Technology and nature: the perfect combination for the good sleep

The companies of the Consortium of Italian Manufacturers of Quality Matresses, a non - profit association which brings together some of the leading brands of bedding industry, are testing for thew lining tissues of mattresses and pillows, a new material. It is made of zinc and cellulose fibers, antibacterical not to create irritations.  An important result for those suffering from skin irritation or disease, or simply for those who have a very sensitive skin such as newborns babies.  The new coating is developed by using nanotechnology which allows to incorporate zinc fibers in the fabric and cellulose fibers on its surface: the coatings obtained are soft to touch in a natural way, they do not contain chemicals and their antibacterical and odor properties are permanent and environmentally friendly. The zinc molecole interacts on bacterial  metabolism, causing a deterioration of the cell membrane by stopping the exchange of important substances for cell reproduction. In this way, odors and bacteria are kept under control. The fibers derived from trees cellulose, natural material deriving from sustainable and renewable crops, gives the fabric softness and breathability. http://mattresses.designfurniturefurnishing.com/articles/article/mattresses/1773/technology-and-nature-the-perfect-combination-for-the-good-sleep.html
