Polymer-Treated Anti-Microbial Hospital Curtains

With an intention to eliminate hospital-acquired infections caused by harmful microorganisms such as viruses, pathogens, molds and fungi that come into contact with the curtains installed in the hospital premises, Nano Mask Inc has unwrapped antimicrobial curtains. The curtains are developed using the nano silver technology. As part of this technology, an antimicrobial colloid composed of silver nanoparticles is treated with polymers.

Charged magnetic waves coming out of silver nano particles not only kill the viruses, they also stop them to reproduce further. Nano silver technology is tested to have the ability to eradicate Staphylococcus aureus and its sub-species ATCC 6538P, Klebsiella pneumonia and gram negative ATCC 4352. The curtains are also flame-, mildew- and dust proof; anti-static; disposable and recyclable. Presently available in the US and Europe, the curtains come in three different styles and 13 different colors.
