What is Nano-Zinc?
Nano-Zinc is a highly effective antibacterial and antifungal agent, characterized by its extremely small particle size. While zinc might not initially seem remarkable, it plays a vital role in human health—our bodies require approximately 15 milligrams of zinc daily. Moreover, zinc is consumer-friendly and safe, making it a reliable choice for antimicrobial applications.
Why Does PERMA® Choose Nano-Zinc Over Other Antimicrobial Agents?
Unlike heavy metals used as antibacterial agents, which can be toxic to human cells and harmful to the environment, zinc is a natural mineral that is non-toxic and eco-friendly when used within regulated amounts. The antimicrobial mechanism of Nano-Zinc occurs through the induction of moisture and oxygen in the air, producing hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). This destabilizes bacterial cells, preventing their growth.
This natural and safe process makes Nano-Zinc an ideal choice for PERMA’s products, offering effective bacteria-fighting power without the harmful side effects associated with heavy metals.
How Does Nano-Zinc Work in PERMA® Products?
PERMA® integrates Nano-Zinc technology into its textile fibers to inhibit bacterial growth. When bacteria encounter the hydrogen peroxide generated by Nano-Zinc particles, their cellular balance is disrupted, stopping them from multiplying. This innovative technology:
- Is embedded directly into the fibers, ensuring durability.
- Does not peel or wash out, even after more than 150 washes.
- Safe for users and the environment.
