X-Static maker calls for more research on antimicrobial textiles

27/02/2014
Noble Biomaterials, the manufacturer of X-Static antimicrobial technology, has called for research papers to generate evidence supporting the need for soft surface bacterial management in healthcare settings. 

The call comes after newly released recommendations from the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America about contaminated healthcare personnel apparel in the hospital environment.

“Our vision to be the premier provider of bacterial management solutions for healthcare includes supporting the industry to generate the evidence-based practice it needs,” said Karin Mueller, vice-resident of marketing at Noble. “We expect our infection prevention partners to hold us to that standard and we’re equipped to meet and exceed those expectations.”

In January, Noble Biomaterials appointed Kelly Glowik as director of business development for sports and lifestyle.
