ALTIFORM - BACTERIOSTATIC

Altiform are revolutionary stockings with advanced properties. They contain Meryl® SkinlifE fibres with an exclusive silver ion based bacteriostatic agent which inhibits bacterial growth in the fabric, maintains a natural balance on the skin regardless of activity level, and controls odour. As the agent is bound to the polymer, and not coated on the fabric's surface, it does not migrate from fabric to skin helping to reduce sensitivities (1). Altiform's bacteriostatic properties remain consistent to the end of the garment's life (2).
