Products include patient gowns (regular and 10x), sheets (top sheet, draw sheet, ICU sheet and knitted fitted sheet), blankets (bath blankets and thermal blankets), pillowcases, towels and washcloths.[/vc_column_text][/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”How does the Cupron technology work? “][vc_column_text]Cupron’s proprietary copper formulations release copper ions. When bacteria and copper ions come into contact, the copper ions weaken the outer membrane of the bacteria cell through the process of oxidation. Copper is toxic to the inside of the cell and, eventually, the copper ions cause the cell to rupture. The cell then loses its vital structure, and dies.
Copper has multiple pathways to protect products. That makes it more difficult for bacteria to become resistant to its powerful effect.

In addition the copper formulations used in the linens are EPA registered[/vc_column_text][/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”Can Cupron Medical Textiles lead to resistance?”][vc_column_text]No, copper attacks microbes using a range of methods unlike a single method antibiotic. Copper formulations have been broadly used as fungicides and material preservatives with no reports of resistance.[/vc_column_text][/vc_accordion_tab][/vc_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row]
