Silpure is the next generation in personal protection. 

Our unisex v-neck scrub tops and drawstring bottoms are not only manufactured using the finest poly cotton fabric, but our yarn is treated with Silpure.  Silpure is an active ingredient which makes the yarn bacteriostatic.  A silver ion additive is permanently embedded into the yarn's polymer matrix within each fiber.  Because the yarn is an inherent part of the fabric structure, it will not wash or wear out and offers antimicrobial protection for the life of the garment.  Since Silpure kills odor-causing bacteria,  Scrubs treated with SilPure leave you feeling cleaner and fresher.  Reducing microbial growth in healthcare environments is the goal of any dental or medical professional.

Textiles treated with Silpure are 100% safe for humans and do not affect allergies.  Silpure has an extensive list of Regulatory Approvals and it is environmentally friendly and non-toxic.   Silpure treatment will not be affected by laundering provided temperatures remain under 130° F.

Unlike scrubs that were designed for hospital use, Silpure treated scrub tops are not reversible, offering a much cleaner, single-pocket look.  Our garments are softer, stronger, more opaque, and our colors are more vivid than the leading competition.  The drawstring pants have a rear hip pocket.  The v-neck tops have set-in sleeves and a left breast pocket.  Both have safety stitched seams and reinforced stress points.  You get all this, plus the protection of Silpure, for just about what you're paying now for ordinary scrubs.  As with all Defend products, Silpure treated scrubs come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

NOTE: This list is only intended to give examples of the many types of micro-organisms that the Silpure products have been shown to inhibit in laboratory testing. The organisms used in the testing are those for which standardized cultures are freely available for laboratory study. Although some of these organisms are associated with pathogenic conditions, no health claims are made or implied concerning Silpure products.
