Luxury Bedding Manufacturer United Feather & Down Announces Exclusive Partnership With X-STATIC - The Silver Fiber
Pinnacle Antimicrobial and Anti-Odor Silver Technology to be Incorporated Into Bedding Company's Products by 2008.
Des Plaines, IL (PRWEB) July 16, 2007 -- Leading luxury bedding manufacturer United Feather & Down today announces an exclusive partnership with Noble Biomaterials' groundbreaking X-STATIC® - The Silver Fiber. United Feather & Down is the sole pillow, mattress pad, and comforter manufacturer with rights to X-STATIC®, a unique, patented fiber with a layer of pure silver permanently bonded to it. X-STATIC® is the most potent antimicrobial and odor elimination system available today, and is the pinnacle of silver technology.
Proven by Nasa, the U.S. Army and by Johnson & Johnson in the form of Silver Bandages, X-Static® is now available in down and down alternative pillows, mattress pads and comforters.
This same medical-grade fiber is now available to consumers providing all of the natural benefits inherent to pure silver, including efficacy against bacteria and fungi, anti-odor benefits, thermal management (keeping you cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter) and anti-static properties - all beneficial properties for bedding. Additionally, X-STATIC® lasts for the life of a product and will never wear out or wash out.
"With its inherent anti-odor and anti-microbial properties, and the fact that the X-STATIC® fibers retain their tactile characteristics, we're confident this technology will be a beneficial addition to our product line," said Brandon Palmer, United Feather & Down Co-President. "X-STATIC® has been extensively tested and has been used successfully in high-tech industries for more than 20 years, and we're thrilled to be the first to introduce it to the bedding category."
Silver has long been recognized for its healing properties, and X-STATIC® eliminates 99.9 percent of bacteria in less than one hour of exposure. More importantly, X-STATIC® continues to have this potency for the life of the product. Prestigious institutions throughout the world have validated the antimicrobial performance and safety of X-STATIC® in published medical journals. United Feather & Down has developed an exclusive micro fiber down-alternative fill, called SilverFill™, that uses the natural silver in X-STATIC® fibers to deliver antimicrobial, anti-odor protection.
