Bags (and backpacks in particular) are a remarkably useful accessory and a product many of us will use on a daily basis. Whether it’s using them to carry gym gear, school books, or travel essentials, they’re supremely versatile. However, they are also a prime environment for bacterial growth. Sweaty gym clothes, damp towels, food containers, and general everyday use provide odor-causing bacteria with the perfect conditions for replication, often resulting in nasty smells.
Fortunately, there’s a solution – antibacterial backpacks protected by solutions like Polygiene StayFresh™.
An antimicrobial backpack leverages special additive technology to prevent the growth of bacteria and other microbes on and in the fibers. As bacteria are one of the primary causes of unpleasant odors (they produce them as part of their metabolic processes), antibacterial solutions play a critical role in keeping the fabric fresh and smell-free.
Common issues with regular, non-treated backpacks and bags include:
This issue was highlighted in a recent interview with Gregory Packs, which revealed that many customers prematurely dispose of backpacks because of bad odors. This has a significant impact on a product’s environmental footprint and is far less sustainable.
ABackpacks are not the only type of antibacterial bag available. Other designs include:
These drawstring designs are popular for their simplicity. Often used to transport sweaty workout clothes, these bags are prone to bacterial growth. Antibacterial bag treatments ensure they stay fresher for longer.
Used by athletes to carry all the gear needed to participate in their chosen sport, these bags trap sweat and grime. A treated sports bag reduces odor and limits bacterial growth.
Regularly used for toiletries, dirty garments, and snacks, carry cases are prone to odors, especially if you’re travelling for a longer period.
Some bags now feature compartments specifically designed for worn garments and unclean items. They include antibacterial-treated compartments for socks, gymwear, damp towels, underwear, and swimwear, enabling users to separate clean from dirty items.
TPolygiene produces numerous odor-control solutions for textiles. The two most prominent are Polygiene StayFresh and Polygiene OdorCrunch™.
Polygiene StayFresh is an antibacterial backpack solution. It helps prevent the growth of odor-causing bacteria on textiles, keeping bags fresh-smelling for longer. The technology provides 24/7 protection and reduces the need for frequent washing, enhancing a product’s eco-credentials by minimizing the resources required to maintain it.Polygiene OdorCrunch adds an extra layer of odor control by neutralizing environmental odors. Using sand-like silica particles, it captures and breaks down the molecules responsible for unpleasant odors, like smoke, food, and body odors. This makes it ideal for inclusion in bags used in outdoor settings or for travel.
You can find Polygiene technology in anti sweat backpacks and bags from some of the best-known brands on the planet.
Polygiene StayFresh™ and OdorCrunch™ solutions ensure bags and backpacks stay cleaner, fresher, and free from unpleasant smells. For users who carry a bag almost every day, antibacterial and odor control technologies can be a game changer and add considerable value to a product.
