It is the first ever yarn where the fiber has an integrated solution called permethrin for protection against insects such as Mosquitoes, Ticks, Bed Bugs, Dust Mites and many more insects. Additionally it is completely safe and has no affect on human beings.
Protector Yarn
What Is Protector Yarn ?
Use of Protector Yarn
The Fiber is integrated with permethrin which along with being a component to Protect you against Deadly Insects has an active agent that has
- High Wash Stability
- UV Stability
- Active agent “Permethrin”
- A Life Long Function.
- Oko-Tex Class I certified fabrics
Efficiency
In practice if any mosquito sits on the article it will instantly fly away.
Multiple tests have been done with 100% mortality success rates against various insects.
It is a contact poison for Insects and has zero affect on human beings.
Permethrin the active agent instantly affects the nervous system of the insect and disorients the insect.
This is the most successful long term solution of a Fabric/Yarn against insects in the world today.
Permethrin
Treatment of fabrics by dipping or spraying (Evans et al. 1990, Eamsila et al. 1994,
Carnevale and Mouchet 1997 – IARAFT, c0= 1,250 mg/m2, Peripel 10, c0= 650 mg/m2
Incorporation of permethrin into wool and silk fibers by means of heat and salt treatment (Zimmermann and Höcker 1988)
Coating of permethrin – polymer – blends onto the surface of fabrics – UTEXBEL, c0= 1,300 mg/m2
