Prolen Siltex® is a polypropylene fiber specially finished with antibacterial additives, notably based on biogenic silver ions (Ag+). As a result, it prevents the proliferation of bacteria, fungi, and mold. The use of Prolen Siltex® fiber reduces the risk of infection spread, eliminates unpleasant odors, and contributes to the skin’s biological balance. The antibacterial additives (silver ions) are incorporated directly into the fiber production material, ensuring that all product properties are preserved throughout its lifespan.
