Producing foams, pillows and fibers for the mattress industry, Form Sünger (Foam) Company maintains a leadership position in the industry as a dependable and reliable provider with consumer oriented growth strategies and continuous development geared to meet changing market conditions.
The company has a new innovative product called “ProtectForm”. ProtectForm is an ultimate barrier against many types of microbial threats inside a mattress. Today hygiene has been getting more importance. We, humans, have been sparing one third of our life in bed. That is why mattress materials are very important terms of comfort and health. That’s why ProtectForm makes a lot of sense because it has advantages as:
- A highly active microbicide is covalently bonded to a substrate, include synthetic, cellulosic or wool fibers, webs or fabrics, pu.
- No migration to the skin or the environment,
- Does not allow for the development of adaptive organisms,
- No zone of inhibition
o The microbicide is bonded.
o Does not migrate from the substrate.
o Continuous action isn’t depleted.
o Launderable without loss of efficacy.
- Safe for humans and the environment
- To adhere on surface, and carry a positive charge which creates an “electromagnetic” attraction between the negative charged microorganisms; Schematic structural depiction of covalently immobilized (alkyl alkoxysilane Quarternary ammonium salt) used as microbicidal coatings.
FEATURES OF PROTECTFORM
- Highly effective against pathogenic bacteria,
- Virucidal and fungicidal,
- Is effective with gram(+)/gram(-) bacteria, fungi, molds and mildew,
- Offers greater protection against infections,
- rapid absorbency, high absorbent capacity,
- Hemostatic effect,
- Launderable,
- Has a permanent antimicrobial effect,
- Helps reduce transfer of bacteria
- Inhibits the growth of bacteria on and in textiles,
