University of Arizona study proves textile technology effectively eliminates pathogens of all types
Fine Hygienic Holding (FHH), a leading wellness group and manufacturer of hygienic paper products, has released the results of scientific testing conducted by the University of Arizona which confirms that Livinguard technology incorporated in its Fine Guard masks effectively neutralizes pathogens of all kinds upon contact, including Human coronavirus.
The scientific tests, conducted by the Tucson University’s Department of Environmental Studies under the supervision of Charles Gerba PhD, showed that the textile technology, made in partnership with Swiss microbiology and material sciences company Livinguard, effectively eliminates pathogens of all types, including Covid-19.
The anti-viral, anti-bacterial Fine Guard is already available in the MENA markets including UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan, and Livinguard is currently working with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the results of the testing, with the aim to introduce masks treated with the Livinguard technology into the US market in the coming weeks.
“As a leader in the wellness and hygiene industry, FHH is dedicated to providing hygienic solutions which go beyond the set market standards,” commented James Michael Lafferty, CEO, FHH.
Fine Guard face masks are reusable for up to two years and can be washed up to 30 times with hand soap and warm water, offering a more sustainable alternative than disposable masks.
