Bioactive Hospital Curtains Create Healthier Environment For Healthcare Facilities.

Dec. 1, 2009 - PRLog -- Hospital Curtain Solutions' bioactive hospital curtains reduce the formation and growth of bacteria by adding carrier-bound silver to the fiber polymer. The antimicrobial properties, as well as the flame-retardant effects, are permanent. Unlike topical antibacterial treatments that can cause skin irritations and chemical off-gassing, Bioactive hospital curtains use a natural technology that combats all known forms and types of bacteria, and cannot be washed away.

With Hospital Curtain Solutions' bioactive hospital curtains, the antimicrobial agent is based on silver and is bound with the curtain fiber. This agent creates a permanent antimicrobial effect that is unaffected by frequent washing. It functions on the surface of the fiber and does not migrate into the surrounding atmosphere. When bacteria come in approximation with the curtain, the silver ions in the textile damage them at the cellular level, preventing them from multiplying.

Hospital Curtain Solutions has a wide selection of Bioactive hospital curtains that they market directly to hospitals, assisted living facilities and medical clinics nationwide. These curtains come in a wide assortment of patterns and colors, from soothing botanicals to punchy pediatrics (http://www.hospitalcurtainsolutions.com/green_fabrics.html). Every hospital curtain manufactured by Hospital Curtain Solutions is inherently flame retardant and complies with NFPA 701 test requirements for vertical flammability.
