Polygiene
StayFreshBIO™

Polygiene StayFreshBio™ is a groundbreaking, 100% plant-based antimicrobial finish for textiles that is proven to inhibit the growth of microbes by up to 99.99%. ​ ​

Polygiene StayFreshBio is not only highly effective in reducing odor in textiles and garments, but it also contributes to reducing the environmental impact of garments as wearers can wear them more and wash them less. ​

BENEFITS OF POLYGIENE STAYFRESH BIO ANTIMICROBIAL FABRIC TECHNOLOGY

Mindful Living is inside everything we do

With reduced washing frequency and the use of gentler detergents, there’s a notable decrease in water consumption, CO2 emissions, energy usage, and time invested.

Moreover, there’s no need for premature disposal of textiles due to odor or microbial concerns. This approach also curtails the amount of detergents and microplastics finding their way into our oceans.
