Our next-gen biocide-free technology, inspired by nature & powered with environmentally-friendly ingredients, empowers textiles with a surface charge to enable a unique odor adsorption mechanism; it attracts, adsorbs and neutralizes unpleasant odor molecules to prevent the formation of ‘permastink’.
LIVINGUARD AO
Non-stop Freshness
THE SCIENCE
We empower materials with a positive charge
Electrostatic attraction adsorbs odor molecules
They are trapped and neutralized on the surface
Washing cycle releases the residue of neutralised odor molecules
Surface is refreshed and ready for action again
THE BENEFITS
Unparalleled biocide-free odor protection
Non-stop fresh
Proven to reduce >90% odor as per ISO 17299-3 even after washing
Effective even on polyester & other synthetics
Where other anti-odor technologies fall short, Livinguard provides consistent performance across all fabrics, especially polyester where odor build up remains a constant concern
Biocide-free
Powered with environmentally friendly active ingredients that do not require BPR or EPA approvals
Heavy-metal free
Safer for people and planet (unlike traditional, harsher biocides like silver, copper, zinc that have been identified as potentially harmful)
Durable
Works non-stop for up to 7 days without washing, extending the usable life of the end product
Skin safe
Tested for skin safety as per ISO 10993-5
