An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
PurThread offers another effective and durable tool for clinics and healthcare facilities in the fight to prevent infections.
fabrics in extreme conditions and worn unwashed for long durations offer bacteria and fungus a hospitable environment.
MRSA Is becoming a scourge among athletes, affecting those playing close-contact sports and sports subject to skin abrasions the most.
There are frightening organisms that are increasingly making headlines for breeding disease, discomfort and distress in places meant to make us healthier, not sicker—hospitals, medical centers and dental offices, gyms and athletic facilities to name a few.
University studies show PurThread kills 99.99% of these organisms within four hours of contact with its fabric surface. Further studies show PurThread keeps up this ability after many washes, making it the most durable antimicrobial fiber available.
In an environment where the threat of hospital acquired infections, food-borne illnesses, and athletic-related staph infections remains high, PurThread may be an addition to the infection prevention toolbox that is as easy and cost-effective as it is valuable.
