Sciessent is a leading provider of customized antimicrobial, odor control, and water repellent solutions. The company has just launched its new offering named “NOBO™ ANTI-ODOR.” The new finish has specifically been formulated to reduce the buildup and retention of odor in natural and synthetic fabrics. This affordable treatment utilizes mesoporous oxide, a benign, non-biocidal mineral that reaches full compliance for use in the EU. NOBO™ continuously captures, traps, and neutralizes olfactory offenders that build upon natural and synthetic fabrics – for the garment’s lifetime.
NOBOTM odor absorber technology regenerates with launderings, providing textile products with long-lasting, odor-free performance. NOBO™ can be incorporated into virtually any fabric and is ideal for daily-use garments, and variable application levels can eliminate odor
for the garment’s life.
The key benefits & features of the new technology include:
• Metal-free odor control
• Non-biocidal
• bluesign® approved and Oeko-Tex certified
• Regenerates with laundering
• Reduces odor – validated by the ISO 17299-3 test
• Durable – variable application levels can eliminate odor for the life of the garment • Environmentally friendly – NOBO™ has no negative impact on the environment during the wear or laundry process
• Maintains fabrics characteristics – no impact on hand, drape, or other attributes
Paul C. Ford, Sciessent CEO, said, “NOBO is a major addition to our product portfolio,” said. “This technology perfectly encapsulates our continued commitment to innovation and sustainability by providing brands with an inexpensive way to enhance and add value to their products while reducing the laundering frequency for consumers. In addition, NOBO does not require any biocidal registrations, so it will be the perfect odor control solution for wherever brands sell their products.”
