smartcel™ sensitive is skin friendly thanks to zinc oxide’s soothing and anti-inflammatory capabilities. This is especially useful for people with sensitive skin or skin conditions such as eczema or neurodermatitis. Since zinc is a component of skin-building enzymes, it operates directly on the skin. An active exchange between the fiber and the skin occurs when the garment is worn.
Zinc oxide also acts as a shield against harmful UVA and UVB radiation, which can damage our skin cells. Depending on the percentage of smartcel™ sensitive used in any garment, it can provide up to 50 SPF.
Further to this, zinc oxide possesses strong antibacterial properties, especially against odour causing bacteria, which helps to make garments stay fresh longer.
