Description
Shielding fabric for bed linen and clothing, OEKO-TEX Standard 100.
Finest copper threads are coated with silver for optimal compatibility. To rule out electrical conductivity and prevent oxidation, the metal thread is then coated with polyester. Now the whole thing is covered with cotton and the resulting yarn is twisted with a second, pure cotton yarn.
The shielding effect of the ultra-fine metal grid in the fabric prevents electromagnetic radiation from penetrating.
The particularly dense fabric is very hard-wearing.
