Sustainability
Nanosilver done right.
Antimicrobial textile has a sustainability problem. We've spent a decade engineering ours out of the process — not into the marketing deck.
AngelThread® vs. conventional silver finishing
Conventional antimicrobial finishing relies on silver-chloride dip-and-dry routes — water, heat, chemistry, effluent. Vapor deposition swaps the chemistry for physics. Our internal measurements report the following reductions:
- -85%
- Water consumption
- -78%
- Energy use
- -92%
- Chemical additives
- -71%
- CO₂ emissions
- -89%
- COD in wastewater
Verification status
The figures above are internal lifecycle measurements versus a conventional silver-chloride dip-coating baseline. Third-party verification to ISO 14067 (carbon footprint) and ISO 14046 (water footprint) is on the 2026 roadmap. When verification completes we will publish the methodology and scope alongside the numbers.
Digital Product Passport — ready
EU ESPR introduces mandatory Digital Product Passports for textiles starting 19 July 2026 for large enterprises, with phased scope expansion through 2027-2028. Non-EU suppliers selling into EU markets must comply. AngelThread® data schema is structured to deliver DPP-ready fields on request:
- GTIN / product identifier
- Fibre composition and origin
- Manufacturing location (country, facility)
- Chemical compliance (REACH)
- Care and repair guidance
- End-of-life / recycling pathway
