ESD Line

Cayman 5 Silver

cayman 5 silver

Warp-knit polyamide fabric with silver coated yarn.

Generally it is supplied combined with highly sweat absorbing conductive felts for internal lining, coupled with transpiring conductive cross-linked polyurethane foam or conductive thermoformable felts for the creation of ESD antibacterial insoles.

  • Antimicrobial: fights bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Klebisella Pneumonite
  • Antistatic/dissipative: the insertion of 5% of highly conductive diber disperses the electric charges produced and accumulated by the environment
  • Natural: it is a 100% natural yarn that is non-toxic and not subject to chemical treatments
  • Thermoregulating: the characteristics of electrical conductivity make it extremely confortable as it dissipates excess heat giving the sensation of cool in summer and warm in winter
  • Shielding: protects the body from the sbsorption of static energy, from electromagnetic fields and in clothing from UVA rays
  • Permanently: the structure of the yarn makes the affect cost over time even after numerous washes
