfort and can shorten the lifespan of a product.
Clothing captures sweat and provides the ideal environment for bacteria growth. Odor elimination technology that is built into the manufacturing process provides consumers with quality garments that stay fresher longer and even require less washing.
As an ideal place for bacteria to grow, socks and footwear are some of the most common sources of unpleasant and unwanted odors. Footwear treated with our odor elimination solution prevents the bacterial growth that causes odor before it starts. We have solutions for every material that goes into the footwear manufacturing process.
From towels to pet care, there are a multitude of uses for our odor control products in and around the home. Used as a laundry additive, SiShield products can extend the freshness of an article for weeks or longer. SiShield also provides an extra layer of odor control for materials that are difficult to wash, like upholstery and carpeting.
Since a lot of outdoor and sports gear is rarely, if ever, washed, it is highly susceptible to odor and staining caused by bacteria growth. Adding our odor control technology during the manufacturing process not only keeps the unwanted odors from occurring, but it also extends the life of the article.
Public transportation like buses, trains, cruise ships and airplanes are prone to odors that linger around for days or weeks. These spaces that see a lot of human traffic can be difficult to clean and keep clean. Odor causing bacteria can’t be eliminated by simply masking the odor. SiShield offers solutions to maintain a more hygienic environment in the transportation industry.
