The material known as “Paratex® Antibacterial” is the latest breakthrough and technology in the field of fabrics with antimicrobial and antibacterial effects. The active substance is applied on all outer layers and linings of all Travelpak® products. The purpose of the application is always the same = to prevent the growth of bacteria and microbes.
The result of its application in practice is that this enhanced fabric does not produce any odors and it is not necessary to wash it traditionally to keep it fresh. This is ideal especially for longer trips and even in tropical environments, where temperatures are usually high and water availability is low, and when it is available, it is a waste to use it for washing as it is such a valuable commodity.
And a small note – all other well-known properties of Paratex® material (primarily its high breathability and water wicking away from the body) remain unaffected by this coating application.
