TITAS 2020 Exhibitor introduction - HeiQ
HeiQ Viroblock – Innovation to solve the world’s most pressing issues
For 15 years HeiQ has been adding intelligence to textiles such as activated cooling, eco-friendly DWR, silver-free odor control, air purification and sustainable polyester dyeing solutions. While HeiQ’s antimicrobial range has always been leading in performance and global regulatory profile, the most iconic brand that has made headlines all over the world this year is HeiQ Viroblock – a technology that turns any fabric antiviral. Durable and effective in 2 minutes*, it is one of the first to be proven to destroy 99.99% SARS-CoV-2 (the virus causing COVID-19) in the laboratory. With a patent-applied formulation based on cosmetic, mainly bio-based ingredients, the technology has been adopted by over 100 brands around the globe in four months, enabling antiviral face masks, shirts, denim, bedding, mattresses and curtains to help the world through the pandemic, giving consumers the peace of mind to resume their normal lives as soon as they can.
Bestowed with the prestigious Swiss Technology Award and the Swiss Environmental Awards. HeiQ has a range of effective, durable, sustainable and high-performance textile innovations with bluesign® approval and OEKO-TEX conformity.
