Dustmites : a real health problem
 

Dustmites are microscopic spiders that develop and proliferate mainly in the filling of quilts, pillows and matresses where they can find heat, moisture and nutriments. More than 80 % of dusmites (present in house dust) develop in the filling of bed linen.

Dustmites involve allergens which can create skin reactions (dermatitis), rhinitis and other serious allergies such as asthma (70 % of asthmatic cases in children). The World Health Organizations has classified allergies as the 6th rank of serious illnesses. According to countries, 10 % to 30 % of the population are affected by allergies.

Many allergists confirm that a one-off treatment (cover sheet fabric treated anti-dustmites), consisting of the prevention of dustmite growing only, is not sufficient since only a few pairs of dustmites can create enough allergens enough to cause an allergy.

A sole solution : eradicate all dustmites and prevent any infestation
One target : the core of the bed-linen

R.STAT grafted an anti-dustmites molecule onto a polyester fibrefill designed for pillows, quilts, matresses. This effective and long-lasting treatment stops all dustmite infestation in bed linen.



Effectivity of Nui’Zen anti dustmites fibres

   
95 % mortality at 8 days
100 % mortality at 4 weeks
100 % mortality at 6 weeks and more
Tests carried out by TEC French specialized laboratory.


Durability of Nui’Zen anti-dustmites fibrefill
Pillows containing Nui’Zen anti-dustmites fibrefill have been tested after 10 washings at 60°C and the anti-dustmites effectivity is still confirmed.

Technology and nature for well-being

Nui’Zen aromatherapy fibres are polyester fibres onto which have been grafted microencapsulated essential oils. They are composed of polyester dedicated to bed linen fibrefill in order to maintain their resilience and lightness.

   

Advantages

Essential oils are well-known for their different advantages : calming, antiseptic, sedative, releaving congestion… Essential oil exhalations have positive effects on our moods and thus can help us to cope with discomfort, stress, insomnia phenomena and bring a well-being to our day-life.


 

Applications

R.STAT grafted microencapsulated essential oils onto fibrefill.

 

   

Presentation




   

Rate of introduction

Nui’Zen aromatherapy fibrefill can be used in blend with any other regular fibrefill. 25 to 30 % are necessary in the final blend, depending on the filling process (blowing, carding…)

 

   

Duration

Essential oil exhalations are progressively and discreetly released after pressure or rubbing onto the bedlinen (pillow, quilt…)
It is possible to wash up to 5 times bedlinen containing Nui’Zen aromatherapy fibrefill (sensitive wash cycle, low temperature).

SilveR.STAT®
 


Silver and its numerous properties

Silver has been used for thousands of years for its antiseptic properties ; on wounds to ensure faster healing ; in materials dedicated to food-content (water, wine) in order to ensure better preservation. Silver is a natural non-toxic element. It has antibacterial properties –then anti-odour- and anti-fungi.

Antibacterial mechanism

Silver ions are released by the SilveR.STAT® fibre and enter the bacteria, destroying its cellular structure and thus preventing them from multiplying.

Consequences of bacteria
and fungi in textiles

Bacteria and fungi, when they multiply can cause :
• alteration of mechanical properties of fibres
• textile discoloration
• formation of odour
• potential pathologies (acne, conjunctivitis, infections…).

The antibacterial, antifungal and anti-septic properties of SilveR.STAT® are long-lasting and have been controlled after several washes of SilveR.STAT® fibres and of textiles containing SilveR.STAT fibres®

Other properties of silver coated fibres.
